Listing Details

A Landmark Elboya Residence Where History, Character and Extraordinary Living Come Together. Set beneath a canopy of mature trees in one of Calgary's most established inner-city communities, this remarkable residence offers more than 4,570 sq. ft. of developed living space and a story more than a century in the making. Originally built as the Elboya homestead, the home has evolved beautifully over the years while retaining the warmth and character that make it impossible to replicate. Thoughtful renovations, generous gathering spaces and unexpected details create a home that feels equally suited to everyday family life and unforgettable entertaining. The country-inspired kitchen is the heart of the home, featuring Wolf appliances, custom cabinetry and an oversized island made for gathering. From here, the home opens to multiple outdoor living spaces designed to follow the sun throughout the day. Enjoy morning coffee on the east terrace, relax in the charming sunroom, or spend summer evenings entertaining on the private south-facing patio surrounded by mature landscaping. Upstairs, oversized bedrooms and beautifully renovated bathrooms provide exceptional family space, while the third-floor retreat feels like its own private escape, complete with a charming reading nook tucked above the treetops. Then comes the part of this home you would never know was there. An underground passageway connects the main residence to more than 1,400 sq. ft. of additional finished living space beneath the garage. Complete with a full kitchen, bathroom, private entrance and legal suite designation, the possibilities are remarkable. Guest accommodations, multigenerational living, an executive retreat, creative studio, wellness space or an entertaining destination unlike anything your guests have experienced. The space even carries its own piece of Calgary history, having once served as the private recording studio of a renowned recording technician, producer, mixer and mastering engineer. And the location is every bit as compelling as the home itself. Outback is a huge greenspace, perfect for playing, walking or for dogs. Stanley Park, the Elbow River pathway system, Britannia Plaza and excellent schools are all nearby, with downtown only minutes away. Some homes can be renovated. Others can be replicated. This is a property that simply cannot be recreated.
