OWN A PIECE OF FINGER LAKES HISTORY! Steeped in more than 220 years of history, Covert Baptist Church presents a truly unique opportunity in Interlaken, NY! Originally established on February 16, 1803, under its first pastor, Minor Thomas, this historic congregation became known as the “Mother Church” of the Seneca Baptist Association. The present church building dates to approximately 1850 and showcases the timeless character of 19th-century Greek Revival architecture. Recognized as part of the Covert Historic District, which was added to the National Register of Historic Places in 1980, this remarkable property has been a cherished part of the community for generations. Located in the scenic Finger Lakes region, it offers an opportunity to preserve a meaningful piece of local history while exploring possibilities for its future. Continue its legacy as a place of worship, establish a community gathering space, or investigate creative adaptive reuse opportunities! The Town of Covert does not utilize traditional zoning districts; properties are governed by its Land Management Ordinance. All proposed uses and conversions are subject to applicable municipal approvals and regulations. A rare opportunity to own a property with a remarkable past and the potential for an exciting new chapter!
