Welcome to a truly special offering in the heart of Charleswood. Available for the first time ever by its original owners, this lovingly maintained bungalow is perfectly positioned on a quiet, tree-lined street in one of Calgary’s most established and desirable low-density communities. Set on a large, beautifully landscaped lot with mature trees and a private backyard, this is the kind of property that rarely becomes available. Rich in character and timeless appeal, the home showcases many of the craftsmanship details that make mid-century homes so sought after. Original maple hardwood flooring, elegant coved plaster ceilings, and a stunning leaded-glass pocket door reflect an era of quality construction and thoughtful design. Whether you’re drawn to preserving its architectural charm, planning a thoughtful renovation, or envisioning a custom dream home, the opportunities here are exceptional. The functional bungalow layout offers three bedrooms on the main level, bright and spacious living and dining areas, and large windows that fill the home with natural light. The lower level provides additional living space, a fourth bedroom, ample storage, and plenty of room for future development or modernization to suit your family’s needs. An oversized double detached garage adds valuable space for vehicles, hobbies, and storage. Situated at the top of a hill, this property offers a rare opportunity to create a truly standout home. Set back from the street, the generous front yard provides exceptional space for an oversized double attached garage, with the potential for additional living space above that could capture unobstructed city views. With the advantage of its elevation, expansive lot, and room to expand, this is an exceptional opportunity for buyers looking to build value while creating a home that blends timeless character with modern design. Charleswood is cherished for its central northwest location, mature streetscapes, and outstanding access to parks, schools, and everyday amenities. Families will appreciate being within walking distance of Triwood Community Kindergarten, Banff Trail Elementary School, Senator Patrick Burns School, William Aberhart High School, St. Margaret School, St. Pius X School, and St. Francis High School. Residents also enjoy quick access to the University of Calgary, Foothills Medical Centre, Alberta Children’s Hospital, Market Mall, Nose Hill Park, Confederation Park, Canmore Park, tennis courts, playgrounds, walking and cycling pathways, shopping, restaurants, coffee shops, LRT , and major commuter routes. Offered for sale for the very first time, this is more than just a home—it’s an opportunity to become the next steward of a property that has been cherished for generations. A rare combination of location, character, lot size, and future potential in one of Calgary’s most sought-after northwest neighbourhoods. (id:65958)

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.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
