108 Queen Street

About this home

An exceptional opportunity to own nearly half an acre in Kitchener's established Civic Centre neighbourhood, home to the historic Sonneck House. Located at 108 Queen Street North, this Italianate-style property dates to 1874 and is the last remaining Breithaupt family home in Kitchener. Its red brick exterior, decorative stonework, bay windows and covered porches reflect the craftsmanship of the era. The approximately 19,902 sq. ft. (0.457-acre) parcel offers 153.80 feet of frontage, approximately 129 feet of depth and parking for 12+ vehicles, including a garage. With its generous dimensions and prominent location, the property presents a compelling opportunity for buyers seeking a substantial parcel in an established urban neighbourhood. Existing improvements include a substantial two-storey residence with three bedrooms, 1.5 bathrooms, living and dining rooms with fireplaces, a kitchen with centre island and breakfast area, and attic storage. A sweeping wooden staircase, stained glass, hardwood floors and detailed trim add historic character. An adjoining commercial space currently operates as a salon, with a bathroom and unfinished second level. With the owner vacating, the space offers potential for a new business or commercial tenant. A separate tenanted residential space on the third floor provides existing rental income. Steps from Centre in the Square and Kitchener Public Library, the property is minutes from Downtown Kitchener's restaurants, shops and amenities, with convenient access throughout Waterloo Region. Located within Kitchener's Strategic Growth Area (SGA), this substantial parcel offers possibilities for continued residential and commercial use or exploration of its long-term potential, subject to applicable zoning, heritage requirements and municipal approvals. A rare opportunity to own a recognizable address and shape the next chapter of a significant Kitchener property.
