An extraordinary opportunity to own one of Hamilton’s most iconic residences. Known as the “Queen St Castle,” this circa 1881 Victorian masterpiece commands a prominent corner in the Durand neighbourhood at the base of the escarpment. With its signature turret and timeless architectural detail, this historically significant home stands among the city’s most admired properties. Rich in character and carefully preserved, it offers exceptional flexibility. Grandfathered as a legal non-conforming triplex, it presents a rare opportunity to create a stunning single-family estate, maintain a strong income property, or live in one unit while generating revenue. Inside, the original charm blends w/ impressive scale—soaring ceilings, intricate period details, and 6 fireplaces, including a wood-burning fireplace on the main level. Outside, a fully fenced yard offers privacy and ample space for entertaining, complemented by a rare triple-car covered carport and additional parking accommodating up to 10 vehicles. Many recent updates include a new boiler in 2026, carport roof 2023, flat roof 2025, new porch, steps and railings 2024, and so much more. Located just steps to Locke Street boutiques and dining, and easy walking distance to Augusta, James, and Hess Village. Enjoy easy access to the escarpment and Bruce Trail, close proximity to hospitals, McMaster University, Mohawk College, GO stations and transit routes. A rare offering of architectural significance, income potential and lifestyle. (id:4069)
