Situated on a large 50’ x 120’ lot with North/South exposure, this detached estate home is a true example of inner-city luxury. Boasting four bedrooms, over 5,000 square feet of living space (3,505 sq ft above grade) and a RARE triple detached garage, this home features upgraded finishes over all three levels and qualities not found elsewhere in this neighbourhood or market.

This home features large profile tile, plush carpet, extensive custom millwork, and oversized windows throughout. Wired for sound in all rooms, this home features built-in ceiling speakers throughout and has rough-ins for an outdoor zone as well.

Located in popular West Hillhurst, this upscale community is a favourite among families and professionals alike thanks to its proximity to great schools, major roadways and easy access to the Downtown core.

Beyond the front door, this home showcases a grand 2-storey entryway with a built-in closet and views to the second floor above. Just inside the foyer, an open to above ceiling feature highlights three huge crystal chandeliers and serves as the true focal point of the home.

At the rear of the home, the open-concept kitchen, dining and living room is a treat for those who like to entertain. The chef-inspired kitchen features upgraded granite countertops, a glass tile backsplash, and custom ceiling-height cabinetry with open top displays, undermount feature lighting, pullout spice racks on both sides of the gas cooktop and pullout garbage bins beside the sink.

The stainless-steel appliance package includes a 6-burner gas cooktop with a hoodfan and counter-mounted pot filler, built-in convection wall oven and microwave, dishwasher and oversized refrigerator/freezer with a water and ice dispenser. The oversized central island has wine storage on two sides, a dual-basin Blanco Silgranite sink and a bulkhead feature with three designer pendants above. There is no shortage of storage in this kitchen with ample upper and lower cabinet, plentiful drawers and a custom walk-in pantry with a glass door, automatic lighting and tons of built-in shelves.

Adjacent to the kitchen, the dining area has space for a large table and overlooks the backyard through oversized windows.

The comfortable living area centres on a stunning feature wall with a gas fireplace and tile surround, and extensive maple built-ins with recessed feature lighting, open displays and recessed plug-ins for a wall-mounted TV. A unique maple bulkhead above has a ceiling fan and recessed LED feature lighting with a remote-controlled programmable display to change the lighting to multiple colours.

At the centre of it all, perhaps the most interesting feature of the main floor is the indoor/outdoor covered courtyard that is accessible year-round through sliding glass doors. This incredible entertaining space features a sealed aggregate concrete floor, a full-height stone fireplace and a stained wood screen for privacy and protection from the elements. This outdoor oasis has plenty of space for furniture, a designer chandelier as well as built-in speakers, making it the perfect space to enjoy evenings with friends or family.

At the front of the home, a private den features a full-height glass wall, with custom built-in shelves and windows to both the front street and the courtyard. Located away from the main living space for privacy, this is the perfect home office.

Perfect for families, the triple detached garage is accessible from a tiled rear mudroom with tons of storage including a built-in closet, built-in bench, drawers, hooks and cubbies. Rounding out the main floor, a beautiful 2-piece powder room features full-height tile on all walls with a modern floating vanity with granite countertops, feature lighting and a glass pendant light above.

A work of art in itself, an open-riser, carpet wrapped staircase with maple stringers, glass guards and chrome railings leads to the impressive second level which features a bright bonus room, three large bedrooms, three FULL bathrooms, and laundry. Highlighted by a 2-storey window wall, the second level overlooks the front foyer and also features a stunning chandelier feature that opens to the main floor below, with glass guards on all sides for safety.

The sunny south-facing bonus room features built-in speakers and a built-in media unit, and makes for the perfect secondary family room.

Double glass French doors lead to the upgraded master suite which features plush carpet and an elegant 2-sided fireplace with a tile surround. The incredible master closet features large profile tile flooring, extensive custom hanging, shoe and drawer storage as well as a central island with a glass display for jewellery and accessories. The 5-piece private ensuite features heated tile floors, an extended vanity with dual undermount sinks and a built-in makeup desk, a freestanding soaker tub with a chandelier above, and a HUGE walk-in shower with a glass wall, full-height tile and dual steamers.

Two additional bedrooms are great for the kids, with plush carpet, custom walk-in closets and access to separate full bathrooms. The first bedroom features a private 3-piece ensuite with tile floors, a floating vanity and a fully-tiled glass shower. This room also features rough-ins for ceiling speakers and a TV. The third bedroom has cheater access to the main 4-piece bathroom which features tile floors, quartz countertops and a tub/shower combo with a full tile surround.

Rounding out the top floor, the spacious laundry room features tile floors, quartz counters, a modern chevron tile backsplash, an undermount sink, and Electrolux steam washer and dryer.

Downstairs, the fully-developed basement features an additional 1,580 square feet of upgraded living space with radiant-in floor heat and plush carpet throughout. The open-concept rec room/bar area features a built-in media unit with a custom TV panel and a sound system. Adjacent to the seating area, the wet bar features tile flooring, granite countertops, an undermount sink and ceiling-height cabinetry with recessed lighting and built-in wine storage. This space has both a glass front beverage fridge and an oversized wine cooler.

For movie night, a dedicated theatre room is located around the corner and features a built-in media unit, rough-ins for a projector/screen and surround sound.

For those who love to workout at home, the fully-loaded fitness studio features a full glass wall with a modern sliding door, rubber sports flooring and full-height mirrors.

Conveniently, the lower level features two additional bathrooms for both private and everyday use. Ideal for overnight guests, the generous fourth bedroom has a private 3-piece ensuite with tile floors and a glass shower and for everyday use, this level also features an additional 2-piece powder room.

Unlike most basements, this one features an open-to-above stairway with a large window wall and tons of natural light. There is plenty of space at the bottom of the stairs for an additional workspace or small reading nook. Plenty of storage can be found under the stairs, accessible from the oversized mechanical room.

Outside, the fully-fenced backyard is accessible via the mudroom and features an exposed aggregate concrete patio that spans the entire width of the home, as well as ample greenspace for kids and pets to play. The area has tons of space for an outdoor patio set and is roughed-in for future outdoor speakers as well. The triple detached garage is fully-insulated, drywalled and painted and has access to the backyard via two man doors on either side.

This home features built-in ceiling speakers throughout that connect to a smart home automation system. Mechanical highlights include a 110-gallon hot water tank, radiant in-floor heat in the basement with an upgraded boiler system, two high-efficiency furnaces, and roughed-in central A/C and central vac. Lastly, this home features several areas with custom LED feature lighting with programmable/remote controlled colour display.

West Hillhurst is one of Calgary’s most coveted inner-city communities and home to a number of luxury estate homes and infills. Located close to many schools, parks and playgrounds it is also just a short walk or bike ride to all that Kensington has to offer. With quick access to Crowchild Trail, Memorial Drive and 16^th Avenue, commuting to Downtown and around the city is a breeze.
