Built in 2008, it offers an outdoorsy, yet urban lifestyle so many buyers are chasing: morning walks along the Bow River, coffee in Kensington, and a peaceful retreat to come home to. Just steps from the Bow River Pathway, you’re surrounded by parks, green space, and mature trees, yet minutes to downtown Calgary, and the Kensington Shopping District, and quick connections via Crowchild Trail / 16th Avenue (Highway 1) for easy commuting. Quick access to the Rocky Mountains, playgrounds, a baseball diamond, dog parks and grocery amenities such as Safeway and FreshCo are a bonus (Sunterra just a 1 min walk away)! Inside, the home unfolds with warmth, intention and function. The main floor offers a dedicated office, ideal for remote work or focused study – while the living room centers around a cozy fireplace framed by two oversized windows that flood the space with natural light. A quartz countertop island anchors the L-shaped kitchen (with a pantry), offering both durability and function, perfect for everyday living and entertaining alike. Upstairs, three well-appointed bedrooms create separation and privacy, complemented by a functional and inviting primary retreat. The primary features vaulted ceilings, a quaint balcony, and large windows letting the sun fill the room. Two other bedrooms and a main bathroom complete the second floor. The fully developed basement expands your options with a fourth bedroom, full bathroom, and a generous recreation area – ideal for movie nights, a home gym, or space for growing families. Out back, a brand-new oversized composite deck creates a seamless extension of your living space. Designed to minimize yard maintenance while still offering raised garden boxes for those with a green thumb. A double detached garage with back lane access completes the package.

This home captures all of it, book your showing today for a move-in ready home!

Update on Rezoning Reversal

Well, it's now March and spring is right around the corner! 

I received a notice much like everyone else did in the mail, regarding the City of Calgary's proposed rezoning reversal, and thought I'd provide my own thoughts on this. 

Since going to town council to vote, the current stage now is that a public hearing will be held, which will be to consider a bylaw that would bring back low density residential zones that existed prior to the land use bylaw approved May 2024 (effectively making every single family home lot an R-CG designation from R-C1 / R-C2).

There are a few exceptions (properties that would NOT see a reversal):

- Properties that have received approval for development permit / building permit or subdivision application under R-CG / R-G / H-GO

- Submitted a development permit / building permit or subdivision application before the FIRST reading of the propose new bylaw

- Properties that have already been rezoned

Effectively, grand-fathering all properties that are currently in-the-works at the city (via DP / BP or SA), and those that are already completed. 

The public hearing will be held on MARCH 23, 2026 @ 9:30 AM hosted at the Council Chamber (800 McLeod Trail SE).

I encourage those who have interest to participate. This largely defines how the city will feel, look, and live over the next decade, given the changes that have already happened, as I'm sure most of you who have already noticed. 

Politics aside, what really matters to me is how this really changes the market dynamics in our city. Recall the discussion with CREB Economist Ann-Marie, >50% of new-build high-density developments (apartments / townhomes) are earmarked for rental-only, largely increasing the rental supply in the city with rents coming down as a result. The bulk of the price declines have been in the high-density sector as well which we've seen since last year as a dramatic change in trend.

Those considering purchasing homes are much more careful of property location, neighbouring properties, and zoning in the area. Likewise, on the seller side, being mindful of location / neighbours / zoning are critical to price the property appropriately to reach the right audience.
