Home Overview

Description

An extraordinary opportunity to own a piece of Kingston's architectural and cultural history. Built in 1825, The Gildersleeve House is one of the city's oldest surviving residences - an elegant Georgian building steeped in heritage and meticulously preserved. Located on the corner of King and Johnson Streets in the heart of downtown, this distinguished property now serves as a high-end commercial office space. The 4249 square foot building underwent a thoughtful restoration and interior renovation in 2000, blending modern functionality with timeless character. Original features such as intricate mouldings, solid wood doors, and a sweeping front entrance speak to the craftsmanship of a bygone era, while the current layout offers multiple offices, meeting rooms, and a stately reception area. A charming third-floor apartment offers flexibility, ideal as a pied-à-terre or future executive suite. Outside, the original iron fence, reconstructed in 1890, frames the front garden. Private parking for six vehicles enhances convenience. Zoned DT2, the property allows for a broad range of uses, including residential - offering the potential to convert this landmark back into an exceptional family home. Steps from City Hall, the waterfront, and Kingston's finest amenities, this is a rare blend of prestige, location, and versatility.
