INCREDIBLE LOCATION within walking distance of UPTOWN WATERLOO or DOWNTOWN KITCHENER. Discover the timeless charm of this Century Home, where warmth, character, & modern updates come together. Distinctive details such as STAINED GLASS WINDOWS & doors, glass door knobs, TIFFANY GLASS FIXTURES, 8’8” ceilings, & intricate moldings set the stage for this unique residence. Inside, craftsmanship shines throughout: HARDWOOD FLOORS in the foyer & dining room, FRENCH DOORS, NEW CARPET in the living & family rooms (with hardwood underneath), & a bedroom with balcony access overlooking the yard, complete with built-in shelving, cabinetry, & a sink. The kitchen, main bath, & upstairs hallway feature custom NORCRAFT SOLID CHERRY CABINETRY, while the 4-piece bathroom includes additional built-ins. A 3-piece bath is located in the basement along with a raised-floor rec room, ideal for a gym or studio. The FULL ATTIC LOFT was reimagined for maximum height, featuring SKYLIGHTS, oak parquet flooring, a rough-in for a bar sink, & a dedicated stereo panel—perfect as a lounge or creative space. Additional upgrades include a DEDICATED OUTDOOR ELECTRICAL PANEL for the hot tub, gazebo, & dimmable deck lighting. Outdoors, the former garage has been converted into a charming GABEZO, & while the Hydropool hot tub has not been used in years, it was professionally closed. The fully fenced yard, once featured in the Kitchener Blooms calendar, still boasts a variety of established landscaping plants including hostas, grasses, & ferns. With a little refresh, it could easily be restored to its award-winning beauty. MOST APPLIANCES ARE NEW OR NEARLY NEW, & while the home features updated copper wiring, some knob-and-tube remains in the bedrooms. A truly special home, rich in history yet well-suited for today’s lifestyle. (id:38551)
