The Residence
A Rare Offering in
Altadore/River Park
A very rare opportunity to own this expansive 1957 character home on a premium, sprawling lot in the highly desirable inner-city neighbourhood of Altadore/River Park. Situated beautifully above the Elbow River and directly across from a popular dog park, this well-cared-for original 4-bedroom residence with 2 full bathrooms and 2 powder rooms perfectly balances mid-century charm with an unparalleled location.
Elegant Entertaining, Everyday Ease
The main floor is designed for both elegant entertaining and comfortable family living — a massive front living room with pristine park views flowing into a formal dining area, a bright kitchen with a newer stainless steel appliance package, and an adjacent breakfast nook overlooking the lush backyard. One private den/office and a powder room complete this level.
A Sunken Family Room with Vintage Soul
The sunken family room boasts a distinct vintage vibe, a soaring vaulted ceiling, and a striking full-height brick fireplace — the warm heart of the home.
Two Private Wings Upstairs
All four bedrooms are on the upper level, where a clever split staircase creates two private wings: the children's wing offers three large bedrooms and a dedicated family bathroom, while the primary wing is a true adult retreat — a sprawling bedroom, a balcony overlooking the park, a luxurious ensuite with a deep soaker tub and steam shower, and a convenient upper laundry room.
Room to Live & Grow
The lower level hosts a massive recreation room and the home's second powder room, while out front an attached two-car garage sits off a spacious driveway.
A Dream Outdoor Oasis
The massive, mature backyard is a private oasis of lush perennials and mature trees, with three distinct outdoor seating areas: a charming Roman paver stone patio, a lower deck, and an upper deck just off the dining room.
A Generational Opportunity
Thoughtfully renovate this mid-century gem to its former glory, or utilize the incredible, expansive lot to build your ultimate custom dream home — a prime piece of Altadore/River Park real estate, exceptionally close to downtown with easy access to major transit routes and Marda Loop.

Area Guide
Altadore & Marda Loop Buyer Questions
What buyers moving to Altadore/River Park most often ask about the community, the schools and parks, and the walk to the shops and restaurants of Marda Loop.
About ten minutes on foot. The walk runs north through quiet residential streets to the 33rd and 34th Avenue SW shopping districts, so coffee, groceries and dinner are all reachable without moving the car — while the house itself sits on a calm street facing parkland rather than on a busy commercial avenue.
Marda Loop is a full village rather than a single strip, and it keeps growing. Along 33rd Avenue SW are Phil & Sebastian, Village Ice Cream, Blush Lane Organic and Lululemon. The newer 34th Avenue SW scene adds Dopo, Le Comptoir, Marda Loop Brewery, Penny Crown, Gardenia Floral Shop, F45 Marda Loop and Treats for Tats, among many others — a wave of new shops, cafés and restaurants that followed the Marda Loop Mainstreets redevelopment.
Altadore/River Park is the residential community; Marda Loop is the commercial district that serves it, centred on 33rd and 34th Avenue SW at the community's northern edge. Buyers who search for Marda Loop homes are almost always looking at Altadore addresses, because the shopping district itself has very few detached houses.
Most day-to-day needs are walkable — shops, cafés, schools, parks and pathways are all within the community. Transit runs along the 33rd and 34th Avenue corridors, and downtown Calgary is roughly ten minutes by car via 14th Street or Crowchild Trail. Many households here keep a car for convenience rather than necessity.
River Park and its popular off-leash dog park begin directly across the street, with pathways leading down to Sandy Beach and the Elbow River and into Calgary's wider river pathway network. Glenmore Athletic Park, Stu Peppard Arena and the Repsol Sport Centre are all a few minutes away, adding tennis, pickleball, skating and swimming.
It is one of the main reasons buyers choose the community. Fourteen schools serve the surrounding area, with Altadore School as the community elementary, and post-secondary options are minutes away. Combined with large mature lots, a protected streetscape and parkland across the road, families tend to settle here and stay for decades.
Yes — 14A Street SW sits in a wonderfully quiet pocket of the neighbourhood. It is a residential street with a deep front-yard setback protected by the River Park Restrictive Covenant, facing open parkland rather than other homes, so the amenities of Marda Loop are close enough to walk to but far enough away that the street stays calm.
The combination is hard to reproduce elsewhere in Calgary: an established inner-city location minutes from downtown, mature tree-lined streets, generous original lots, walkable shopping and dining, and a concentration of schools and recreation. Because so little of the housing stock is original and park-facing, offerings like this one come to market rarely.
A Protected Streetscape
The River Park Restrictive Covenant
When this part of Altadore/River Park was first developed more than sixty years ago, the homes fronting 14A Street and the east side of 15th Street — including this residence — had a set of restrictive covenants, known as a private building scheme, registered against their titles by way of Caveat. These long-standing protections remain valid and enforceable today, and they are a cornerstone of why this street looks the way it does.
Single-Family Only
All homes must be single-family residences — semi-attached homes, infills, row houses and other multi-family developments are strictly prohibited.
Two Storeys Maximum
No home may be more than two storeys, preserving the low, gracious scale of the streetscape.
Generous Front Setbacks
Front yards must be at least 25 feet deep — deeper than the City's current Land-Use Bylaw requires.
Wide Side Yards
Side yards must be at least 10% of lot width, protecting light, privacy and the mature garden setting.
Where the Covenant's terms are more restrictive than the current City of Calgary Land-Use Bylaw, a new build or major renovation must comply with both — a City development permit does not override the Caveat. Buyers planning future changes are encouraged to review the Covenant, registered against the title, with their architect and builder.
For the neighbourhood's homeowners, the Covenant has long been regarded as an important protection of the existing streetscapes, views, privacy, green space, single-family character and property values — a rare assurance of stability along one of the city's most beautiful streets.

Frequently Asked
Altadore/River Park is an established inner-city community in southwest Calgary, bounded by the Elbow River and River Park to the east and Marda Loop's 33rd and 34th Avenue shopping districts to the north. Buyers searching Marda Loop real estate are usually looking at Altadore addresses like this one: the same walkable village amenities, on quieter tree-lined residential streets a short walk south.
A registered Caveat enforces a private building scheme on 14A Street SW: single-family homes only, to a maximum of two storeys, with semi-attached homes, infills and multi-family development prohibited. Front yards must be at least 25 feet deep and side yards at least 10% of lot width. Buyers planning changes should review the registered document with their architect and builder.
The residence sits beautifully above the Elbow River, directly across from River Park's green space and its popular off-leash dog park, with immediate access to the River Park and Sandy Beach pathway system. The open parkland outlook across the street is a permanent part of the setting rather than a neighbouring lot that could change.
Yes. The home is an easy walk to the shops, services and restaurants of Marda Loop, so day-to-day errands, coffee and dinner are all reachable on foot while the house itself sits on a quiet residential street fronting green space.
Fourteen schools serve the surrounding area, with Altadore School as the community elementary school. The concentration of nearby options is one of the main reasons families settle in Altadore/River Park and stay for many years.
Built in 1957, this detached two-storey residence offers 2,579 square feet above grade with all 4 bedrooms on the upper level, plus 1 main-floor den/office, 2 full bathrooms and 2 powder rooms.

The main floor includes a park-view living room, formal dining, kitchen with breakfast nook, sunken family room with vaulted ceiling and full-height brick fireplace, plus the den/office and a powder room. The home has two gas fireplaces. The lower level hosts a massive recreation room and the second powder room.
