Built to serve the Polish Catholic iron ore mining families of Witherbee, this two-building property pairs a 4-bedroom, 2-bathroom rectory residence with a 2,000+ square-foot former church sanctuary without deed restrictions. The 2,664-square-foot rectory features wood floors throughout, four bedrooms, and an enclosed porch on each level. The custom tiled bathroom includes a jetted soaking tub and a separate walk-in shower. The rectory works as a full-time residence, a second home, a caretaker's quarters, or guest lodging alongside the church. The church building offers more than 2,000 square feet of open floor plan beneath its original stained glass windows. The sanctuary can serve as an event venue, wedding and reception hall, art gallery, artist or maker studio, recording studio, performance and concert space, yoga or wellness studio, retreat center, co-working space, cafe, antique showroom, museum, or one-of-a-kind residence. Combined with the rectory, the property also suits a live-work arrangement, a bed and breakfast, or a retreat with on-site lodging. The opportunities are endless. The 2-acre lot gives room for plenty of parking, gardens, and outdoor ceremonies. Witherbee is minutes from Port Henry, with Lake Champlain marinas, boat launches, and waterfront parks. Lake Placid, NY and Burlington, VT are each just over an hour away, which puts Olympic Region attractions, ski areas, airports, and Vermont's largest city within day-trip range. St. Michael's Church and Rectory in Witherbee, NY is a rare chance to own a piece of Moriah's iron mining heritage with the freedom to define its next chapter. Being sold As-Is. Buyers must verify all intended uses with Town of Moriah zoning/building department. ## Location - **Address:** 40 Wasson Street, Witherbee, NY 12998 - **County:** Essex - **Coordinates:** 44.084629, -73.53121 - **Google Maps:** https://www.google.com/maps?q=44.084629,-73.53121 ## Listing Agent - **Name:** Chase Jermano - **Brokerage:** Tina Leonard Real Estate - **Broker Phone:** 5185233224 - **Listing URL:** [View original listing](https://www.realtor.com/realestateandhomes-detail/40-Wasson-St_Witherbee_NY_12998_M44606-35288?f=listhub&s=ACVMLSNY&m=208607&c=propsimple) ## Photos ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 1](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3537612515r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 2](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f4099693153r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 3](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3003187216r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 4](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f60263098r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 5](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3600013594r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 6](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2677148020r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 7](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2496150144r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 8](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f224952015r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 9](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3128936791r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 10](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f595112239r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 11](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f1488276192r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 12](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f1856368955r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 13](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f1236006405r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 14](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f1553180966r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 15](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f960095217r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 16](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f760669067r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 17](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2862193943r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 18](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3633612289r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 19](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2112152136r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 20](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f180756252r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 21](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f996307089r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 22](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f58920137r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 23](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3474258892r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 24](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3819834780r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 25](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2142116889r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 26](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2371151570r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 27](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3342964159r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 28](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f967399381r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 29](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f431955467r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 30](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f558367854r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 31](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f151780855r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 32](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f3096030936r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 33](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f1578591882r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 34](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f121034885r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 35](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f4223534640r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 36](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f106355489r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 37](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f1819376828r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 38](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f4109268285r.jpg) ![40 Wasson Street - Photo 39](http://lh.rdcpix.com/e6906166ff0da30d2b79c78f04e73cdbl-f2209202138r.jpg) --- **MLS#:** 208607 | **Updated:** 2026-10-28 **Source:** listhub *Copyright © 2026 Adirondack Champlain Valley MLS.
