Welcome to the Rideout (Mitchell-Sproule) Residence, a designated Municipal Historic Resource located in Calgary’s sought-after Upper Mount Royal community. Built in 1912, this beautifully maintained Craftsman-style home offers a rare blend of preserved heritage detail and thoughtful modern updates. Positioned on a quiet pie-shaped lot, the property enjoys elevated views of the downtown skyline and Nose Hill Park.This two-storey residence features four generously sized bedrooms, a comfortable library or entertainment area, and a wine/root cellar tucked beneath a main floor powder room added in 2015. The original millwork with leaded glass, restored quarter-sawn oak, and a hidden liquor cabinet from the Prohibition era speak to the home’s storied past. A major renovation completed in the 1990s introduced radiant stone floor heating, oak hardwood, and custom finishes throughout, enhancing comfort while maintaining architectural integrity.The kitchen, renovated in 1995 by Empire Kitchen & Bath, includes Downsview cabinetry, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, a custom copper hood fan, and city-facing windows that bring natural light into the space. The front veranda overlooks a mature garden established over 77 years ago, now a vibrant arboretum featuring multiple species of larch trees and a tranquil pond that attracts a variety of birds. Outdoor dining areas are integrated into the landscape, creating a private urban retreat.Heating is provided through a combination of radiant and hot water baseboard systems. A wood-burning fireplace anchors the main living area, while leaded-glass built-ins and original detailing add warmth and character. There is potential to reconfigure the upper level to create a spacious primary suite. The property also includes an oversized detached double garage, providing ample space for vehicles and storage.This home offers a unique opportunity to own a piece of Calgary’s architectural history, with all the benefits of contemporary urban living in a premier inner-city location.
