Welcome to 3229 2nd Street SW, an exceptionally rare opportunity to own a substantially sized executive family home in the heart of Roxboro, one of Calgary’s most prestigious and tightly held inner-city communities. Perfectly positioned on an oversized lot, end of the cut de sac, siding directly onto a beautiful natural wooded reserve, this remarkable property offers a level of privacy, tranquility, and long-term value that is nearly impossible to replicate — all while being moments from the very best of inner-city living. Built in the early 90's, an extraordinary rarity for the neighbourhood gives a level of updated building spec that most historic properties don't. This custom two-storey residence offers nearly 5,000 square feet of developed living space across three expansive levels, thoughtfully designed to accommodate growing families while blending timeless architecture with exceptional functionality. From the moment you arrive, the beautifully landscaped exterior and charming front veranda create an elegant first impression. Inside, the bright and spacious main floor immediately showcases the incredible scale of the home, featuring large formal living and dining spaces ideal for entertaining. The stunning sunken family room serves as a true architectural centerpiece, highlighted by huge vaulted ceilings, a beautiful gas fireplace, dramatic floor-to-ceiling windows, and an abundance of natural light overlooking the mature surrounding greenery. The oversized kitchen was designed with family living in mind, offering extensive cabinetry, generous prep space, a large two-tier island with built-in wine storage, and a dedicated breakfast nook with seamless access to the outdoor deck and private backyard retreat. Additional main floor spaces include multiple flexible living areas perfect for a home office, library, den, or children’s playroom, along with a practical mudroom/laundry area providing direct access to the attached double garage. The upper level is excepti onally rare for the area, featuring 4 FULL BEDROOMS on one level — an increasingly difficult feature to find in luxury inner-city homes. The spacious primary retreat offers a large walk-in closet and a luxurious 5-piece ensuite complete with a jetted soaker tub and separate shower, while a secondary bedroom enjoys its own private ensuite, perfect for older children or guests. Two additional bedrooms are generously sized and share another full bathroom. The fully developed lower level offers endless flexibility with high ceilings, an expansive recreation room, theatre or flex space, additional family room, full bathroom, and potential for future bedroom expansion if desired. Significant recent upgrades provide complete peace of mind, including new air conditioning, new furnace, complete removal of all Poly-B plumbing, fresh interior paint, and numerous additional updates throughout. Located steps from the Elbow River pathways, top-rated schools, the shops and restaurants of 4th Street and 17th Avenue. (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).
Pick a down payment and tap any underlined number to edit. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Monthly carrying costs (shared)
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. Accelerated bi-weekly frequency reduces total interest paid vs. monthly — confirm with a broker. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy. Always validate with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
