Mount Royal is one of the most beautiful and prestigious communities in Calgary. Developed in the early 20th century by the CP Railway, it is known for its stately homes, tree-lined streets and proximity to downtown. The section that includes Durham Avenue is one of the most historic. 916 Durham Avenue is a massive and relatively flat lot, nearly .29 of an acre. Boundary dimensions are 100’ x 125’. The current land use is DC 1Z98 and there is no Restrictive Covenant. The property is offered as land for future development. The existing 1928 home is in mostly original condition and the seller is not attributing any value to it. Schedule A must accompany all offers (“as is, where is” - see supplements).
