224 Montreal Street

LOCATED IN THE HEART OF DOWNTOWN KINGSTON, WALK TO STORES, SCHOOLS AND PARKS, COFFEE SHOPS AND THE RIDEAU RIVER WALKWAY. THIS HOME HAS BEEN LOVINGLY CARED FOR BY THE SAME OWNER SINCE 1936. THE CURRENT OWNER WAS BORN HERE IN 1937 AND HAS LIVED HERE EVER SINCE. A LOVELY FENCED BACKYARD WITH LILYS AND A NICE YARD COULD BE YOURS. THE OWNER'S FATHER WAS A SHOE MAKER AND USED THE FRONT ROOM WITH AN OFFICE AS HIS STUDIO FOR MANY YEARS. THE HOME REQUIRES CONSIDERABLE UPGRADES BUT FEATURES A GENEROUS LAYOUT WITH LARGE WINDOWS AND IS EAST FACING TO CAPTURE THE MORNING SUN. IDEAL FOR THE FIRST TIME HOME BUYER WITH SOME SKILLS WHO MAY WISH TO RAISE A FAMILY IN THIS GREAT NEIGHBOURHOOD WHERE YOUNG FAMILIES WITH CHILDREN HAVE TAKEN OVER NEIGHBOURHOOD PARKS WITH THE FAMILY DOGS AND FRIENDLY CONVERSATIONS. STEPS TO THE SECOND FLOOR FROM THE REAR PROVIDE ACCESS TO WHAT COULD POSSIBLY BE A SECOND UNIT BACK APARTMENT AND WAS USED FOR THAT PURPOSE FOR MANY YEARS TOO. IF YOU HAVE A DESIRE FOR RESTORATION OR ARE LOOKING FOR A WINTER PROJECT THIS COULD BE THE HOME FOR YOU. (id:28469)
