If Greater Boston’s influx of high-end condos and triple-decker renovations have you hoping for a more divine real estate inspiration, make your way down to 62 Estes Street in Lynn. No, you’re not at the wrong address — the private residence development started life as the Church of the Incarnation and its Gothic-style red brick and stone exterior remains at the corner of Estes and Broad Street.
Unit 2 encompasses half the converted church, which amounts to just under 2,200 square feet. Topped with soaring 30-foot ceilings — beamed cathedral ceilings, naturally — the interior feels substantial and loft-like. Light comes pouring in from the oversized Gothic windows and clerestories, illuminating the open layout in a dramatic way. Entertaining, dedicating a portion of the living area to an art studio, or letting your imagination run wild, it’s all possible with so much open space.
Thankfully, the loft-style residence does include two private bedrooms and a full bathroom so you have quiet places to retreat to when it’s time to turn it in.
Other essential details include a private entrance, new high-efficiency heat and air-conditioning, parking for three vehicles, and proximity to Lynn Shore Reservation and Red Rock Park.
Open house hours are Sunday, Sept. 29, from noon to 1:30 p.m.
On the market for $799,000, the sale of the home is represented by Paul B. Campano with Keller Williams Realty Boston Northwest, 617-304-3686.
