zoned r-1 residential, the property is permitted by right for conversion to residential uses, bed and breakfast, accessory dwelling unit, or continued religious, cultural, and institutional uses, including functions, schooling, retreats, and community events. the existing building footprint provides a solid foundation for adaptive reuse.

strategically positioned caddy-corner from edgmont’s c-1 neighborhood commercial district, which includes la porta restaurant, country deli, and other neighborhood-scale businesses, the site benefits from a mixed-use context while remaining within a primarily residential zoning designation.
