    I was looking everywhere on the formerglory website for a fabulous church conversion in Galway but couldn't find it. Just found it there a few mins ago,they had moved it on the website from the fully restored section.
    There are four pages of detailed photos of the restoration project.

    Some amount of churches out there for sale. Away more than I would have imagined.

    €295k for a huge church, if only I had some money!

    I could be well of the mark but I reckon €295k would look like loose change all the same by the time you get this particular church up to scratch as living accommodation.

    I think the one in Limerick is owned by Doc of what was Doc's nightclub.

    Yeah your right, very nice place though. Himself and the missus kept the original features like the confessional was the coat closet on the way in

    Wow, now thats some conversion! I think that must be the most unconventional kitchen in Ireland:). Altar area reminds me very much of the altar area in my local church apart from the fact theres an altar with a pulpit and tabernacle in my local church and well, a kitchen in this one. Very similar dimensions and layout though with a side door off the altar to the sacristy in the exact same place.

    Specification of the finish appears to be very high. Would imagine the conversion cost an absolute fortune. Would seem that those completing the conversion were cognisant of heating costs and heat retention also.

    Apologies for digging up a two year old topic but I discovered last night that the wonderful restored church that appeared on Grand Designs has just come on the market. From what I remember the couple who own it paid more than this to restore it;
