Description
A building with a story - and so many possibilities for its next chapter! Located at 303 W Palm St in Roodhouse, this unique property is currently being used as a church, but its flexible layout and two included lots open the door to a wide variety of potential uses. Originally built as a YMCA for railroad workers and later serving as the American Legion, this property is full of local history and character. Whether you envision transforming it into a one-of-a-kind single-family home, apartments, a wedding or event venue, community building, youth center, office space, or another creative use, there is plenty of room to dream. The building offers multiple gathering and functional spaces, and all appliances will remain. Recent improvements include a new upstairs furnace installed in November 2024, a new motor for the outside central air unit in 2023, and a roof replaced approximately in 2013. If you love historic buildings, unique properties, or the opportunity to create something truly special, this one deserves a look. Bring your ideas and imagine what the next chapter of this Roodhouse landmark could be! Property includes two lots. Buyer to verify all data.
