WEST SIDE ACREAGE WITH STUNNING VIEWS
First time on the rental market! Located just outside city limits on Calgary’s west side and only 1.5 minutes from the West Calgary Ring Road, this large and impressive home is situated on 4 acres in the midst of a gated 98-acre estate – one of the most sought-after properties in highly prestigious Springbank.
The home is perched on a bluff overlooking all of South Springbank, with sweeping views of the Rocky Mountains to the west, golf course views to the south and city views to the east.
WELL-APPOINTED LIVING SPACES
At 4,400 sq. feet (6,600 including the undeveloped basement) this is one of the larger homes in the area. Enter through the double doors into a large foyer which opens to a library/living room, adjacent to a massive home office – a work from home dream (can also be used as an additional bedroom/flex room).
Proceed up the open riser staircase to the main living area (upper floor) featuring an expansive vaulted ceiling throughout. The first stop is the living room of your dreams, with a front wall of glass that spans 50 feet, affording some of the best views in all of Springbank. This impressive space is also adorned with a large, high-end gas fireplace.
Off the living room is a formal dining room and centre hall which doubles as additional sitting or working space. The massive kitchen with island is a chef’s dream with oversized fridge, wall-oven, cooktop, microwave and top-of-the-line Bosch dishwasher. The kitchen nook opens to a balcony that wraps around the house on three sides (both levels).
MULTIPLE BEDROOMS AND FLEX ROOMS
The home features 4 bedrooms and 2 flex rooms suitable for home office, home theatre room, gym and/or extra bedrooms. Key among these is the huge primary bedroom which offers mountain views, a large walk-in closet, ensuite and balcony.
ABILITY TO SEPARATE INTO TWO SUITES
The home works well as a single home suitable for a family, a family with live-in help or professionals seeking an elevated living experience. However, by closing a set of French doors that separates a portion of the main floor, the home can also be configured as two suites, each with their own entrance, kitchen, living areas, bedrooms, bathroom and laundry – great for shared living situations.
BEAUTIFUL OUTDOR LIVING SPACES
The four-acre yard included with the rental is low-maintenance and nicely landscaped providing a park-like setting including gardens and play spaces. The yard is surrounded on all sides by an additional 94 acres where horses graze freely. Take in the views from the many different outdoor sitting areas from which you can enjoy watching the resident wildlife including deer, moose, hawks and more.
GREAT AMENITIES
