** Be sure to watch the full cinematic home tour of this stunning home with Prime location!! Sunnyside got its streetcar in 1912 - and so did this house, built the same year the rails turned a working-class district along the Bow into one of Calgary's most coveted inner-city addresses. 114 years later, the trees are mature, the infill product on this block is setting price-per-square-foot numbers that are impossible to ignore, and 909 5 Street NW sits squarely in the middle of it on a 25 x 120 lot with rear lane access. For a builder, the math is straightforward: a clean redevelopment opportunity in one of Calgary's most reliable inner-city corridors, surrounded by premium new builds, with R-CG flexibility currently on the table - single-family, semi-detached, or rowhouse up to four units, each allowing a secondary suite, without a separate land-use redesignation (subject to approvals and permitting by the municipality). Calgary's blanket rezoning remains in effect until August 4, 2026, after which the path narrows significantly. For a buyer who'd rather hold and live in it, the property delivers immediately. The 1912 character home offers approximately 735 sq ft of honest charm: a bright 2-bedroom layout, a full 4-piece bath, a decorative fireplace anchoring the living room, a real dining area that fits a proper table, and a workable kitchen with serious cabinetry. The covered, glassed-in front porch is a feature new builds can't replicate - a quiet, sun-warmed spot for morning coffee on one of Sunnyside's prettiest tree-lined streets. The unfinished basement handles laundry and storage, and the west-facing backyard offers a sunny deck and excellent garden potential. The location does the rest: a short walk to Sunnyside LRT and the Peace Bridge into downtown, Kensington's cafs and restaurants at the end of the block, and Bow River Pathway, Riley Park, and Hillhurst-Sunnyside Park all within a few minutes on foot - anchored by a community association that has been actively shaping the neighbourhood since 1942. Two stories live on this lot: own a piece of Calgary's working-class history, or move on a closing redevelopment window in a corridor that's been proving itself for a decade. Either way, opportunities like this don't sit. (id:58753)
