Calling all green thumbs looking for gardens and a plethora of fruit bearing trees and bushes! Welcome to 29 St Leger Street, a charming yellow brick 2 storey on a large 164’ lot in the Civic District, one of Kitchener’s most historic and walkable neighbourhoods. Immediately, you’ll notice the large driveway with space for 5 cars and attached single car garage, giving you rare parking convenience for a home of this era. Feel welcomed by the front verandah, boasting two stately brick columns and an upper balcony for enjoying sunrises and summer evenings. Step inside and notice the charm of the wood stair banister, which has greeted guests for over a century. The front room with tin ceilings offers versatility as a home office or formal dining space. Beyond that, a 12’ x 23’ living room with hardwood floors and tray ceilings creates the ideal setting for gatherings. Continue to the rear addition where the eat-in kitchen is tucked away with stone countertops, tile flooring, and a double-wide fridge/freezer combo. Patio doors lead out to the rear covered deck, ideal for outdoor dining and relaxation in the shade. The main floor also includes a 4 pc washroom including a corner shower and laundry + wash sink. Upstairs, four bedrooms are split between the original home’s second storey and the addition, combined with two 3 pc washrooms (one shower and the other with a clawfoot tub and built in sauna). The 53’ x 164’ property is a gardener’s dream with fruiting trees and bushes including Apple, Peach, Pear, Arctic Kiwi and many more. Rear lane/alley access provides the rare opportunity to build your dream detached garage/workshop. The Civic Centre is celebrated for its historic homes, mature trees, and vibrant community life. Steps to Centre in the Square, Kitchener Public Library, Suddaby Public School, and everything Downtown Kitchener offers, this neighbourhood blends heritage charm with true urban convenience.
