Nestled on one of Fairview's most picturesque, tree-lined streets, this charming "house on the hill" is a beautifully renovated bungalow with incredible landscaping, blends character, style, and modern upgrades effortlessly. The home welcomes you with its striking refinished hardwood floors and ample natural light pouring in through oversized windows, showcasing a spacious and inviting living area. At the heart of this home is the thoughtfully redesigned kitchen, featuring butcher block countertops, subway tile backsplash, under-cabinet lighting, and an induction cooktop paired with a built-in oven. With space for a large dining table and access to the south-facing backyard. The main floor is completed by a master bedroom with double closets, two additional bedrooms, and a renovated family bathroom finished with quartz countertops, subway tiles, and a luxurious soaker tub. A barn door opens to the basement, where a large living area with a huge egress window awaits, alongside a rec/workout space and a vintage wet bar adorned with original wallpaper that's back in vogue. The lower level also offers two additional bedrooms, a laundry area, and a stylishly renovated bathroom boasting a walk-in shower, floor to ceiling with mosaic tile, and tiled floors. This property has been carefully upgraded inside and out, including a 10 solar panel system which is tied into the grid (owner gets paid for unused energy), soffit pot lights, designer Google-controlled lighting, updated windows, and exterior industrial-style detailing with wood and corrugated iron. Outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, with a west-facing patio, a large and private south-facing backyard shaded by aspens and a mature maple, as well as a cosy firepit area. The oversized 25 x 20 garage, complete with heating capabilities (gas line and old furnace in place), adds additional functionality to this remarkable property. Situated in an unbeatable location, the property is a short stroll from Le Roi Daniels and Fairview Schools, the retro-inspired Toppler Bowl, and local hotspots, including the Italian Centre and Chinook Mall, with downtown Calgary just a 15-minute drive away. This home offers the perfect blend of charm, comfort, and convenience, ready to welcome its new owners.
