An architectural masterpiece awaits at 1905 42 Avenue SW, where timeless European-inspired design meets modern luxury and exceptional craftsmanship. Offered as a rare pre-construction opportunity, this remarkable residence showcases a striking red brick façade, dramatic arched windows, and sophisticated black accents, creating a truly distinctive presence.
Inside, approximately 2,821 sq. ft. of above-grade living space has been thoughtfully designed with an emphasis on elegance, functionality, and refined finishes. The open-concept main floor welcomes you with soaring windows, an abundance of natural light, and extensive custom oak detailing throughout. A beautiful formal dining area flows seamlessly into the expansive kitchen, featuring an oversized island, built-in appliances, and a thoughtfully designed butler’s pantry. The adjoining living room is anchored by a stunning statement fireplace, creating an inviting space for both entertaining and everyday living. A private home office, elegant powder room, and spacious mudroom complete the main level.
Upstairs, the primary retreat offers an atmosphere of understated luxury, highlighted by a dramatic double-sided fireplace connecting the bedroom and spa-inspired ensuite. A freestanding soaker tub, oversized shower, beautifully appointed vanity, and generous walk-in closet create a private sanctuary. Two additional bedrooms, each with their own ensuite, provide comfort and privacy, while a conveniently located laundry room completes the upper floor.
The fully developed basement offers approximately 1,364 sq. ft. of additional living space, thoughtfully designed for entertainment and wellness. A spacious recreation area, wet bar, private sauna, and stunning glass-enclosed gym create the ultimate at-home retreat. A fourth bedroom, full bathroom, and in-floor heating throughout the basement further elevate the space.
Outside, an oversized detached garage with heating and epoxy flooring provides exceptional functionality and convenience.
What truly sets this property apart is the opportunity to make it your own. With construction underway, purchasers have the unique opportunity to **bring their own designer or collaborate with the builder’s designer** to personalize select finishes and design elements, bringing their vision to life and creating a home that truly reflects their individual style. All customization options are subject to construction progress and builder approval.
Combining timeless architecture, extensive oak craftsmanship, luxurious amenities, and thoughtful attention to detail, this residence offers a rare opportunity to create a truly bespoke home in one of Calgary’s most desirable inner-city communities.
