Historic Charm, a Massive Lot, and Endless Possibilities Near Queen's
Some homes simply don't build them like they used to. Welcome to 212 MacDonnell Street, a Georgian classic dating back to 1920 that blends timeless character with thoughtful updates, all on an extraordinary 70' x 192' lot that's roughly four times the size of most properties in the neighbourhood. Finding this much space in such a prime Kingston location is like finding a parking spot downtown on the first try.
Inside, original hardwood floors, beveled glass French doors, and beautiful custom details showcase the home's historic charm. The updated eat-in kitchen features quartz countertops and high-end stainless steel appliances, while the cozy family room addition, complete with a freestanding gas fireplace, creates the perfect spot to unwind after a busy day.
Upstairs, the current two-bedroom layout can easily be converted back to three bedrooms, while a custom circular staircase leads to a unique attic space ready to become a home office, reading retreat, studio, or the ultimate kids' hideaway. With two driveways, parking for up to nine vehicles, and an oversized detached two-car garage, you'll never be short on space for guests, hobbies, or collections.
The backyard is a showstopper all on its own. Mature gardens, wrought iron fencing, a sprawling entertaining deck, and enough room for a pool create a private outdoor oasis in the heart of the city. For investors, the home's proximity to Queen's University and flexible layout open the door to exciting opportunities, while the oversized lot may offer future development potential, subject to approvals.
Character, space, location, and flexibility. Homes like this don't come along often.
