ONE homeowner's prayers were answered when she found a church that she transformed into her dream home. <\/p>\n

She might have made it more livable, but she still kept a striking original feature. <\/p>\n

"When you remodel a church built in 1842 and turn it into your home," said Samantha Stoltz (@samanthastoltz0). <\/p>\n

She gave a tour of the historic bi-level property with a multitude of modern upgrades. <\/p>\n

Still, her tall, stained glass windows were clearly from the home's pre-renovation days as a religious institution. <\/p>\n

Her pointed front door was also a telltale sign of the space's previous life. <\/p>\n

Samantha's newer additions included an open kitchen with an island in the middle and stainless steel appliances. <\/p>\n

Two steps led up to her bedroom with a trio of more leftover lancet windows. <\/p>\n

Other features included a living area with a flat-screen TV and a velvet blue sofa. <\/p>\n

A spiral staircase led to her upstairs area with a balcony looking down on her renovated space that now looked more like a penthouse than a former prayer pew. <\/p>\n

Still, a converted place of worship might not answer all of your dream home prayers.<\/p>\n

According to the website sharestates.com, converting religious spaces into homes is continuing to trend, but that doesn't mean that the renovation process doesn't come without challenges. <\/p>\n
