Outside, the landscaped and fully fenced backyard features a composite deck, while a detached two-car garage, parking for four and rear laneway access are exceptional conveniences in this central location. All of this on a quiet street within an easy walk of Queen's University, KGH, the waterfront and the Pier. A substantial family home, beautifully updated, in a location that captures the very best of Kingston living.
