This exceptional 4-level split offers an impressive 2,761 sqft of developed living space paired with an outdoor experience that is becoming increasingly difficult to find in Calgary’s established communities.From the moment you arrive, there is a sense that this property has been cared for differently. The mature, professionally inspired landscape design creates a private backyard retreat that feels more like a botanical garden than a suburban lot, featuring extensive stone patios and walkways, layered perennial gardens, towering mature trees, sculpted planting beds, two custom wooden arbors, and numerous spaces to gather, unwind, entertain, or simply enjoy the changing seasons. Supported by a professionally installed and annually maintained irrigation system, every element reflects years of passion and attention to detail.Inside, the home delivers the space and flexibility today’s families are searching for. Expanded on the main floor by previous owners, the layout offers large principal rooms, 3 bedrooms above grade, and a versatile lower-level bonus room that could easily function as a 4th bedroom, teen retreat, home office, or guest space.The renovated kitchen serves as the heart of the home with an oversized island, granite countertops, and an impressive lineup of recently replaced appliances including the refrigerator, dishwasher, wall oven, and in the basement level laundry room, a washer and dryer set… all of which have been updated within the last two years. The laundry room deep freeze is also included.Other recent interior updates include hardwood flooring, new carpets, updated living room window treatments, and custom-built display nooks with granite tops that add warmth, function, and character. With 3½ bathrooms including two upper-level ensuites, everyday family life becomes remarkably practical. Gather in the lower family room on those chilly winter days around the wood-burning fireplace (WETT inspected). A large crawl-space storage keeps seasona l living organized.Major exterior improvements provide long-term confidence with upgraded hail-wind-resistant shingles, including new eavestroughs and downspouts, oversized concrete basement window wells, and a professionally installed security system with purchased equipment included. The front attached double garage and generous driveway complete the package.And then there is Oakridge. Families are drawn here for reasons that have endured for generations; excellent public and separate schools, mature streetscapes, and direct access to explore some of Calgary’s best local outdoor and indoor recreation facilities, including walking/biking the interconnected city pathways through South and North Glenmore Parks, Heritage Park, and Fish Creek Park… cross-country skiing and skating in winter, the pump track, sailing, kids spray park, tennis/pickleball, numerous community playgrounds, community gardens, a very active Oakridge Community Centre… countless indoor/outdoor moments that make family life memorable.

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.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
