LIVING YOUR BEST LIFE IN LONGVIEW. Whether you are looking at downsizing on one level living or just want to raise your family in a small-town setting then you have just found your new home! Quiet living, friendly community where kids can walk to school and steps to all nature… all this and a beautiful home. This 5 bedroom 2 bath renovated and updated bungalow offers just under 2500 sf of total living space. This home faces out with breathtaking views of the rolling foothills and peek at the mountains. It sits on a huge lot backing on to greenspace and park so no neighbours behind you! The oversized garage is a dream, drywalled, heated and enough space to park your truck, car and more. The exterior is done in an Acrylic Stucco with newer roof on both house and garage. As you enter into the home and you will be wowed with the custom wall panels, new paint, window coverings and that is just the start. With 1274 sf this home gives you space galore on the main level. Living room is flooded with sunlight giving you that natural beauty with again a view of the foothills…what more can you ask for. Electric fireplace with a mantle adds extra coziness to the living room. The dining room is big enough for those family gatherings for not only those special holidays but day to day living. The kitchen offers a ton of storage space, counter space, stainless steel appliances, double french door fridge with water and ice, dishwasher & counter microwave. The kitchen overlooks the fully fenced back yard so keeping an eye on the kids is a breeze. Separate entrance from the backyard brings you into the kitchen or goes down to the basement. This lends itself to the perfect roommate situation as well. The primary bedroom is a good size with enough room for a king size bed. The other 2 bedrooms are large as well and both overlook the foothills with one bedroom giving you a sneek peek of the mountains. Full main bathroom offers double sinks, nice big soaker tub and new toilet with a heated seat! The basement has 9’ ceilings, 2 more huge bedrooms, full bathroom and a massive rec room. Around the corner is a separate area that is currently used as a gym. Large windows bring in tons of natural light. The laundry room has newer washer & dryer and more storage than you would need. The ideas are boundless for this lower level. Outside, the newly stained deck is great for BBQ or just relaxing. The 24x25 garage is massive with a gravel RV parking pad (currently sellers have Boat & RV parked and still space) & a fully fenced yard for the kids to roam around in. But right behind you is the park where you not only have kids play structures but outdoor fitness equipment as well. Longview sits along Cowboy Trail (Highway 22), a gateway to Kananaskis and is one of the most scenic stretches of road in all of Alberta. Only 10 minutes to Diamond Valley for all amenities (hospital, shopping, restaurants) and still more to come. (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).
Pick a down payment and tap any underlined number to edit. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Monthly carrying costs (shared)
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. Accelerated bi-weekly frequency reduces total interest paid vs. monthly — confirm with a broker. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy. Always validate with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
