About this property
Incredible location in mature Bowness! This property sits on a spacious 5,995 sq. ft. private, fenced rectangular city lot featuring a south facing PRIVATE backyard with convenient back lane access with less foot traffic than most locations. A true lifestyle location—enjoy immediate proximity to the Bow River, extensive park pathways, local playgrounds, and excellent fishing. Familiarly located within walking distance to community schools, public transit, and excellent local shopping. Whether you are looking for a fantastic holding property, your next renovation project, or looking to build a dream home in Northwest Calgary, this lot delivers endless potential. Complete with a PRIVATE SOUTH facing backyard (provides optimal gardening and lounge lighting) and great curb appeal. Only an eight-minute walk to Superstore! What outstanding value this home and land is! Ask your Realtor to compare this property to 6388 31 Avenue NW which sold for $749,900 or about $125 per sq. ft. for the land. 6379 31 avenue is listed at $599,000 or about $99 per sq. ft. for the land and where it trumps 6388 31 Avenue NW is that it has a PRIVATE WARM SUNNY SOUTH facing back yard! What amazing value! No Side-Street Traffic Exposure: Avoid the noise and visibility of cars turning or headlights shining from the intersecting avenue flank. Safer for Pets and Kids: Lacks dual-sided road exposure, providing a much more contained and controlled environment. In the winter - only 50 feet of snow shoveling out front! In the spring early back yard snow melt! This property has Clean Rectangular Lot Lines: Features a highly uniform, rectangular footprint that is cheaper to fence and landscape cleanly. Simpler Multi-Family Staging: Absent of corner-lot traffic constraints, it offers easier site staging and material drop-off lanes for future custom builds. This is an amazing property located close to amenities and a short commute to City Centre!
