1601 NE MADISON Avenue Just a few blocks from Detweiller Marina and the Illinois River, is this stunningly beautiful stone church. Built in 1897, it is a true architectural gem steeped in the rich history of Peoria. With over 9600 square feet of space, this building presents a myriad of possibilities for its future owners and offers a unique opportunity for those seeking a property with character and charm. Step into the main level where you will be captivated by the sanctuary with its cathedral ceiling, white oak pews, organ, and 45 stained glass windows that cast brilliant colors across the room. Beyond the sanctuary is a set of rooms including one that would work well as an office or bedroom. Main level has multiple entrances giving it a functional layout for work or play and lower level also has its own exterior entry. The lower level consists of a large kitchen, pantry, storage rooms, office, 2 bathrooms (1 full, 1 half) and 4 former classrooms currently being used as bedrooms as well as a central spacious living area for entertaining. Zoned R4, the property offers flexibility in its potential use. See also MLS#PA1256674.
