Welcome to a rare opportunity to own a piece of Calgary’s heritage in the beautifully preserved McGill Block—a landmark building steeped in history and thoughtfully modernized for contemporary living. Originally built in 1911 by Albert Dick, a prominent Calgary businessman and Titanic survivor, this historic structure was later revitalized by renowned architect and former Alderman Jack Long, seamlessly blending old-world charm with urban sophistication. Perched on the top floor, this stylish 2-bedroom, 1-bath condo is the perfect balance of character and design. Step into a sun-soaked open-concept layout where soaring ceilings and rich hardwood floors set the tone for a home that feels as elevated as it is inviting. The modern kitchen is a showstopper: featuring sleek stainless steel and black appliances, a bold smokey hex backsplash, glossy white cabinetry, quartz countertops, and eye-catching pendant lighting—a true chef’s delight with a designer’s touch. Unwind in the spa-inspired bathroom, complete with crisp white ceramic tile, a contemporary vanity, and matte black fixtures that bring a sophisticated edge to the space. Set in the heart of Inglewood, Calgary’s oldest and most iconic neighbourhood, this home puts you in the centre of a thriving, creative, and community-driven area. Known for its vibrant arts and culture scene, Inglewood is home to live music venues, craft breweries, indie boutiques, award-winning restaurants, and artisan coffee shops. Nature lovers will appreciate the easy access to Bow River pathways, bird sanctuaries, and green spaces, while urban dwellers will love being just minutes from the downtown core. Whether you’re a professional seeking an urban retreat or a design enthusiast drawn to historic architecture, this unique home offers a rare chance to live where heritage meets modern luxury.
