Welcome to 55 Palmer Street, Guelph! A large three storey historical home situated on Guelph's "Millionaire's Row" perched on the Queen Street hill overlooking the Speed River valley and Downtown Guelph. This is the first offering in 47 years of this stately home built in 1878. Colonel A.H. MacDonald commissioned the home and a few years later he became Mayor of Guelph. The home was designed by architect C.J. Soule. Some of the distinctive architectural features include; the vestibule entrance with etched sidelights and transom, the gracious center hall, the large and imposing staircase and intricately carved newel post, 11 foot ceilings on the main floor, hardwood floors throughout, a total of five fireplaces (on the first and second floor), two staircases (a front and a back), floor to ceiling west-facing bay windows in the living room and master bedroom, arched and oversized windows (with spectacular views) and a south-east facing backyard porch that overlooks the inground heated pool. This is a rare opportunity of a unique property with huge potential. The mature lot measures just over 12,500 square feet (with 97 feet of frontage and 130 feet of depth). The St. George's Park neighbourhood is steps to Downtown Guelph, the Guelph General Hospital and many schools.
