Property Description
Historic Church Along the Delaware River~
Set along the serene banks of the West Branch of the Delaware River, just steps from the iconic Fitch's Covered Bridge, this remarkable former church with a historic legacy offers a rare and meaningful opportunity with an extraordinary setting for future endeavors. Built circa 1860, the structure embodies the craftsmanship and spirit of its era—its soaring tower, adornment of thirteen spires and a striking twelve-pointed star rising as a testament to history, reflection, and inspiration.
The setting is equally compelling. The property encompasses approximately 0.86+/- acre, much of which serves as a historic cemetery. Views of the river and access to its waters further enhance the contemplative nature of this special site, while the nearby Bramley Mountain Fire Tower, village of Delhi, and Catskill attractions add to its sense of place.
Inside, the building retains its historic character, including original wood floors, fixed pews, raised platform, 16' ceiling, and balcony with ceiling hatch access to the attic and belfry. With 200-amp electric service, chemical toilet, and a hot air heating system, the basics are in place, though the structure is in need of a roof and the property lacks water and septic. The building rests on a stone foundation with crawlspace access.
This property is listed on the New York State Register of Historic Places, and while insurable title is not being provided, its possibilities remain inspiring. The setting and structure lend themselves beautifully to uses such as an artist's retreat or residency, a contemplative or interpretive center, or other community-minded or creative endeavors.
This is an exceptional chance to carry forward the story of a historic Catskills landmark in a setting that inspires reflection and creativity.
