    I've seen several homes on Cape Cod converted from churches (and lighthouses.) Two things: fantastic open space and great molding. I could easily go this route.

    Have you seen the converted church condos in Mt. Vernon? I got a chance to see them when they were originally done, about 15 years ago. I forget if the church is on Calvert or St. Paul. Anyway, Marin Alsop now lives there. The space is magnificent.

    There's also a great one in (my beloved) Cape May. They renovated an old wooden church with a gorgeous steeple and stained glass windows into 3 condos. Trouble is they cost over a million each. Ah, well, a gal can dream . . . !

    Wow - I'm a believer! Always have wanted to renovate an old church - they have such wonderful space - with ultra-high ceilings and tall windows.

    Just drive on over to corner of Plyers Mill Road and St. Paul Street in Kensington, Maryland to see what had been a little Methodist country church, from 1883, converted to a house in 1922 - and I was lucky to have lived there!

    They're living my dream,
    first choice - church,
    next - old schoolhouse...
    or a barn...a really cool old small barn, with a stone wall...
