Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

The property includes an early 1900s Gothic-style church and a 1960s elementary school building set on a 1.50-acre corner lot. The church totals just over 14,000 square feet, with a first-floor core area of approximately 7,120 square feet and 30-foot ceiling height. A basement is also included at a similar size, with about 70% finished area. The school building is described as approximately 14,688+/- square feet. The site provides about 50 paved, on-site parking spaces and is connected to city sewer and city water, with natural gas available. The property is being sold in an “AS IS and Where IS” condition.

In 2023, the owners received conditional approval by special exception from the Torrington Planning and Zoning to convert the school into apartments. The surrounding neighborhood is described as multi-family homes and small garden-style apartments, with retail, banking, variety of shopping, pharmacies, food venues, and nearby services.

This assemblage is best suited to a builder or investor or other buyer looking to rehab and repurpose the existing educational structure into apartments under the approved conditional exception. The combination of high-ceiling church space, substantial interior volume, and on-site parking supports adaptive reuse planning for multiple end-user or conversion concepts, subject to the buyer’s due diligence and permitting.
