Skip the cottage traffic and enjoy your own private resort in the city. Welcome to the iconic Robert Orr Farmhouse, a landmark 1881 residence set on a private 2/3-acre lot in Kitchener’s desirable Rosenberg community. Winner of the City of Kitchener’s Mike & Pat Wagner Heritage Award, this remarkable property has undergone an extensive 3-year, $900K restoration and expansion, seamlessly blending timeless character with modern luxury. The backyard retreat is designed for entertaining and relaxation, featuring a 15’ x 32’ smart-controlled Tim Goodwin inground diving pool, professional putting green, horseshoe pit, natural gas firepit, RV parking, irrigation system, invisible pet fencing, and mature maple trees providing exceptional privacy. Inside, the home retains its original charm with stained-glass accents, a classic curved staircase, wood floors, oversized baseboards, and a newly reproduced front porch true to its 1881 heritage. The chef-inspired kitchen features quartz countertops, premium appliances, a breakfast bar, built-in coffee station, and custom walk-in pantry/mudroom. A bright 3½-season sunroom, formal living and dining rooms, and an updated main-floor bathroom complete the main level. Upstairs offers spacious bedrooms, convenient second-floor laundry, and a spa-inspired bathroom with custom tilework and quartz vanity. Major updates include 200-amp electrical service, HVAC, plumbing, roof, windows, eaves, and repointed masonry. The detached triple coach house offers exceptional flexibility, with its own HVAC system, 100-amp electrical service, full bathroom, bedroom, living area, space ready for a kitchen, and a finished lower level ideal for a gym, office, studio, games room, or man cave. Located across from RBJ Schlegel Park and surrounded by trails and green space, this is a rare opportunity to own a piece of local history while enjoying true resort-style living at home. (id:19593)
