History
Built in 1870 in the coal mining village of Locust Gap, the former St. Joseph's Church served the community for over a hundred years. The property sat empty for years, with no heat, a crumbling bell tower and falling plaster until in 2014 it was purchased to be restored into a working studio, home and retreat for people who love to create in beautiful places.
