125 ABERDEEN Avenue
Hamilton, Ontario
7 bed • 5 bath • Single Family
Built in 1909 by prominent Stelco founder Cyrus Birge as a wedding gift for his daughter, this architectural masterpiece was designed by W.L. Munro, the celebrated Hamilton architect behind many of the city's finest homes. Over a century of distinguished ownership followed, including Colonel Norman McGregor of McGregor Shirt Company fame, before the current stewards have lovingly maintained this landmark residence in the heart of the prestigious Durand neighbourhood. Offering just under 8,000 sq ft of versatile living space, this extraordinary 7 bedroom, 5 bathroom residence sits on a stately lot with a rare 3 car garage complete with lift. Thoughtfully configured as three self-contained units, each with its own kitchen and living space, the home is ideal for multi-generational living, income generation, or a refined live-in-one, rent-the-others lifestyle. Expansive principal rooms, soaring ceilings, and period character define every corner of this grand home. Whether restored to a single-family showpiece or optimized as a premium investment, the possibilities are exceptional. Steps to Locke Street, top schools, parks, and downtown amenities. A property of this history, scale, and potential rarely becomes available. Welcome to 125 Aberdeen Avenue.
