Property Description

Zoned R3 with a wide range of permitted uses including café, coffee shop, owner occupied bed and breakfast, church, gallery, or boutique commercial space, this unique property offers exceptional flexibility for residential or income producing use. Originally built in 1902, the historic church has been thoughtfully transformed into a striking 4 bedroom property that blends architectural character with modern functionality. The dramatic open concept main space is anchored by original stained glass windows that fill the interior with natural light, creating an ideal setting for hospitality, retail, or event driven concepts, while a designer kitchen with a pass through layout supports both private and commercial use. A contemporary addition provides multiple private suites and flexible living or workspace with the ability to separate public and private areas, making it well suited for a live work concept or boutique lodging opportunity. The property sits on a generous lot with a large private backyard shaded by a mature oak, offering additional potential for outdoor use or gatherings. Located in Thunderbolt, a walkable riverfront community just minutes from downtown Savannah, this is a rare opportunity to acquire a versatile and architecturally significant property. Zoning and permitted uses to be confirmed by buyer.
