The Kibler House
The Kibler House: Iconic Queen Anne Gem in Historic Tonawanda
đź“– Long Description in English:
Step into timeless elegance with the Kibler House, a designated City of Tonawanda Historical Building and a stunning example of Queen Anne-style architecture, built in 1898 by a prominent local lumberman. This breathtaking home is a rare opportunity to own a piece of Tonawanda’s rich heritage, where historic grandeur meets modern comfort.
From the moment you walk through the front door, you’re greeted by rich cypress woodwork, 10-foot ceilings, and the unmatched beauty of Tiffany glass chandeliers and stained glass windows that bathe the interiors in vibrant, colorful light. The spacious living room is a showstopper, featuring a wood-burning fireplace, custom built-in bookshelves, a striking mantel, and window seats perfect for cozy afternoons or entertaining in classic style.
The home offers five generously sized bedrooms on the second level and 1.5 baths, while the third-floor walk-up attic—once used as a billiard room and cedar closet—offers incredible potential for a studio, retreat, or additional living space. Every inch of this home tells a story, blending original features with thoughtful updates that maintain its character and charm.
The renovated kitchen is a perfect blend of old and new, equipped with modern appliances, a full wall of original cabinetry, and a walk-in butler’s pantry that flows into the formal dining room—ideal for both everyday living and elegant entertaining.
Outside, the home is equally impressive. A stone front porch invites guests to linger, while the copper-roofed turret and decorative iron fencing add undeniable curb appeal. The oversized yard provides plenty of space for outdoor gatherings, gardening, or quiet relaxation. A two-car garage, extra-wide concrete driveway, and attached workshop round out the property’s many practical features.
Located just blocks from the Niagara River and Niawanda Park, you’ll enjoy easy access to scenic walks, community events, and the vibrant spirit of the City of Tonawanda.
More than just a residence, the Kibler House is a living legacy—a one-of-a-kind home that offers warmth, history, and exceptional craftsmanship at every turn. Don’t miss your chance to own this architectural treasure. Showings begin immediately, with offers reviewed on May 15, 2025.
