    Prepare to fall in love! Own a piece of Calgary's history with this century-old charmer. The walk-up basement suite is perfect for in-laws, outlaws, or anyone else who enjoys their own private entrance. (*Please note that the seller is in the process of legalizing the basement suite. The development permit w/ parking relaxation has been approved & is in the advertising phase until May 16.*) Nestled on a quiet one-way street, this 1912 vintage home will greet you with a tiered front yard, soaring evergreens & cedar garden boxes. The west facing, expansive front porch is ideal for your morning coffees or evening night caps. Once inside, charm is exuded in the high ceilings, exposed brick, original light features, doors with actual character, vintage touches, & vent covers that are not from your average home improvement store. The open-concept living, dining, & kitchen area offer many sightlines & easy flow. You get granite & butcher block countertops, a farmhouse-style sink, and enough floor-to-ceiling built-in cabinetry to make even a minimalist reconsider their life choices. There’s a recycling lazy Susan in the corner cabinet, because why not add a little spin to your environmental commitment? The rear mud/laundry room has a built-in ironing board for when you need to pretend you're domestic, and a storage bench that’s perfect for hiding shoes or storing all the umbrellas you’ve never used. Step out into the backyard, where you can practice your BBQ skills or relax under the climbing ivy-laced pergola covered deck. Upstairs, the primary suite comes with a walk-in closet—a rare find in a house of this vintage—and its own west-facing balcony. Two additional bedrooms await, one with yet another balcony, why not? The full bathroom has art-deco vibes and a clawfoot tub. The lower level is its own self-contained living space, with Euro-style laundry, a full bathroom, a kitchen with soft-closing cupboards, a bedroom, and an open living area. The walk-up layout, complete with seven large windows, allows for higher rental income potential, not your typical "dungeon" basement suite. There's even a hidden storage room under the front porch for all your secret stash of tools & outdoor gear. The house has had many capital upgrades, including most windows (2010), roof (2014), high-efficiency furnace (2018), interior & exterior paint (2022), hot water tank, integrated smoke/CO2 detectors, electrical breakers (2024). The house is wired for sound throughout & includes built-in speakers/amp. Bankview is a lively community with parks, tennis courts, community gardens, & shops so close you might actually walk places. Schools are within walking distance - Richmond K-6 and Mount Royal 7-9. At the end of the street there's a brand-new playground w/ a climbing wall at Buckmaster Park. Nearby Marda Loop community centre has beach volleyball, pump track, outdoor pool & pickleball. You can even explore adding a heritage designation to this home to access municipal grants for upgrades. More details
