You'll love this charming Century Home in Downtown Kitchener. Perched on a hill overlooking the city, this 3 + 1 bedroom, 2-bathroom home pairs original character with extensive updates. Thick brick walls quiet the outside world, while large windows and high ceilings keep the main floor bright and open. Recent updates include a fully renovated kitchen (2021), main level flooring (2021), furnace and A/C (2021), new windows (2023), a fully renovated upstairs bathroom (2025), and new basement flooring and steps (2026). You'll also find an inviting sunroom and private office on the main floor, as well as a finished basement which is rare for a home of this age. Outside, enjoy a newer deck and pergola (2024), pre-wiring for electric car, a detached garage, and updated patio and landscaping - all on a 150ft deep lot, rare for a downtown setting. Set 10 feet above Charles Street over a beautiful mural, the height and cedar trees offer privacy. Although Charles Street may look like a busy road, it's much quieter than you'd expect because it caters to foot traffic, buses and the LRT. The layout adapts easily to different needs, with storage throughout. Set on a quiet, friendly street, you're walking distance to schools, the Iron Horse Trail, and an LRT stop, with great restaurants, bakeries, and grocery stores nearby, plus easy highway access. A home with history, well cared-for and ready for its next chapter.
