What a gem in Riverbend! Original owners are finally willing to part with this meticulously well-maintained former showhome located just a short walk from the shores of the Bow river & pathways, Carburn park, and the Sue Higgins park – home to the largest fenced off-leash dog park in Calgary. It’s also just down the street from the neighbourhood play park and only a five-minute walk to Riverbend School, the Community Association & the community outdoor rink. The home itself offers beautiful renovations that are pleasing to the eye, plus unseen comforts such as AIR CONDITIONING, heated tile floors throughout, water softener, gas hookups on the deck & central vac. All that plus the beauty and warmth of a well designed home. The open and flexible main floor plan offers a spacious and welcoming foyer that leads to a front living room that is open to the dining room – perfect for entertaining! The back of the house features a great room made cozy by a beautiful gas fireplace and a spectacular chef’s dream of a kitchen featuring an 8 ft gorgeous granite covered island and beautiful cabinetry. Double garden doors lead out to the large fenced yard and huge 2 tiered deck & patio that makes outdoor entertaining a breeze. Rounding out the main floor is a laundry fit for guests and a gorgeous 2pc bath. Upstairs there is a big 5 piece main bath that will accommodate all the kids, an office space with built-in desk and cabinetry, 2 spacious secondary bedrooms and a large primary bedroom that features a walk-in closet and a stunning 5pc ensuite that offers separate toilet/bath and vanity spaces. All bathrooms have been upgraded throughout and feature matching granite. The basement has been developed to include a spacious rec room with walk-up wet bar and a den/gym/craft room. All this and still there's still room for a ton of storage or future development. As for storage, the oversized double garage and storage shed will ensure there is space to store everything. Close by amenities include shopping, banking, restaurants, medical/dental offices and one of the best YMCA’s in the city. You must see this home!
