RARE 4-LEVEL SPLIT IN WESTGATE | OVERSIZED 60' LOT | SEPARATE ENTRANCE | WALK TO 45 STREET LRT!Set on an oversized 60' wide lot in the established community of Westgate, this hard-to-find 4-level split offers a great mix of space, flexibility and long-term upside in one of Calgary's most connected west-side locations. Whether you are looking to renovate and bring your own vision to life, secure a strong revenue property or explore future secondary suite potential with the benefit of a separate entrance and front parking pad, this home offers immediate livability and long-term potential. Best of all, you are just a short walk to the 45 Street LRT station, schools, parks and everyday amenities. The lot size, housing type, transit access, garage space and flexible lower levels give this property a level of upside that is increasingly hard to find in an established inner-west Calgary location.Inside, the home has the functional separation and multiple living areas that make 4-level splits so appealing. The main floor features a large front living room, a kitchen with generous workspace and an adjacent dining area with patio door access to the deck and backyard, creating a practical layout for day-to-day living and entertaining. Upstairs, the home offers two bedrooms, including an enlarged primary retreat with a walk-in closet, a generous second bedroom and a 4-piece bathroom. The walkout lower level adds exceptional versatility with an expansive rec room, den, wet bar area, separate entrance and a 3-piece bathroom, making it well suited for guests, extended family or future secondary suite development, subject to City of Calgary approval and permitting requirements. The basement level continues to add value with a huge 20'11" x 11'4" bedroom, walk-in closet, dedicated storage room, brand new water heater, utility and laundry area and access to the substantial crawl space for an abundance of additional storage.The outdoor space brings even more warmth and character to the home. Surrounded by mature trees and designed for relaxing or gathering, the backyard features a multi-level deck with retractable awning, fire pit area and a cozy paver patio nestled beneath the canopy at the back of the yard. It is easy to imagine summer barbecues, family time outdoors or peaceful evenings by the fire in this inviting setting. The oversized 24x24 double garage provides excellent room for parking, storage or workshop use, while the rear gate allows for optional RV parking.Westgate is loved for its established character, strong amenities and exceptional accessibility. The neighbourhood includes schools, parks, playgrounds, sports fields, ball diamonds, an active community association, community hall and a well-used outdoor rink. You are also close to the shops, services and restaurants along 17 Avenue SW, Westbrook Mall, Shaganappi Golf Course and Killarney Aquatic & Recreation Centre, while the nearby LRT makes commuting downtown simple and efficient.

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).
