First Congregational United Church of Christ: Redevelopment Options

Purchase Opportunity  

The church, annex and parking lot are for sale. The facility is approx. 13,600 square feet for the church building and 2,976 for the annex (218 N. Adams, Ypsilanti).

     
Sale Price  

Church $400,000

Church and Annex $650,000

Sale Description
  The Ypsilanti Planning department has indicated that the property could be purchased under a condominium arrangement where the parking lot is shared common area and the church is under one ownership and the annex is under another ownership. Thus the church could be sold separately from the annex.
Loft Redevelopment
  The Ypsilanti Planning department has indicated that the property could be redeveloped with the annex being one condominium and the church could be redeveloped into three to five more residential condominiums. The existing parking could meet the requirements. This could accommodate loft development.
Excluded Fixtures
  The pipe organ and stain glass windows are excluded from the sale. If a church wants to have the pipe organ and stain glass windows included in the sale then we can negotiate those items. If the property is redeveloped or sold for another use, the owner will contract to have the stain glass windows and pipe organ removed from the building.
Property Description
  The property was built in two phases starting in 1898 with the annex being added in 1982
Handicap Access
  A handicap ramp is on the south side of the annex building. It provides access to the sanctuary. Handicap bathrooms are in the annex building.
Parking Lot Description
  54 parking spaces (with 3 handicap parking spaces). Surface street parking is available on Emmett and city parking lots are one block south on Adams.
Heating and Cooling
  The building has a boiler for heat.
Annex Description
  The annex is approx. 62 ft by 48 ft and was added in 1982. It has forced air heat and is fully air conditioned. It has handicap bathrooms and a ramp to the south. The building has four offices/classrooms and a large multipurpose room. First Congregational United Church of Christ would like to continue to worship in this building. They would be interested in working out a condominium arrangement or a long term lease for the annex building. The annex building was re-roofed in 2007.
