About this property

ATTENTION BUILDERS, DEVELOPERS & INVESTORS! This is an incredible opportunity to acquire a PRIME 49' x 107' MC-1 PARCEL with an APPROVED DEVELOPMENT PERMIT for 8 UNITS in Crescent Heights! With the blanket zoning repeal now passed, and new changes coming to R-CG to limit townhome density and allowable build locations, OPPORTUNITIES TO BUILD AT THIS DENSITY ARE FEW AND FAR BETWEEN! Plus, with DP approval already in place, you can avoid the chaos and the long wait times at the City of Calgary and start building right away. The approved 8-unit project features 4 thoughtfully designed 2-storey upper units, each with the option to develop as either 2-bed/2.5-bath or 3-bed/1.5-bath configurations, depending on preference and your target market. The 4 lower-level units are all 1-bed/1 bath, with separate entrances and private laundry areas. The existing property would also be IDEAL AS A BUY AND HOLD INVESTMENT. With over 1100 sq ft above grade, this 1.5 storey character home offers 3 bedrooms + den above grade, including 1 bedroom and full bathroom on the main floor, and 2 beds and a den upstairs. A fully finished basement offers an additional bedroom/flex room (window may not meet current egress requirements) and a 3-pc bathroom.
