UPDATED: Developer Closes on Lizzie Chapel Property

Property will be converted into condos and single-family home.

INMAN PARK — A developer looking to redevelop the Lizzie Chapel Baptist Church property has closed on the deal, the C Group, a commercial real estate arm of KW Commercial Atlanta Midtown, said. Terms of the deal for the historic property at 850 Euclid Ave. were not disclosed. The church is slated to be developed into a single-family home by the buyer, Larry B. Culbertson, managing broker of the C Group, told East Atlanta Patch in a statement. Culbertson represented the seller, LBK Investments LLC. A confidentiality agreement barred him from disclosing the buyer. Some 18,000 square feet of the property is zoned for a small conodominium development, he said.

To clarify, the new owner is not the same developer who had the property under contract last year with plans to develop the condos. He terminated giving the new buyer the opportunity to secure the church and move forward with plans for a single family residence.   more ›

The townhomes in the Lizzie Chapel Lofts, the tentative name for the project, would be a mix 2-bedroom and 3-bedroom units and start in the low $300,000s, he said. The property, which is just off Druid Circle, has 20 parking spaces, including two handicapped-designated spots.

Visions For Vacancies

What Should Go Here?: Lizzie Chapel Baptist Church

Does this Inman Park house of worship have to stay so? Or can it be used as something else?

For years, I've driven by the old Lizzie Chapel Baptist Church and its starch white columns fronting an imposing brick building in Inman Park. For longer than I can remember, the church, located at the corner of Euclid Avenue and Druid Circle, has been for sale. It had me wondering: Who'd be in the market to buy a church and would the buyer have to use it as a church? After all, it's not unheard of to repurpose a church into something else. I've been to a few Protestant and Catholic churches in the Northeast and in France that had been converted into restaurants. And during my days at university, I'd go clubbing with friends at the Limelight, the former Episcopal Church of the Holy Communion in New York's Flatiron District. While I hardly …
