About 229 E Commerce St Unit 1

Welcome to The Bell Tower – a rare blend of history, elegance, and modern living, featured twice in the Milford Historic Home Tour. This extraordinary 1903 former St. Mary’s Church has been thoughtfully transformed into a nearly 1,600-square-foot condo in the heart of walkable, vibrant downtown Milford. Step into the grand foyer and prepare to be awed. Soaring cathedral ceilings, expansive fieldstone walls, and gleaming wood floors – reclaimed from the original church – create a space that’s both majestic and warmly livable. The efficient layout offers 2 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and generous space to live, work, entertain and unwind. An open floorplan and vertical scale create a sense of volume and airiness. Every detail speaks of craftsmanship and character, from the iron railings and gorgeous stone walls to the arched wooden door that covers what was once the choir loft. Five Stations of the Cross are artfully set into the stone, honoring the building’s heritage, while a domed baptismal recess now serves as a serene office. Beautiful stained glass windows bathe the interior in magical light, blending the sacred with the spectacular. The main-floor primary suite features stone arch columns leading to the original confessional, a walk-in closet, and a private bath with shower and Japanese soaking tub – offering timeless charm with modern luxury. Upstairs, a loft-style guest suite or additional lounge area (with full bath) overlooks the main level. Outside, a private side patio framed by lovely trees invites quiet mornings or festive evenings. With two dedicated carport spaces and unbeatable access to Milford’s shops, parks, restaurants, and festivals, The Bell Tower is a lifestyle as connected as it is secluded. Modern yet historic. A spectacle of grandeur that is remarkably cozy. This retreat is a home like no other.
