This historic 44,720-square-foot church in downtown Battle Creek is now available for sale. The property features a diverse mix of worship, office, classroom, and event spaces. Zoned T-4, it offers flexibility for a variety of alternative or adaptive reuses.
Currently occupied by multiple tenants—including a licensed daycare, recording studio, music education group, caterer, and event space—the building functions well as a shared community hub. It’s equally suited for a single-user owner-occupant or a multi-tenant setup supporting arts, education, office space or social services.
Architectural character is preserved through stained glass, vaulted ceilings, and woodwork, while upgraded and modernized sections support flexible use for events, education, office, and institutional operations.
