REMEMBER WHEN A ONE-BEDROOM ACTUALLY HAD ROOM TO LIVE? THIS IS WHAT A ONE-BEDROOM USED TO LOOK LIKE. At almost 900 sq. ft., this south-facing 1-bedroom + den at Riverwest reminds you how much MORE space condo living used to offer. While many newer downtown one-bedrooms have traded square footage for efficiency, this one gives you room to actually spread out. You can feel the difference the moment you walk in. There's room for a proper dining table, a living room that doesn't require apartment-sized furniture, a spacious primary bedroom that currently accommodates a king-sized bed with plenty of room to spare, and a separate den that's actually useful. Use it as a home office, hobby room, or flex space - close the door when you're done and keep your living space for living. Fresh light paint, newer luxury vinyl plank flooring, an open -concept floorplan, and updated lighting give the home a brighter, more current feel. The kitchen offers granite countertops, ample cabinetry, an eating bar, and a garburator, while a gas fireplace anchors the main living space. Large south-facing windows bring in plenty of natural light, and your private balcony comes with a unique Calgary bonus: front-row views of the Stampede Parade route, without having to join the crowds below. The primary bedroom connects through a walk-through closet to the 4-piece bathroom, where heated floors, glass shower panels, and granite counters add a little extra comfort. In-suite laundry, underground parking (#236), and an assigned storage locker (#50) take care of the everyday practicalities. Riverwest is a concrete high-rise, pet-friendly building with board approval, offering an indoor pool, hot tub, fitness centre, visitor parking, and bike storage. At $671.12/month in condo fees, or approximately $0.76/sq. ft. - the condo fees are very attractive for almost 900 sq. ft. of downtown living with this level of amenities - and they include heat and water. Step outside and, the Bow River pathways, Prince 's Island Park, Kensington, downtown offices, and the CTrain are all close by. The nearby CTrain connects you through Calgary's downtown Free Fare Zone, making it easy to move through the core without having to worry about parking, while convenient access to major roadways gets you north, south, or out toward the mountains. Whether you're a downtown professional looking for more breathing room, downsizing from a house without wanting to downsize your entire life, looking for the flexibility of a separate den, or an investor who sees the appeal of offering more space and amenities than many of today's compact downtown options, and in a solid concrete building, this home offers something increasingly difficult to find: the convenience of condo living without sacrificing the space to actually live.
