A rare, custom-built hillside bungalow from the 1960s, this home is packed with architectural personality and ready for its next great chapter. Designed with intention and craftsmanship thatâs hard to replicate today, the completely unique floor plan offers an exceptional canvas for a thoughtful renovation or inspired redesign.The main level features two bedrooms plus a den with original built-ins, offering flexibility for modern living. The primary bedroom is generously scaled, while the main bathroom is a period-perfect nod to the 1960âsâcomplete with a deep soaker tub, expansive skylight, and a Hollywood-style dressing area that simply doesnât exist in todayâs builds.Soaring vaulted ceilings anchor the living and dining areas, framing views of the west-facing backyard and flooding the space with natural light. The kitchen has seen updates over the years, but the showstopper is the substantial rear addition: a light-filled sunroom with walls of windows and a top-tier gas fireplace, creating a cozy retreat year-round. In addition to the thoughtful design, the home features practical built-ins throughout: a built-in office area for working from home and a matching built-in in the basement rec roomâeach contributing to the homeâs distinctive character and storage-friendly appeal. We are talking solid wood throughout the home with a mix of oak, walnut and mahogany.Downstairs, youâll find beautifully detailed woodwork, a large family room, an additional spacious bedroom, and a three-piece bathâideal for guests or future reimagining. The attached double garage completes the package, while numerous built-ins and charming âeaster eggsâ throughout the home are a reflection of upgrades and craftsmanship from another era.With a footprint like this, the possibilities are exceptional. Whether restoring the homeâs mid-century roots or reinterpreting it with a modern design lens, this is a rare opportunity on Rosery Drive, one of Calgaryâs most coveted streets. Steps from Co nfederation Park and quietly tucked away, youâll enjoy inner-city living without hustle and bustle.This is a home that must be experienced in person to fully appreciate its potential.Book your private showing today and imagine what this iconic 1960s home could become.
