Designed beyond the ordinary
Stone architecture, custom millwork, premium appliances, spa-level tilework, smart systems, and established landscaping create a home that feels far beyond a standard infill or condominium.
Edmonton Little Italy / Church Street
10920 96 Street NW
A rare urban residence in Edmonton's Little Italy
1,765 sq ft of custom-designed living with rooftop views, private garage, and boutique-level finishes — offered at $499,000.
The proposition
House-like scale, central access, and a level of finish rarely found at this price.
This is not a tower condo, and it is not a suburban compromise. It is a central residence with private gated entry, real architectural presence, substantial cast-stone exterior cladding, main and upper-floor living, secure garage parking, and rooftop outdoor space.
The value is in how those choices work together. You get the privacy and scale many buyers look for outside the core, with the walkability, character, hospitals, campuses, civic offices, and downtown employment corridors that shape daily life in central Edmonton. It is a home built around material substance, practical function, and long-term livability, not just square footage on a listing sheet.
An uncommon equation
Where design, space, and access meet.
Space with independence
Approximately 1,765 sq ft, a private garage, rooftop patio, and house-like volume offer independence without the feel of tower living.
Close to the city's daily rhythm
Minutes from Royal Alex, Glenrose, Hys Centre, NAIT, MacEwan, the courts, civic offices, downtown dining, and Edmonton's central employment corridors.

A dual-wing upper level creates two private retreats, each with spa-inspired ensuite design and a sense of separation rarely found in central attached homes.

Ownership Lens
The Ownership Lens
Some buyers begin by searching for more space. Others begin by questioning whether the lifestyle they've been renting could become something they own.
For those already choosing design, location, walkability, and access, ownership can sometimes look different than expected.
A private entrance. A rooftop patio. A garden. Two primary-style suites. Minutes from downtown, the river valley, and Edmonton's expanding bike and transit network.

Central proximity

The location story is not simply Little Italy. It is the ability to stay central without moving into a box in the sky. Walk, bike, and transit scores are sourced from WalkScore.com and reflect the property's access to Little Italy, downtown, health-campus, civic, and education nodes.

Neighbourhood
Emerging Urban Pocket
Our part of Edmonton sits between the energy of Little Italy and the momentum shaping the core, offering a different perspective on central living.
Close enough to participate. Removed enough to breathe.
Mature tree canopies line the side streets. New public investment is reshaping roads, sidewalks, and streetscapes. The bike network carries commuters, students, and weekend riders between the river valley, downtown, and surrounding communities. LRT access remains close. So do some of the city's most important healthcare institutions.
What makes this pocket particularly interesting is that many of its strongest changes are being driven by people who have already chosen to live here.
Residents, entrepreneurs, business owners, and community advocates have spent years investing their time, energy, and resources into the neighbourhood's next chapter. Across Little Italy, public investment, residential reinvestment, and new infill housing continue to reshape the streetscape while preserving the character that drew people here in the first place.
Teresa Spinelli's continued commitment offers one visible example. The continued expansion of the Italian Centre district, Spinelli Bar Italia, Sorrentino's, The Piazza, and other neighbourhood initiatives reflect a long-term belief in the area's future. Rather than looking elsewhere, many of the people helping shape the community have chosen to keep building where their roots already exist.
The result is a neighbourhood with history, texture, and momentum. Close to the core without feeling sealed inside it. Familiar enough to feel established. Early enough to still feel discovered.
Arts & Education
Victoria School of the Arts sits only a short walk away.
For families with a creative child, few Edmonton addresses place a K to 12 arts-focused education quite this close to home. Music, theatre, dance, visual arts, and academic programming all exist within walking distance of the front door.
For a healthcare worker, educator, entrepreneur, or single parent raising a creative young person, proximity can become part of the lifestyle equation.
Healthcare & Professional Life
Royal Alexandra Hospital, the Glenrose Rehabilitation Hospital, and the Hys Centre are all nearby.
For many healthcare professionals, researchers, support staff, and medical families, daily commutes can often be measured in minutes rather than neighbourhood crossings.
Food, Coffee & Community
The strongest urban neighbourhoods tend to announce themselves through their food culture long before the wider market catches up.
- Tony's Pizza
- Spinelli Bar Italia
- Sorrentino's
- Zocalo
- Thanh Thanh
- Padmanadi
- Syphay
Long before a neighbourhood becomes fashionable, people begin crossing the city to eat there. By that measure, the market may simply be catching up to what locals have known for a long time.
History & Character
History remains visible here.
From St. Josaphat Cathedral to Sacred Heart Church and the historic landmarks that helped give Church Street its name, the neighbourhood carries architectural character that newer districts simply cannot replicate.
The opportunity is not to replicate the downtown tower experience.
The opportunity is to remain connected to everything that makes central living appealing while gaining what many urban buyers eventually begin searching for: more space, more privacy, outdoor living, and ownership itself.
Close to work.
Close to culture.
Close to transit.
Close to the river valley.
Connected to the city, with the qualities that make a home feel personal.
Buyer fit
A beautiful home that solves real problems for you.
Built for Alberta weather, everyday routines, and space you can actually feel.
A home this visually striking should also make sense in real life. The cast-stone exterior is one of the first things people notice, but it is not just an aesthetic choice. It gives the building weight, permanence, and material substance that many lighter siding systems cannot match. In an Alberta climate where hail, heat, fire exposure, and long-term weathering are real homeowner concerns, that exterior becomes part of the value story.
The floor level matters too. Main and upper-floor living avoids many of the concerns buyers associate with below-grade bedrooms, basement living, and finished lower spaces. It is not a promise against every risk. It is simply a smarter starting point for buyers who are thinking more carefully about water, weather, and long-term livability.
Inside, the layout solves a different kind of problem. Instead of breaking the home into smaller rooms, extra walls, more doorways, and space you have to clean, but may not ever use, you get two oversized private suites with room to breathe. You will feel that difference immediately when you first tour the home. The rooms are calmer, more generous, and more flexible than a typical layout chasing bedroom count.
That flexibility matters in daily life. Couples with different schedules can create real separation. A professional can work from home without giving up a proper guest space. A single parent with one child gets two generous zones instead of cramped rooms fighting for function. Downsizers keep scale without maintaining bedrooms they do not need. Guests and family visitors get a suite that feels intentional, not leftover.
The garage, front garden, rooftop patio, central location, bike routes, and transit access are not isolated amenities. Together, they reduce daily friction. You have secure parking and a storage shed at the rear, a rooftop patio above the garage, a seasonal garden out front for morning coffee and street life, and quick access to downtown Edmonton and the city's bike-lane network.
That is the value of this home: material choices, layout quality, and long-term livability working together. It is stunning, but it is not just trying to be admired. It is built to make everyday life feel easier, more spacious, and more considered.
