Nestled in the heart of historic Odessa, Delaware, this architectural masterpiece exudes history, charm, and endless possibilities.

Upstairs, the breathtaking sanctuary boasts a stunning balcony, oak pews, and soaring ceilings that highlight the building’s grand design. Hand-crafted stained glass windows, each over 16 feet tall, fill the space with vibrant light, while gleaming hardwood floors, a dramatic chandelier, and new wall sconces add to the historic charm. Despite its rich past, the building is fully equipped with modern comforts, including central air conditioning and heat. One of its most remarkable features is the exquisite Tracker organ, built in the mid-1880s and encased in a magnificent walnut cabinet, making it a true musical treasure.
