Description
Rare opportunity! Positioned directly across the street from Sandy Beach Park, the Elbow River pathways, and the popular River Park off-leash area, this well maintained original bungalow offers with great potential and possibility over 3,400 Sqft of meticulously maintained midcentury charm spread over 2 levels. An extraordinary opportunity in one of Calgary’s trendiest inner-city communities.
Stepping inside, the home welcomes you with hardwood floors and charming vintage architectural details. The sunlit main living area features expansive, near floor-to-ceiling windows looking directly into the mature backyard, centered around a classic red brick wood-burning fireplace. Off the living room, step directly out onto a covered stone patio—perfect for relaxing after a walk along the river.
The main level boasts a functional layout with three sunny good-sized bedrooms, a bright front dining room, and a versatile family room that could make an ideal home office. The primary bedroom includes built-in closet storage, a vanity area, and its own retro 3-piece ensuite with a stand-up shower, alongside a full main bath. The galley style kitchen opens into the large dining room with views of the park and retains its vintage charm with a built-in cooktop, wall oven, matching panel fridge, and functional built-ins.
Downstairs, the fully finished basement doubles your space with a large recreation area, a second red brick wood-burning fireplace, a 2-piece powder room, a fourth bedroom or hobby room, and extensive laundry and storage facilities. Complete with a single garage, established landscaping, and a private fully enclosed yard, this property stands ready for its next chapter.
Tucked into a quiet pocket of Altadore, this home delivers a peaceful parkside retreat while placing you minutes from downtown, major transit routes, walking distance from top-tier schools from kindergarten through university, and the vibrant shops, cafes, and dining of Marda Loop. Whether you choose to renovate and preserve the authentic mid-century character or take advantage of the prime lot to build your modern dream home, the potential here is unmatched.
