Incredibly rare opportunity to live “bungalow-style” in the heart of Calgary! Why be in a crowded apartment when you can have the benefits of a detached home in a secure gated complex RIGHT ON THE EDGE OF DOWNTOWN?! Live the urban lifestyle to the fullest in a spacious, fully renovated floor plan – complete with an executive kitchen, stainless appliances, a chef’s gas range, space for a wine fridge, a full island, and the ever-popular corner pantry. Plus wait until you see the beautiful patterning in the rare ‘exotic’ granite counters! You can easily feel the great open flow from the kitchen to the spacious dining area (perfect for entertaining) and the large living room. THIS is where the contemporary bungalow layout shines… because natural light is everywhere! Why would anyone want an apartment with windows only on one side? Off the living room is a small gallery which leads to the laundry room, a full bathroom, the huge 2nd bedroom and of course the master suite (which is complete with walk-in closet and lovely ensuite – and which also has patio doors to the rear balcony!)One of the most remarkable things about the secondary bedroom is that it is large. AND it has its own exterior door to the courtyard. HOW COOL IS THAT? Want to work from home? It’s perfect. Have a university aged child or guests from out of town? Again perfect. Thinking of having a housemate? Right – perfect for that too. The flexibility of an additional entrance is remarkable.The master area also provides everything you would want with flair. In fact, the custom ensuite shower even has a body spray feature! The dual sets of patio doors to the south-facing deck create a fantastic indoor/outdoor connection overlooking the park, while the ample space inside combined with the thoughtful improvements make for bright, well-appointed living. The entire home is also heated by luxurious in-slab radiant heat, making the beautiful plank flooring comfortable to bare feet even in the coldest weather , while the opposing windows of the ‘townhouse style’ design allow for natural air-flow through the space to keep cool in the heat of summer. Plus no worries here about keeping your windows open – the entire building and parkade are securely gated. There are so many reasons why this is such a rare opportunity. Secure urban living with a private courtyard, the rear balcony overlooking Thompson Park which is accessible by both the living room AND the master bedroom + has a natural gas BBQ! The abundance of windows, the Kinetico water softener dechlorinator for Calgary’s extremely hard water. Plus being just steps to 17th Ave and its abundance of shops & dining, the ease of dog ownership in a townhouse in the city core, walking to work, bike riding, tanning in the park – it’s all so easy here! Plus secure parking below the complex where you have TWO private parking stalls in a tandem layout with space for 2 large vehicles plus room for bikes and even a storage shed. It’s all here – DON’T MISS OUT! (id:44663)
