I have sold a property at 1634 5 STREET NW in Calgary
I have sold a property at 1634 5 STREET NW in Calgary.
Vintage charm. Modern character. Wonderfully priced. An unbelievably spacious yard (50x120ft), full-height basement, gabled ceilings and a BREAKFAST NOOK!? Yes, a breakfast nook. This 1534 sqft, 3 bed, 2 bath 1930 Rosedale bunglow-turned-two-story is an absolute one-of-a-kind. The gorgeous dark hardwood floors, large windows and modern paint/wallpaper have all been recently updated, and the thoughtfully-designed, farmhouse-modern full kitchen was installed in 2017. Do you see the exposed original brick? On the main floor, two similarly sized bedrooms and a full, 4pc bathroom offer plenty of space for family bedrooms or dual-office/studios. The mid-century inspired living/dining room combines modern, open-plan design with vintage charm, where contemporary paint and design meet arched partitions. Admire all the original woodwork and brass vintage grates throughout. A large covered foyer offers enough space for a well-window'ed reading corner, and plenty of custom cabinetry for shoes and coats. On its own, the main floor constitutes a beautiful, well cared-for classic bungalow. However, step into the upstairs addition to experience the magic of this unique space. Up the turning stairs with a striking, refurbished pipe-railing is the beautiful, 500+ sq ft master sanctuary. A king-sized sleeping space, skylight, desk space, full 4pc ensuite with jacuzzi tub and generous walk-in-closet fit together in studio-esque harmony. But not to worry, the sentimental charm of the 1930 vintage has not been lost in this addition. The architecture is as mathematical as it is emotional; the late afternoon sunlight into that gabled-ceiling space evokes both cabin vacation and European cosmopolitanism. This unique home both does and doesn't feel like Calgary. If you're looking for a space with heart, history and soul, don't let this pass you by. And did we mention the breakfast nook ..?

You can look forward to many hours of entertaining and relaxing outdoors on the large wood deck nestled in the trees. The shed is a nice addition to store your lawn tools or the kid's toys. The double garage is drywalled. What a wonderful spot to call home - great location, wonderful views, and a short walk to all the walking and biking trails throughout the terrific community of Valley Ridge. Golfers will appreciate the close proximity to the Valley Ridge Golf Course. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate the quick and easy access to the highway that makes day or weekend trips to the mountains so easy!
