The St. Nicholas Church House is perhaps the greatest home ever built -- take that White House! This bad boy that once housed the spirit of the good Lord is now a full-blown domesticated dwelling for us mere mortals.
The abode comes complete with stained glass, stone floors, flying buttress ceilings and two kitchens! The St. Nicholas Church house is one home that will make the divine jealous, that is, if the divine can get jealous.
