Sorrento Community Building
From its early beginnings as the Sorrento Grammar School (built by Ed Hale in 1941 and operated until 1975 when the Mountain View School was built) to its function as a community center today, the Sorrento Community Building has always been treasured as a valuable resource by the town. It is now used regularly for town meetings, voting, community gatherings and private functions.
​
The building boasts a full kitchen and over 1,200 square feet of meeting space in the main room. Beautifully painted with many lovingly maintained original details, ceilings over 20 feet high and plenty of chairs and tables, the space is a highly desirable gather space.
