Three bedrooms, two full bathrooms, a large private yard — and a lower level that gives you the extra bedroom every family runs out of first.

Welcome to 33, 175 Manora Place NE, in Marlborough Mews, in the heart of Calgary&#39's established Marlborough Park. The main floor opens into a bright, connected living and dining space that flows out toward the yard. Upstairs, three well-sized bedrooms and a full bathroom.

What sets this home apart is the lower level. Instead of one open family room, it is finished as a separate, private room with a door — and its own full bathroom right beside it. A home office that finally has a door. A gym. A studio. A teen&#39's own corner of the house. Whatever your family needs this year, there is a private, finished space with a full bath attached, and that is not something you find in most townhomes at this price.

Outside, the large private yard is the reason a family chooses a townhome over an apartment — room for the kids, the dog and the barbecue, with exterior maintenance, snow removal and waste all handled by the condo corporation.

Everything else is already built. Save-On-Foods and the TransCanada Centre are a walk away for groceries, pharmacy and everyday errands. Chris Akkerman and Cappy Smart schools are within walking distance. Village Square Leisure Centre — pool, arena, gym and library.
