Description

This Historic Victorian Home, built by Albert P. Hine became the cherished home of William E. Besse (Charlene Susan Besse Park, Elise Besse Park, Major Besse Drive) in 1903. The late century Architectural design, present throughout the home, has been restored meticulously with no expense spared. Some of the many original features include the dual porches and widow walk, original Lincrusta wall paper, hardwood inlays floors, stunning ornamental ceilings. In addition to the four bedrooms and full bathroom on the upper floor there also is a large room featuring a gas fire place that has been dubbed " The Major room." The second floor bathroom retains many of the original period fixtures. As you pass through the front door, you'll feel like you've stepped back into the early 1900's yester year's charm until you enter the modern kitchen, with granite counters, heated tile floor and top of the line Stainless Steel appliances. Additional feature, off the kitchen, is its private the low maintenance Trex deck with awning which is an enchanting area to entertain on or enjoy a relaxing beverage or your morning tea/coffee. An original carriage house which still retains its charm. The home is a treasure inside and out for sure! This home has had several uses over the years and possibly can go back to be zoned for Light Business, there are so many possibilities medical, legal or possible B & B with parking. Torrington Zoning Allows Artists to Live & Work in same space! The property could possibly be not only a home, it could be light business or B & B!! Torrington Zoning Allows Artists To Live & Work in the Same Space!!! Opportunity!!
