Welcome to The Vale, an architectural masterpiece by the renowned McKinley Masters. This one-owner, former show home represents a pinnacle of elegance, privacy, and superior craftsmanship. Situated within the prestigious Silverhorn community, the estate offers a perfect harmony of high-tech modern amenities and the tranquil beauty of Bearspaw’s rolling hills. From the moment you approach the elegant board-and-batten exterior—highlighted by full-bed sandstone, triple-glazed windows, and cedar garage doors—it is clear that every detail has been meticulously curated for the discerning homeowner. The grand entrance sets a tone of opulence, featuring a handcrafted front door with a forged iron canopy that opens into a foyer graced by a custom solid oak armoire. You are immediately captivated by the home's crown jewel: an award-winning circular staircase with bespoke iron railings. The main floor flows effortlessly through an open-concept layout, where custom herringbone wood floors lead you to a Great Room anchored by a marble feature wall and a built-in gas fireplace. Large windows throughout the level ensure that the breathtaking views of the surrounding treed areas and hills are always the centerpiece of your living space. For the culinary enthusiast, the kitchen is a dream come true. It artfully blends traditional and modern finishes, featuring an oversized marble waterfall island and a secondary prep station that subtly defines the space. This kitchen is designed for both high-end catering and intimate family breakfasts. The adjacent formal dining room provides a sophisticated atmosphere for hosting, while the nearby powder room exudes warmth with its custom floating vanity and wood-paneled walls. The upper level is a sanctuary of comfort, characterized by barrel ceilings, accent lighting, and custom iron chandeliers. The master retreat is a true "spa-at-home" experience, featuring floor-to-ceiling windows, a cozy sitting area, and a pop-up TV. The ensuite melts awa y the stress of the day with heated floors and a cedar-clad walk-in closet. This level also includes three additional bedrooms with walk in closets and a family sized laundry room. Steps away the oversized main bathroom is a standout feature in itself, boasting double floating vanities and an impressive private custom shower area. The walk-out basement is a bright and cheerful entertainment hub, complete with a custom bar and a media area with barn board detailing. Even the functional spaces of this home are extraordinary; the mechanical room is a masterpiece of engineering, connected by a private staircase to an oversized garage. This garage is unlike any other, featuring epoxy-coated heated floors, ample built-in cabinetry, and designer accents. Life in Silverhorn offers a unique blend of nature and technology. With 50% of the surrounding landscape protected, you can enjoy the serenity of untouched beauty just minutes from Calgary. (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.
