LOCATION, PRIVACY & PARK VIEWS | Set across the street from a park in sought-after Mount Pleasant, this charming 4-bedroom home offers an exceptional inner-city lifestyle with quick access to downtown and a direct connection to Calgary’s extensive pathway system without crossing a major road. Mature trees and lush landscaping surround the home, creating a wonderfully private setting that begins with an inviting front porch and beautiful wood walkway. Inside, bamboo floors and distinctive wood doors add warmth and character, while triple-pane windows installed in 2021 (with remaining warranty) enhance year-round comfort. The bright dining room feels tucked into the trees and features an updated light fixture, while the kitchen is well equipped with a stainless steel refrigerator with water dispenser, stainless steel stove with gas hookup, new Bosch dishwasher (2025), pantry, and durable tile flooring. The living area is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace (WETT inspected in 2019), and the main-floor powder room offers tile flooring, freshened paint, a newer mirror, and updated lighting. Upstairs, a large window fills the landing with natural light, and laminate flooring continues through 3 bedrooms. One bedroom includes a walk-in closet with built-in shelving and an updated light fixture, while the primary bedroom enjoys park views year-round and a downtown view through the trees in winter. The full bathroom features a tub/shower combination, quartz countertop, tile flooring, and updated tile completed in 2022. The finished basement adds excellent flexibility with a spacious rec room, laminate flooring, and built-in shelving, a second half bathroom, laundry area with shelving and a counter, plus a fourth bedroom with fresh paint and a permitted egress window added in 2022. A generous under-stair closet provides even more storage. Additional improvements include air conditioning, a hot water tank, and added spray insulation, all completed in 2022.
