This incredible, once in a lifetime, vintage Oshawa property simply astounds! Built in 1940 by the Ansley family, the spectacular house and grounds exude character, craftsmanship and timeless elegance, from its massive 1.16 acre lot, to its handsomely preserved and improved interior. Magnificent is truly the word to use! Lovingly maintained, thoughtfully updated and mindfully stewarded by the current owner for 40 years, there is a rich Oshawa history attached to the property, which once encompassed acres of land. The current owner is only the second owner to ever claim title to 690 Bessborough, having bought the estate directly from Mrs. Ansley herself in 1985. With the spectacular grounds, impeccable location, and phenomenal home, 690 Bessborough is truly an unparalleled offering and a unique opportunity to own a landmark property of Oshawa's noble history.
