607 6th Street, Deshler, NE – MAP
Offered at $70,000
Located on a spacious corner lot in the heart of Deshler, this distinctive former church offers historic character, generous space, and countless possibilities for its next owner.
The building retains many of the features that make an old church so special, including a tall steeple, traditional arched windows, original wooden pews, decorative ceilings, and its church bell. From the street, the building has an unmistakable presence and could become a memorable home, studio, event space, retreat, community venue, business location, or creative restoration project.
Historic Character with a Head Start on Restoration
Restoration work has already begun in the main sanctuary. The large, open nave features high ceilings, beautiful architectural details, original woodwork, and abundant natural light. Some areas still require finishing, giving the new owner an opportunity to preserve the building’s history while shaping the space around a new purpose.
The exterior also needs additional work and cosmetic attention, but the building appears solid and offers an impressive foundation for continued restoration.
A Finished Lower Level Ready to Use
The finished basement provides a comfortable and highly usable space while work continues upstairs. It features polished wood flooring, open gathering areas, appliances, a bar or kitchenette area, lighting, and flexible rooms that could serve as living, dining, entertaining, office, studio, or workshop space.
Many artistic touches throughout!
