Calgary house for sale at $575,000 is as old as Alberta

Calgary is rich in history, and one house for sale has seen a great deal of time pass, having been built when Alberta first became a province.

Located at 703 14A St. SE in the historic Inglewood neighbourhood, this home offers two bedrooms and one bathroom across nearly 800 square feet of developed living space on the main floor.

The one-storey home was built back in 1905, making it the same age as the province of Alberta.

It’s wild to imagine what the area looked like when this house was built, and all the decades of change it has seen!

A big perk of this property is that it’s sitting on a nice green space owned by the City of Calgary with no neighbours beside you, and has been renovated.

The home has been extensively renovated throughout with updates including new drywall and insulation (including attic), all new windows, front and patio doors, and fresh paint.

The kitchen and bathroom have also been completely redone, including new flooring, baseboards, and casings for a seamless aesthetic.

With a home that is a cool 120 years old, major plumbing and electrical upgrades have been done, along with new pot lights, a ceiling fan, and an improved laundry area.

The open-concept front living room connects to the dining area and kitchen, allowing for easy travel throughout the house.

The kitchen has a subway tile backsplash, white shaker cabinetry with glass-faced uppers, and a new sink.

The basement has an upgraded laundry centre with a new washbasin sink and plenty of storage.

Outside, the backyard is a true treat with a brick patio beneath mature trees, perfect for gatherings, fire pit evenings, or quiet relaxation.

The property includes parking for two vehicles and is just mere steps away from plenty of shops, restaurants, parks, and Calgary’s lively arts and entertainment scene.
