The Tower House is a unique 1860 Victorian home in a park-like setting just one block from Beacon’s extraordinary Main Street. It features two* private residences—Garden and Tower—each with their own distinct character. Former Beacon City Planner John Clarke wrote of this house: “The architecture contains elements of Gothic Revival, Italian Villa, and second empire styles. This house is one of the most intact examples of type, scale and period in the City. It possesses special historic and aesthetic value as part of the cultural history of the city.” *The Tower House is currently a legal two-family home, but could easily be returned to a grand single family residence. Both residences offer radiator heat with thermostatic valves for room by room control. There is a 30' x 24' outbuilding/garage with a 16' garage door and 2 skylights. It is currently set up as an artist studio with 2 short walls on wheels that can be moved back to allow for 2 cars and the driveway allows for another 4 cars. The GARDEN RESIDENCE features a large back deck and garden, 1510 square feet of space on the first floor—with a living room, den, 2 bedrooms, full bath, kitchen with Quartz counters and stainless-steel appliances. Add the bonus 600 square feet of walk-out space at the garden level with full bath and laundry and you have all the room you need for a home and more. The Garden Residence has two private entrances. The TOWER RESIDENCE features a front porch and yard, large entry foyer, 1474 square feet of space on the 2nd floor—living room, three bedrooms, full bath, bright eat-in-kitchen with Quartz counters and stainless-steel appliances, laundry, and 3rd and 4th floor tower rooms that are ideal for den or office space. (There is also unfinished storage space on the 3rd floor.) Overall, about 1700 square feet plus additional storage. The Tower Residence has a private entrance on Church Street.
