Where it is
1405 15 Street S.W.
The history
This two-storey was built in 1912 in Sunalta, which is one of Calgary’s oldest neighbourhoods. Established in 1909, Sunalta is likely named after “Sunny-Alberta”. There are several designated heritage buildings within the community, including a handful along 15 Street.
What to love
1405 is the ideal balance of old and new. It has a renovated kitchen, new windows and a fully finished basement. It also has original hardwood flooring upstairs, leaded-glass windows, an enclosed front porch and the original claw foot tub. The low maintenance backyard offers plenty of private outdoor space in downtown Calgary.
What to consider
As an older property, 1405 does not have walk-in closets, but if you’re a clotheshorse you could designate the basement as your dressing room.
