45 Chestnut Street is a completely rebuilt residential duplex offering two fully furnished, all-inclusive executive-style apartments in a prime downtown location. Ideal for owner-occupants, professionals, or investors looking for a move-in-ready income property. This 2.5-storey, rusticated-stone home was stripped to the studs and professionally renovated from 2022 to 2024.

The cellar is fireproofed with mono-coat treatment. The upper unit is a spacious 2-bedroom suite with a modern 3-piece bath, finished loft, in-suite laundry, and private deck with views over the Fruit Belt. The lower unit is a bright 1-bedroom with a full 4-piece bath, open layout, and generous finishes. Each unit includes in-suite laundry, programmable Wi-Fi thermostats, and separate shut-offs. Interior features include luxury vinyl plank flooring, quartz and granite countertops, custom cabinetry, ceramic and marble tilework, and full furnishings-TVs, linens, cutlery, and appliances are all included. The property also features a new metal roof, updated eavestroughs, exterior LED soffit lighting, new fencing, fresh sod, a security camera system, on-site parking, and a Level 2 EV charger. Whether you're living a unit (if available) while renting the other, or seeking a hands-off investment with strong appeal to executive tenants, this is a rare opportunity in one of Kingston's most walkable neighborhoods. Unit 2 is currently rented until 2027-01-11, minimum24 hours' notice required
