OPEN SAT MAY 30th 1-4PM. Watch the video and Welcome home to one of West Hillhurst’s most unique properties, nestled on coveted 7th Avenue in the heart of one of Calgary’s most beloved inner-city communities … just steps from downtown and Calgary’s scenic river pathway system. Thoughtfully designed with a creative architectural style rarely found in the inner city, this is a home for buyers who appreciate character, warmth, and spaces that feel truly unique. There is simply nothing else like it. From the moment you walk in, you’ll understand why some homes must be experienced in person to be fully appreciated. Dramatic wood-panelled vaulted ceilings, expansive skylights, and oversized windows flood the home with natural light while creating a constant connection to the outdoors. The main floor has been thoughtfully redesigned, renovated and completely opened up, creating a seamless flow between the living, dining, and kitchen spaces that is as functional as it is beautiful. Sunlight pours through giant South-facing windows and skylights, dancing across the hardwood floors throughout the day. A built-in reading bench overlooks the private South-facing backyard — a peaceful retreat featuring a bespoke multi-level cedar deck, cedar fencing, generous lawn, and mature perennial gardens filled with Day Lilies, Irises, and Hostas. Upstairs, two generous bedrooms are complemented by a full 4-piece bathroom, while the serene primary retreat features dual closets and a beautifully updated spa-inspired ensuite. And then there’s the loft …arguably the most special space in the home. Towering vaulted ceilings, custom built-in bookshelves, skylights, and a private cedar patio create a space you’ll never want to leave. Whether used as a home office, reading lounge, media room, or optional fourth bedroom, it is truly one-of-a-kind. The fully developed basement adds exceptional versatility with a spacious rec room, full bedroom, and third bathroom — ideal for guests, teenagers, or a growing family — while the oversized single attached garage offers direct home access and ample storage. (* Updates include fully renovated kitchen with high end appliances, butler pantry/laundry, living room area, hardwood flooring, all new carpeting, lower rec. room with wet bar, A/C, HWT, Water Softener, electrical + +) Located steps from the Bow River Pathway, across from Karl Baker Off Leash Dog Park, and minutes to Kensington, Alberta Children’s Hospital, Foothills Medical Centre, and University of Calgary — this home offers over 2,500 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space on one of Calgary’s most iconic inner-city streets. A home that will make you smile every single time you walk through the door. (id:65958)

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Rough ballpark only. Pick a down-payment option, then tap any underlined number below to plug in your real numbers — tax, condo fee, insurance, utilities. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Cost lines (tax, condo, insurance, utilities) are editable inline above. These two control the mortgage payment math.
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy — confirm with a property manager. Always validate your scenario with a mortgage broker and your insurance provider before writing an offer.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
