151 MONTREAL Street, Kingston, ON

Description

Discover the perfect blend of historic charm and modern convenience at 151 Montreal St, a fully renovated downtown residence that must be viewed to be fully appreciated. Embrace the ease of urban living with nearly 1600 sq ft of finished space as well as basement storage all with no lawn to maintain, no driveway to clear, and freedom from condo fees and restrictions. This home is a masterpiece of thoughtful restoration, where every detail has been carefully curated to preserve its rich history while seamlessly integrating contemporary comforts. The character of the home shines through in the intricate hardware and hinges, the exposed brick and stone, timeless floors, trim, baseboards, and doors, as well as the lathe and plaster walls, which have been artfully enhanced with deliberate imperfections to honor the home's past. The beauty of this home is immediately apparent with its impressive ceiling heights: 9’6” on the main floor, 9’ on the second, and 8’6” in the loft. These soaring ceilings, combined with the handcrafted open winder stairs, allow natural light to pour through the home from large windows and skylights. The heart of the home is a spacious, central kitchen with an island that comfortably seats four—ideal for everyday living and entertaining. The main floor also features an open living room, warm dining room, powder room, mudroom, and an inviting foyer. Innovative design meets functionality with the unique staircase that cleverly lifts with hydraulic arms to provide easy basement access. The second floor boasts three beautifully appointed rooms and a spacious 4-piece bathroom that doubles as a laundry room with built-in storage. Two rooms are enhanced with large built-in closet organizers, featuring soft-close doors, while the third room is perfect as a home office, den, or nursery. The loft, with its limitless possibilities, can serve as an alternative primary bedroom, office, additional living room, or flexible bonus space.
