Property Description
Welcome home. Located on a quiet, beautiful tree-lined cul-de-sac in the inner-city community of Hillhurst, you are mere steps away from Calgary’s famous Kensington shopping district, Sunnyside LRT station, Riley Park, walking distance to the 2 North Calgary GATE schools (Hillhurst and Queen Elizabeth), the Bow River pathway system and even downtown is only a 20 minute walk away. This original 1912, three bedroom, two story house with total livable space of 2096 sq. ft. has been lovingly upgraded and restored while maintaining its character elements, including maple and oak hardwood floors, original baluster and heritage casework throughout. The main floor boasts a comfortable living room and dining room with double French doors opening onto a spacious multi-tiered deck, perfect for relaxing or entertaining. The modern galley kitchen features a Viking gas range with griddle, Miele dishwasher, and a new fridge with icemaker. The white quartz countertops provide ample layout space, while your double farm sink will make cleaning a breeze. Cozy up to the wood-burning stove in the nook just off the kitchen, where you can work at the built-in desk or simply warm up after an eventful day. The upper level features three bedrooms, including the master with an expansive view of downtown, complete with a walk-in closet and ensuite. All original windows up here have been replaced with high end double hung wood Marvin windows. The basement has been tastefully developed with modern flair, featuring a large entertainment room, full 3 piece bathroom, office, and laundry room. The house has been fully modernized, and all original wiring, plumbing (including the sewer line), lathe and plaster have been updated. All exterior walls above grade have been insulated with fibreglass insulation, while the basement has been insulated with soy-based spray foam for ultimate comfort. The attic boasts over R50 in insulation. Environmental upgrades include the 3.2kW grid tied solar photovoltaic array, high efficiency furnace (92%) with Nest thermostat, and on demand Navien hot water heating system. The large two-tiered deck and rear fence were rebuilt using salvaged cedar heavy timbers. The yard is a gardener’s paradise with an extensive raised bed area, several fruit bearing trees and perennials, and a greenhouse built using the house’s original windows. The original garage has been equipped with a new overhead door with app and will fit your car and more.
