This large and unique home in coveted University Heights has all the great, functional spaces required to provide the room to grow and flexibility a hard-working family needs to thrive. The spacious main floor opens to a charming living room on one side and a cozy family room with a wood-burning fireplace on the other. The large, eat-in kitchen features updated cabinets, a central island, and a breakfast nook that looks out over the beautiful and private backyard and generous deck. Completing the main floor is a huge office/study which could also double as a guest or fifth bedroom and a full bathroom. The classic hardwood throughout the entire main floor continues through most of a second storey that features a principal bedroom with a large, walk-in closet. Three additional bright and spacious bedrooms, and a lovely, updated full bathroom with heated floors round out the top floor. The basement sports a large games room as well as a separate media room with a gas fireplace. Most of the windows have been replaced and a heated, double attached garage completes this outstanding property. Located on a quiet street, this move-in ready home is within easy walking distance of the community’s two exceptional grade schools, the University of Calgary, Foothills & Children’s Hospitals, as well as the new Calgary Cancer Centre. Making this great neighbourhood even better you are just a quick jaunt away from the new University District with its shopping, restaurants and amenities, and you can make an easy escape to the mountains!
