Perched in one of Discovery Ridge's most sought-after positions with sunny southern exposure, valley views, and Rocky Mountain outlooks, 159 Discovery Ridge Way SW offers over 3,650 sq. ft. of developed space across three levels, just steps from the community park and moments from the natural pathways of Griffith Woods. This is the kind of address that rewards you every single day, with a setting, a streetscape, and a connection to nature that genuinely sets Discovery Ridge apart from every other west-side community in Calgary. Warm, bright, and thoughtfully designed, the main floor opens with 9' ceilings and a striking sloped entry ceiling that sets an immediate architectural tone, flowing into a spacious great room and a sunny breakfast nook that draws natural light deep into the home throughout the day, creating a main level that feels both expansive and genuinely livable. The refreshed kitchen delivers style and everyday function in equal measure, with updated quartz countertops that seamlessly complement spacious cabinetry, a large central island, walk-through pantry, secondary side pantry, dedicated coffee bar station, drinking water filter, stainless steel appliances, and a beautifully tiled surround framing the Fotile range hood. Upstairs, rich millwork, crown moulding, and substantial door casings signal the level of craftsmanship carried through the home, while the primary retreat serves as a true sanctuary, capturing sweeping mountain and valley outlooks through generous windows and offering a spa-calibre 5-piece ensuite with dual sinks, a jetted soaker tub, and glass-block shower enclosure. Two additional bedrooms, a 4-piece bathroom, and a large sunken bonus room round out the upper level with the flexible layout a growing family needs, whether that means movie nights, a music room, a home office, or open play space. The professionally finished walkout level adds meaningful square footage with a fourth bedroom, full 4-piece bathroom, and a large recreat ion area that opens directly to the south-facing backyard, making it equally well-suited for hosting guests, accommodating older children, or creating a dedicated fitness or games space. Outdoor living is equally considered, with an elevated rear deck that overlooks mature trees and a sun-drenched yard that connects seamlessly from the walkout below, extending the living space into a private, green setting that feels worlds away from the city. Recent updates include a Whirlpool fridge, Frigidaire electric range, Bosch dishwasher, Samsung washer and dryer, water softener, and a full interior repaint, providing comfort and peace of mind from day one. Discovery Ridge is one of Calgary's most treasured west-side communities for good reason, and this home captures everything that makes it special: the views, the pathways, the proximity to Griffith Woods, and the quiet sense that you have found exactly the right place.

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Rough ballpark only. Pick a down-payment option, then tap any underlined number below to plug in your real numbers — tax, condo fee, insurance, utilities. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Cost lines (tax, condo, insurance, utilities) are editable inline above. These two control the mortgage payment math.
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy — confirm with a property manager. Always validate your scenario with a mortgage broker and your insurance provider before writing an offer.
