Arguably one of the best locations in the city. Backing onto the Bow River with dramatic views, this 2 storey walkout home sits on a very quiet and peaceful southwest facing lot (A/C for those warm summer days), has over 3500 sq ft of total living space and is in show home condition (10/10). Quoted as being a luxury getaway cottage with the convenience of being in the city. These original owners did a down to the studs, luxury renovation in 2012 on the main and upper levels (both with flat painted ceilings), and then completed the basement with modern upgrades and design in 2020. Main floor has beautiful hardwood floors throughout, creating a warmth for the entire home. A gourmet kitchen with a Dacor six burner, dual fuel range, stunning custom hood fan, built-in fridge, warming drawer and oodles of counter space and storage. Connected to the kitchen is an espresso bar with wine fridge and an extended island with seating for 4. This open concept kitchen overlooks the large and spacious living area with wood burning fireplace and large, picturesque windows (all windows have been replaced with triple pane windows) bringing in loads of natural light. Double French doors off the eating area with access out to the back composite deck overlooking a massive back yard with more than a few areas to sit and enjoy the views for days. At the front of the house is a dining room, mudroom with built-ins coming from the double attached garage and large laundry room with utility sink and built-in desk. The upper level consists of 3 generous sized bedrooms including a master retreat with the spa in mind. Heated tile floors, a 5-piece ensuite with a claw tub, fully tiled glass shower, double vanities, a separate makeup vanity area, built-in closet and a walk-in closet with loads of custom built-in organizers. Topping it off and best of all are the views out the large picture windows. The walk out basement with 9’ft ceilings was finished for the teenagers or guests in mind. With a wet bar area, custom window seating, built-in shelving units with another gas fireplace as well as the 4th bedroom and 3-piece bathroom.
