244 JAMES STREET N/A Kingston, ON K7K 5P5

244 James St, situated among the lilacs in lovely Barriefield Village. The best of an old world era meets modern updating in this charming 1871 built home. Nearly 20 years ago there was a wonderful renovation with a two story addition creating a dedicated foyer entrance with double closets and an upper level five-piece primary bathroom. The kitchen was remodeled and a main floor laundry room and convenient half bath were done. All of the mechanics were updated as well, the steel roof, new wiring, plumbing and heat system. Charming original features remain, with painted wide plank floors and beautiful trim and doors. The free standing gas stove in the cozy living room and in-floor heat in the primary bath and kitchen are just further examples of thoughtful touches throughout. The surroundings are beautiful here, the scent of lilacs all around and just steps from the adored community Rock Garden. The large backyard is grassy and perfect, with a nice deck & hot tub. Maybe consider having your own chickens- the custom coop is ready! Not long ago, the impressive detached garage was custom built fitting seamlessly into the landscape and the options for its use are endless. 1000 ft.² of space over two levels complete with hydro, double wide doors and extra deep in length. Truly a bonus to have! This is a really special property you would be proud to call home. Come for a look.
