This classic 1950`s Parkdale bungalow (now re-zoned West Hillhurst) has been meticulously maintained since the early 60`s by the same owner. Non smoker; no pets. This home is rock-solid, built on cobble-sized river bed gravel.
Investment property to live-in or rent and hold. Property is zoned R-2. Clean, bright and sunny, the main floor is decorated in neutral tones; Berber carpeting was installed in 2004. Retro 50`s pine cupboards in the kitchen are reminiscent of a bygone age. Living room has built-in china cabinet, bookshelves & cupboards and an electric fireplace. Spacious cupboards in the back hall for linens, supplies & central vacuum hose. Main floor bath was completely upgraded in 2000 with soaker tub and hand-held shower, tile, new sink & toilet, and cabinets.
Fully-developed 8` basement. Entertain friends in a beautifully customized retro rec room that includes a wet bar, pine split-log 1/2 walls and a retro rock mantle with electric fireplace. Wrought-iron finishes. Bedroom. Custom den/office has pine cabinet pull-outs, shelves with glass doors & long counter; can be converted into bedroom. Small bathroom with shower. Laundry room with utility sink and cold room.
Investment property, for future development. Positioned on an irregular corner lot with loads of development potential, it is comfortably nested amidst million-dollar single family homes.
Readdressing potential on 27th Street. Situate a new home between mature front & backyard trees, designed to exploit lovely vantage points looking up 1st Ave to the east, St. Andrew`s Heights to the north, or down the spruce forested Bow River Valley, to the west. For inspiration, see the photo gallery.
This is a dream location for all ages. Unlike the suburbs, commuting downtown is a breeze via Crowchild Trail or Kensington Road. Ride, run or walk the Bow River Pathway or commute by bus - across the 27th Street/Parkdale Boulevard crosswalk. And you`ll enjoy getting out of town to ski in record time because the Trans Canada Hwy is just 10 minutes away.
