I'd go with option 1. Why? Because if (should be iff here) you're able to find a decent room, you can give your record a very unique sound by making use of the room. (Yes, do record the room, if it's something church-like, e.g. lots of reverb, best with a pair of PZM half-omnis. Then you won't need artifical reverb). And this way, your record will sound very unique - basically, Daniel Lanois had been famous to work like this even before the days of computer-based studios by not using a studio in the traditional sense for his productions, rather finding a nice location and then schlepping his studio gear there.
