The suite is the whole conversation on this one.
📍 New Brighton SE · 4bd/3.5ba · 1,949 sqft · Asking $679,900
Honestly, the finished basement with a separate side-access entrance through the garage changes what this home actually costs you to carry. Most four-bedrooms at this price in SE Calgary are just four bedrooms. This one gives you income flexibility or multi-generational living, and that's worth pricing separately in your head before you compare it to anything else on the street.

What I'd walk in person is how the garage entrance works day-to-day for privacy between the two units, and I'd confirm the suite's permit history with the City.

🔑 If you're considering it: get the suite permit history and have an inspector look at the 2008 mechanical before you make a move.
