A remarkable opportunity as much as it is rare. The former Peoples Memorial Church is a solid and well kept almost 10000 sf building on a high profile 86 x 193 corner lot, at the centre of one of the prettiest, and most historic small towns in Ontario. It's 94' high steeple has towered over Ridgeway since 1872, and has been a local landmark seen from miles away. The possibilities are literally endless for a creative and skilled purchaser with historic sensibilities. This property could lend itself to many types of mixed use redevelopment. A mixture of commercial and residential in the rear, along with the historic main sanctuary building. The main structure has been added onto and expanded over the years, from a Sunday school addition in 1910, a basement in 1925, the gymnasium in 1932 and the rear large kitchen area of the building after that. A mixture of apartments, community uses and commercial redevelopment done in a historic manner in keeping with the history of both this property and the village, if done properly, would no doubt be well received and a welcome addition to the town. Full height basement adds another 3000 sf, and features large windows and lots of light which create further opportunity. For anyone looking for a unique, historic, and breathtaking undertaking, this could be the right property for you, and a great chance to be apart of helping to improve and accentuate this incredible community for the next 150 years! Buyer to satisfy themselves with regards to any zoning, permits, servicing, etc with the Town of Fort Erie. (id:47423)
