Imagine discovering a true "diamond in the rough." Look no further—you’ve found it! This charming 1904 story-and-a-half home is nestled in one of the most sought-after locations Inglewood has to offer.
Surrounded by three parks, including one directly backing onto the Bow River, and just steps from where the Elbow River flows gracefully into the Bow, this property is also conveniently located across from the Calgary Zoo. Notably, it remained unaffected by the 2013 flood event. The home retains the charm of its era, featuring high ceilings, original woodwork with large baseboards, a clawfoot tub in the main bathroom, and a vintage kitchen. While the house requires significant TLC to restore it to its original glory, much of the value lies in the land and its unbeatable proximity to both rivers and the extensive river bike path system.
The lot is surrounded by newer, larger infill homes, showcasing the potential this location holds for future development. From the second floor, you can enjoy views of the Bow River and downtown, and any new two-story infill would provide stunning vistas of both. This property is just a short walk from downtown, within walking distance to trendy venues and restaurants, including the Dean House restaurant just a half-block away. Don’t miss this rare opportunity—properties like this are becoming increasingly scarce!
