Opportunity knocks in Central Frederick! Now designated under the Strategic Growth Area zoning framework, this property benefits from one of the city’s most progressive and flexible mixed-use designations. This forward-thinking zoning permits a broad range of commercial and residential uses, removes minimum parking requirements, and allows for substantial additions or the potential of full redevelopment. While the home includes four heritage-recognized architectural features, it is not a designated Heritage property —offering potential for reconfiguration or demolition, pending municipal approvals. Imagine Lush perennial gardens and a white picket fence surrounding your dream property, echoing the timeless charm of the Italianate architecture, complete with a large covered veranda, stately pillars, intricate wooden brackets, and a gleaming steel roof (2013) that will last for decades. This fairy tale property is , one of the most beautiful areas in all of Kitchener. This house has all the less charming work done. With all knob and tube disconnect, a newer panel, a top-of-the-line boiler system in 2021, and spray foam insulation means you’ll be cool in summer, cozy in winter, and worry-free year-round. The property has begun the restoration with cedar plank soffits, and much of the exterior wood detailing lovingly stripped and finished with Benjamin Moore’s highest-quality oil primer and lifetime paint. And now, the fun part is yours. You have not one, but two driveways to play with—will you divide the home into a semi-detached again, or dream up something even more creative with the commercial zoning! Maybe you’ll open up walls and reimagine the interior into a sleek, modern masterpiece. (id:51018)
