Description
Step into a home where classic character meets modern-day comfort. Situated in a charming historic neighbourhood just minutes from downtown Kitchener, this well-maintained two-storey detached home offers plenty of warmth, natural light and original charm. The main floor features freshly painted interiors, beautiful original trim and inviting living spaces, while upstairs offers three bedrooms and a convenient 1.5 bathrooms. The attic provides additional potential and could easily be transformed into a home office, hobby space or bonus room. Outside, enjoy your morning coffee on the generous covered front porch or entertain on the rebuilt rear deck, completed in 2015. With shops, cafés, parks and transit all close by, plus convenient highway access, the location is hard to beat. Numerous updates provide added peace of mind, including windows (2012), furnace (2011, serviced October 2025), roof (2009) and air conditioner (2023). A great opportunity for first-time buyers, young families or investors looking for a character-filled home in a convenient Kitchener location. (id:63159)

Minimum down payment: 5% on the first $500,000, 10% on the portion up to $1.5M, 20% at/above $1.5M. 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.
