Description
Built in 1894, this stunning legal triplex offers the rare opportunity to own a piece of Kitchener’s history while embracing the lifestyle and energy of Downtown living. Perfectly positioned directly across from Hibner Park in the heart of the Civic Centre neighbourhood, this character-filled century home blends timeless architecture, walkable convenience, and strong investment potential. Imagine mornings spent walking to your favourite local cafe's, afternoons enjoying the park and green space across the street, and evenings taking in a show at Centre In The Square or dining at one of Downtown Kitchener’s growing restaurants and gathering spaces. With the GO Train and VIA Rail station nearby along with the Google offices and tech corridor, this location offers an ideal balance of lifestyle, connectivity, and long-term value. Inside, each unit carries its own warmth and charm with historic details, large windows, and inviting living spaces filled with natural light. The property features one spacious 3-bedroom, 1-bathroom unit and two bright 2-bedroom, 1-bathroom units, all above grade, creating flexibility for multigenerational living, owner occupancy, or investment income. The upper unit was fully renovated in 2025 with a brand new kitchen, updated bathroom, and an incredible rooftop deck tucked amongst mature trees overlooking the park, the perfect setting for slow mornings, summer evenings, or entertaining friends above the city skyline. Additional highlights include two separate concrete driveways with parking for up to six vehicles, coin-operated laundry, and an efficient Viessmann boiler system. Rich in character, surrounded by mature neighbourhood charm, and loved and cared for by the same owners for the past 36 years, this is a truly special opportunity in one of Kitchener’s most storied neighbourhoods.

Stress test: OSFI's minimum qualifying rate, the greater of contract rate + 2% or 5.25% — this is what lenders require you to qualify at, not what you'll actually pay. Closing costs are a typical-range estimate, not a quote — actual legal fees vary. Land Transfer Tax is the Ontario provincial schedule, before any first-time buyer refund; only the City of Toronto charges a municipal land transfer tax on top, so none applies in the areas this site covers (Ontario Ministry of Finance, ontario.ca/document/land-transfer-tax, as of October 28, 2026). Verify all figures with a mortgage broker and lawyer before relying on them.
