Backing directly onto green space and pathway systems with quick access to Fish Creek Provincial Park, this fully finished 2 storey home offers the kind of location that’s hard to beat in Cranston. Surrounded by mature trees and located close to schools, parks, shopping, and major roads, this is the type of property families wait for. Offering over 2,780 sq.ft. of developed living space with 4 bedrooms and 3.5 bathrooms, there’s plenty of room here to grow. The main floor has a warm, comfortable feel with rich hardwood flooring, 9’ ceilings, oversized windows, and beautiful natural light throughout the day. The feature stone fireplace creates a cozy focal point in the living room, while the open-concept layout makes living and keeping an eye on your loved ones, a breeze. The spacious kitchen offers durable granite countertops, maple cabinetry, stainless steel appliances including a gas range, a huge corner pantry, and a large island that naturally becomes the gathering place when hosting. The dining area overlooks the west facing private backyard and opens onto the large deck, a great setup for summer BBQs, relaxing evenings, or watching the kids play. Central A/C keeps the home comfortable all summer long. You’ll also find a versatile front office/den, convenient main floor laundry, and a practical mudroom setup off the double attached garage. Upstairs, the bonus room is truly a standout space with oversized windows and French doors leading to the cute covered upper porch, a unique feature that adds so much character and curb appeal. The primary bedroom easily accommodates a full king-sized setup and includes a walk-in closet plus a spacious 5-piece ensuite with dual sinks, a deep soaker tub, and separate shower. Two additional bedrooms and another full bathroom complete the upper level. The professionally finished basement adds even more functional living space with a large family room, recreation/games area, fourth bedroom, full bathroom, and extra storage space. Homes backing onto green space are a rarity. This is a great opportunity to get into one of southeast Calgary’s most sought-after family communities! (id:65958)

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.
