Remarks
Custom built in 1967 as a place of worship, this 5,342 square foot one-story brick structure sits on 1.23 acres on a corner lot, just outside the city limits of Opelousas. It offers an amazing location with exceptional visibility in a high traffic area near shopping, banking and I-49. Designed in a striking mid-century modern A-frame style, the building features an eye-catching architectural presence with a minimalist, sleek and highly functional design. Inside, the property offers a spacious open floor plan highlighted by soaring tongue-in-groove wood ceilings that create warm, inviting tones to a true sense of sanctuary. Existing improvements include a covered portico, baptistry, sanctuary, vestibule, seven classrooms/office areas, and two bathrooms, allowing for immediate functionality while still offering endless possibilities for reconfiguration or expansion. The large lot provides ample room for additional parking, further enhancing its flexibility. Potential uses are noted as a worship center, reception or event hall, office or retail space, daycare or adult daycare, and more. Appraised in 2025, this property combines practical design, versatility and location, making it a rare opportunity for a wide range of commercial or community-focused uses.
