About this property

Welcome to 5919 Thornton Road NW, a beautifully renovated bungalow offering over 2,000 sq. ft. of developed living space in the heart of the established community of Thorncliffe. Blending original character with thoughtful modern updates, this 5-bedroom, 2-bathroom home delivers timeless style, exceptional functionality, and an inviting atmosphere throughout. The bright and spacious main level is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring refinished oak hardwood flooring, upgraded trim and crown moulding, while large windows flood the open living and dining areas with natural light. The fully renovated kitchen is a true showpiece, complete with custom cabinetry, extensive prep space, pull-out storage, stainless steel appliances, a gas range with pot filler, an apron-front sink, and premium finishes throughout. The spacious primary bedroom offers a comfortable retreat, while two additional bedrooms and a beautifully updated 4-piece bathroom complete the main level. The fully developed lower level continues the home's exceptional quality with a large family room centred around a cozy gas fireplace. Two generously sized bedrooms, each featuring new egress windows, provide excellent flexibility for family or guests, while the beautifully renovated 4-piece bathroom with in-floor heat adds a touch of luxury. The lower level also offers generous storage space and additional flexibility for future development or the potential for a secondary suite (subject to City approval and permitting). Outside, the west-facing backyard is a private retreat offering the perfect balance of beauty and functionality. Thoughtfully landscaped with mature trees, established gardens, perennials, a greenhouse, and a garden shed, it provides space for both avid gardeners and those simply looking to relax outdoors.

The property also features a garage and additional rear parking with convenient lane access, along with an extended front driveway, providing excellent space for an RV, boat, camper, trailer, or multiple vehicles. The home has also benefited from numerous major upgrades, including a brand-new sewer line - a significant improvement for the area, along with newer windows, updated siding, a newer roof, and countless additional renovations completed throughout the home, providing peace of mind for years to come. Located on a quiet, tree-lined street in the established community of Thorncliffe, you'll enjoy quick access to schools, parks, shopping, transit, and major commuter routes, with downtown Calgary just minutes away.
