If these walls could talk, they’d have 129 years of stories to tell. Perched on the edge of the Hamilton escarpment since 1896, this grand old soul has stood as a quiet witness to the unfolding of a city—watching the skyline stretch, the lights multiply, & Lake Ontario shimmer through every season. The views are nothing short of breathtaking, shifting in mood & colour with the time of day & weather—sunrises that set the city aglow, misty mornings cloaked in fog, & glittering nights under the stars. Step inside & the magic continues. Ontario black walnut flooring runs underfoot in many principal rooms, offering warmth & elegance in equal measure. The main floor is rich with charm & function: a formal living room off the entry, a grand dining room made for conversation, & a peaceful sitting room/four-season sunroom at the back where the world seems to fall away in favour of sky & cityscape. The kitchen is timeless with crisp white cabinetry, & a thoughtfully placed 3pc bathroom with walk-in tiled shower adds flexibility. Upstairs, the front bedroom is a sanctuary of light, with bay window framing the view & double closets. Two additional bedrooms serve as a home office & workout space, though the possibilities are endless. The upper-level bathroom is a statement—feminine, luxurious, with white chandeliers, soaker tub, & double vanity sinks that speak to slow mornings & self-care. Then there’s the third floor: a true bonus level filled with creativity & light. The rear room—with its commanding view—is now a music studio, but could be a Primary Retreat, teen hangout, or artist’s space. A full bath with tub/shower combo & a kitchenette complete this level, ideal for multi-generational living or long-term guests. Outside, the street is quiet & inviting, a blend of historic charm & tasteful new builds. But make no mistake—this home is unlike any other. It’s not just a place to live, it’s a place that has lived. And now, it’s ready for its next chapter. Will it be yours? (id:4069)
