Property Description

For additional information, please click on Brochure button below. 4-level split with an illegal basement suite. Only a couple of improvements (such as hard wiring of alarms and a pagoda covering illegal suite's entry) should be required to bring the illegal suite into compliance and make it legal under the City's Existing Secondary Suite Amnesty Program, however, this would be subject to approval by the City upon application. A house in NW Calgary with a legal basement suite typically commands a premium over a similar home in the same neighborhood with an illegal suite, and the delta is set to expand with the City's Amnesty Program expiring at the end of 2023. Up and downstairs illegal suites are currently tenanted and both wish to stay. Upstairs tenant's lease expires year-end, but they have expressed a willingness to work with purchaser regarding possession, and the lower tenants wish to remain following a change in ownership. The 680-sq. ft. oversized heated garage has a finished ceiling and walls while offering plenty of storage even with two vehicles parked inside. Recent improvements include garage roof (2022) and furnace (2016). The designated high school for the area is Sir Winston Churchill. Nearby primary schools include the highly regarded West Dalhousie, St. Dominic Catholic School, and both the Spanish and Mandarin Immersion Programs. The home is located within 10-min. walk to Dalhousie Station and its 43 stores; which include Safeway, Dollar Store, Indigo, Memory Express, Humana Medical Clinic, a veterinarian, an optometrist, a dry cleaner, Earls and Boston Pizza. Notable stops on the the C-Train from Dalhousie Station (travel time in brackets); include U of C (5 min), McMahon Stadium (7 min), SAIT (11 min), downtown (17 min), Saddledome/Stampede grounds (25 min).
