Description

Views, views, views! History, architecture and modern Calgary living come together in this exceptional top-floor residence in Inglewood’s iconic McGill Block. Built in 1911 by Calgary businessman Albert Dick, whose remarkable life included surviving the sinking of the Titanic, the McGill Block is one of the neighbourhood’s enduring architectural landmarks. Decades later, the building was given new life through the vision of architect and former Calgary Alderman Jack Long, preserving its heritage character while creating a distinctive setting for contemporary residences. Located on the top floor, this bright two-bedroom, one-bathroom condo captures the best of both worlds. The bedrooms offer views of downtown, the Deane House and both rivers. Renovated down to the studs approximately seven years ago, this home also features triple-glazed windows with UV coating for year-round comfort. Original character and modern design work beautifully together, with dramatic 12-foot ceilings, warm laminate flooring and an airy open-concept floor plan creating a space that feels both refined and inviting. The kitchen is designed to be as stylish as it is functional, combining crisp white cabinetry and quartz countertops with stainless steel appliances. A full quartz backsplash adds depth and personality, while contemporary pendant lighting and pot lights provide an elegant finishing touch. The bathroom carries the same sophisticated aesthetic, featuring a modern vanity and an exquisite oversized, fully tiled shower. An additional oversized storage room provides plenty of space for all your outdoor gear, from bikes to skis. And then there is the location. Stepping outside puts you in the heart of Inglewood—Calgary’s historic first neighbourhood and one of the city’s most vibrant destinations. Spend the morning at a local coffee shop, browse independent boutiques and galleries, enjoy dinner at one of the neighbourhood’s acclaimed restaurants, or catch live music at one of the area’s iconic venues. The Bow River pathways, Calgary zoo, green spaces and bird sanctuary are equally close, offering an easy escape into nature. Take advantage of Calgary’s extensive pathway system and walk or bike to work. Downtown is only minutes away, yet Inglewood has a character and energy all its own. For those who appreciate architecture, individuality and a walkable urban lifestyle, this is an opportunity to own a home with a story—and enjoy everything that makes this neighbourhood so special. Distinctive, beautifully renovated and wonderfully connected, this is Inglewood living with history at your doorstep.
