Completely original home and estate sale where family members all had different opinions on what to do. We put together a plan that was designed to drive as much traffic in as possible in the fastest time that we could. After 48 hours and 11 offers we were able to sell this home for over $90,000 over list price.
Renovating bungalows in Calgary's 60's and 70's neighbourhoods has become "the thing to do" for flippers, as well as people that want inner city convenience with modern touches. This house is the perfect starting point. Situated on the edge of a quiet cul-de-sac, it also has the field for John Ware school on the south side across the street, which is also the same field that leads to the Southland Leisure Centre. A big check mark for location!
The house itself is a great starting point to either live in and chip away at updating, or to go the distance and renovate the entire thing at once. Palliser brings a huge return on homes like this with the right renovations. Starting with 3 bedrooms up, a full bath, as well as a 2 piece ensuite, makes this a bit of a rare find. The large foot print also makes the structure great for a reno project. The fact that the kitchen, dining, and living room are all on one side of the house make the options for a wide open main floor plan easy to do. The basement has an updated furnace, 2 other bedrooms, and a large family room as well. Outside, there is a detached double garage, and the yard gets lots of east and south sun exposure due to it being on the corner. This is one you won't want to miss if Palliser is on your list of areas to live in.
