Description
A Rare Downtown Residence with the Space of a Bungalow Nearly 1,500 sq. ft. in the heart of Downtown Kitchener—and not an inch of it feels like typical condo living. Unit 105 at 165 Duke Street East is an exceptionally spacious 2-bedroom plus den, 2-bathroom residence offering the proportions, comfort and versatility more often associated with a bungalow, paired with the freedom of a low-maintenance lifestyle. The updated kitchen is both stylish and practical, with contemporary finishes, generous storage and an effortless connection to the expansive living and dining areas. There is genuine room to entertain, accommodate full-sized furnishings and create a home that feels substantial rather than scaled down. Both bedrooms are impressively sized, while the separate den adds valuable flexibility as a private office, library or guest space. Beyond the suite, a beautifully landscaped private courtyard provides a quiet outdoor escape tucked away from the energy of the city. And the location is difficult to beat. The Kitchener Farmers’ Market, ION LRT, independent cafés, bakeries, restaurants, specialty food shops and Downtown’s growing tech community are all within an easy walk. Perhaps most exceptional is the tandem 2-car underground parking—a genuine rarity in the downtown core. With condo fees of approximately $0.59 per sq. ft., the value is equally compelling, particularly for a residence of this scale. For those who want the convenience and energy of downtown living without sacrificing space, parking or comfort, Unit 105 offers something increasingly difficult to find. (id:63159)

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.
