Welcome to 490 New Brighton Drive SE, a well-maintained two-storey home offering 1,420 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space in one of Calgary's most connected southeast communities. A dramatic two-storey foyer with a soaring window floods the entrance with natural light and sets the tone for the home. The main floor features an open-concept layout connecting the kitchen, dining area, and living room, with hardwood floors in the kitchen and dining area and carpet in the living room. The kitchen includes dark stained maple cabinets, a centre island with eating bar, corner pantry, and a full appliance package, with the dining area at the rear facing the backyard. The living room anchors the opposite side with a corner gas fireplace. A practical main-floor laundry room sits off the garage entry, with a secondary coat closet that functions as a mudroom depending on which entrance you use. A 2-piece powder room completes the main level. Upstairs, two well-sized bedrooms share a full 4-piece bathroom, while the primary bedroom features a large walk-in closet and a private 4-piece ensuite with separate shower and tub. The unfinished basement with rough-in plumbing offers excellent future development potential. Outside, the fully fenced pie-shaped lot provides extra yard space and a wood deck off the dining area, with a double front attached garage for secure parking and storage. New Brighton is a vibrant community built around a central clubhouse with splash park, skating rink, and tennis courts. Families are served by New Brighton School and Joane Cardinal-Schubert High School nearby. East Hills Shopping Centre is minutes away with Costco, Cineplex, and major retailers. Stoney Trail and Deerfoot Trail provide quick access across the city, with the 130th Avenue dining and shopping corridor also close at hand. (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.
