108 QUEEN Street N

Some addresses come with more than a location. They come with a legacy. Welcome to the Sonneck House, a historic landmark dating back to 1874, situated on a prominent 0.

457-acre lot in Kitchener's Civic Centre neighbourhood. Originally built by Louis Breithaupt, the property later became home to his son Louis Jacob Breithaupt, a businessman and former mayor of Berlin. Today, the Sonneck House remains the last surviving Breithaupt family home in Kitchener, known for its history and distinctive Italianate architecture.

The property offers a combination of commercial and residential space. Currently operating as a salon, the commercial portion features bright styling and treatment areas, decorative columns, large windows, elegant lighting and a welcoming reception area. Complete with its own bathroom and unfinished upper level, the space offers flexibility for a new business or commercial tenant, with the current owner vacating.

The adjoining main residence features three bedrooms and 1. 5 bathrooms, with spacious living and dining rooms, both with fireplaces, and a kitchen with a centre island and breakfast area. A sweeping wooden staircase, stained glass, hardwood flooring and detailed trim highlight the home's historic character.

A separate tenanted residential space provides existing rental income. Set on nearly half an acre with approximately 154 feet of frontage and parking for 12+ vehicles, including a garage, the property offers valuable space and accessibility for residential and commercial occupants. Steps from Centre in the Square and Kitchener Public Library, it's minutes from Downtown Kitchener's restaurants, shops and businesses.

For entrepreneurs, investors or those seeking a distinctive live-work opportunity, the Sonneck House offers a chance to bring new purpose to a property with over 150 years of history. Located within Kitchener's Strategic Growth Area (SGA), future uses are subject to applicable zoning, heritage requirements and municipal approvals.
