West Hillhurst

Established in 1914, Hillhurst is one of Calgary’s oldest neighbourhoods. The boundaries of the community include 8 Avenue, N and 16 Avenue N, 10 Street 2 W to the east, the Bow River to the south and both 14 Street W and 18 Street to the west. Most of the popular Kensington business area resides within the Hillhurst community and offers an active family-friendly area with amenities galore.

In 1907, Calgary set the size of the lots in Hillhurst at 25 ft. and these sold for $300.00 per lot. In the early days, Hillhurst was mostly a slough. As more and more people purchased and moved to the area, the dirt trails and wooden sidewalks gave way to paved / lit roadways and concrete sidewalks.

Hillhurst is presently a community with a population of approximately 5000. The small well-kept houses and treelined streets are the result of over 80 years of care and hard work. Hillhurst has seen a revival over the past few years with a host of new residential development, including single family homes and semi-detached homes by local Calgary builders.

Luxury intertwines with sophistication in this meticulously renovated, spacious penthouse in Hillhurst. Just steps from Kensington's shops, the Bow River, and the downtown core, this condo offers a premier living experience. Located in the boutique 12-unit "Villagio" building with superior ICF construction for soundproofing and energy efficiency, the unit features a semi-private elevator opening directly to the main door. A majestic foyer welcomes you with soaring ceilings, illuminated by a skylight overhead, setting the stage for the open-concept design of this two-level condo, boasting 18-foot ceilings and a south-facing wall of windows that flood the space with natural light. The central living area includes a custom stone gas fireplace and an imported handblown 120-piece glass chandelier. One of two south-facing patios is accessible through the living area, perfect for relaxation or entertaining. The culinary masterpiece kitchen features top-of-the-line appliances, including a Thermador Dual Fuel Gas stove and Sapphire dishwasher, a Viking fridge and built-in microwave. Hand-selected quartzite countertops elevate the space, complemented by imported hand-blown and cut custom light fixtures that add a touch of sophistication. The adjacent dining area includes a custom wine area with oak racking, a built-in buffet, which has a wine fridge and is trimmed in exquisite quartzite countertops. Adding to the ambiance is a unique custom light fixture that harmonizes with the kitchen design. The primary retreat on the main level offers a built-in chest of drawers and a spa-like ensuite, boasting dual sinks with Hansgrohe bathroom fixtures, a luxurious quartzite countertop, a rejuvenating steam shower, and a custom-ordered cast iron slipper tub, all leading to the generously-sized walk-in closet. A powder bathroom and laundry facilities complete the main floor. Ascending to the upper level, you'll discover a second bedroom that leads to a spacious in-unit storage room, providing ample space for belongings. A catwalk hallway overlooking the living room below guides you to a three-piece washroom and a flexible area perfect for a home office. This versatile space is enhanced by patio doors that lead out to a second south-facing patio, offering a serene outdoor retreat. This exquisite residence has undergone extensive renovations, including new quarter-sawn engineered oak floors on the main level and newer carpet on the upper level. A modern railing overlooking the living room adds to the contemporary aesthetic, complemented by fresh paint throughout and new remote-controlled window coverings. For optimal comfort, a newly installed Fujitsu Mini-split 4 Zone Inverter provides flexible climate control options, offering AC, heat, or fan settings with individual area/room control. The unit includes two titled parking stalls, generously sized to accommodate a full-sized truck. This unit truly deserves to be seen to be fully appreciated, an opportunity not to be missed.
