Faculty47 · Apartments for Rent

Once a distinguished institute in Kingston’s historic Sydenham Ward, Faculty 47 has been artfully transformed into a boutique collection of bespoke apartments at 47 Wellington Street, offering thoughtfully designed layouts that blend heritage character with modern living. Originally designed by John Power in 1873, the building has played many roles in Kingston’s history, including a schoolhouse, badminton club, naval barracks, and even a university laboratory. Today, it has been reimagined into luxury apartments that showcase exposed limestone walls, soaring ceilings, and grand windows that flood interiors with natural light. Complementing these heritage residences are newly designed modern units on the surrounding property—minimalist in aesthetic, spacious in layout, and rich in contemporary amenities. Each residence features high-end finishes and designer-curated details, including stainless-steel appliances, in-suite laundry, individual climate control, and elegant fixtures. Building amenities further elevate the experience with elevator access, secure entry, indoor bike storage, on-site parking, a rooftop terrace with panoramic city views, and landscaped grounds with architectural lighting. Faculty 47 offers more than just premium living spaces—it extends the legacy of a landmark that has long been part of Kingston’s cultural and community life. Blending architectural heritage with modern sophistication, it delivers a one-of-a-kind residential experience in the heart of the city. Set in the heart of the Sydenham Ward, Faculty 47 enjoys one of Kingston’s most desirable addresses. Residents are just minutes from Queen’s University, downtown shops and restaurants, and the natural beauty of City Park. The neighbourhood combines historic charm with everyday convenience, placing schools, fitness centres, coffee shops, and cultural landmarks all within a short walk. Living at Faculty 47 means enjoying the best of Kingston’s downtown core—a vibrant community that balances academic energy, cultural richness, and waterfront leisure, all right at your doorstep.
