1950 build.
This house is a ####ing monster. It helps that it’s constructed with probably some of the last real commercially available old growth Douglas Fir. The studs in this place are gorgeous. The rock and plaster walls are an inch thick. The original maple floors came back beautifully.
And it has 70+ years of proven ability to withstand Calgary weather. We don’t have water intrusion during storms, no bull#### ‘warranty’ repair for a leaking roof every year, no siding that gets blown off in the wind. I’ll take it any day of the week.
