This home is beautiful, but the first thing you will see when you walk through the door is the stunning backdrop of lakefront. It pulls you like a magnet, such a special opportunity to own waterfront property in Calgary. The back yard enjoys a West exposure so evenings will be spent watching sunsets, maybe beside a campfire watching the fish jump. This family oriented 2 storey is actually hiding a bungalow inside - the primary bedroom and everything you need for a life long dream home is in reach on the main level. Even Air Conditioning. Enter to an open concept great room with adjoining office. The gourmet kitchen has been extensively renovated and features the highest end stainless steel appliances - Subzero Fridge, Wolf Gas Stove, Wolf Wall Oven, Wolf Microwave. Stone countertops and white cabinets give the kitchen a fresh modern feel. The kitchen island is ideal for hosting parties and is even equipped with a wine fridge. The main floor living room offers the warmth of a gas fireplace and is framed by picture windows overlooking the lake. The primary bedroom also shares a view of the water and offers a private retreat, outfitted with a spectacular ensuite and custom walk in closet and enormous steam shower. Upstairs is a haven for the kids - 2 bedrooms with a shared jack and Jill bathroom, and a bonus room hideaway to kick back with friends. The basement walks out to the back yard and features an additional 2 bedrooms with a third full bathroom. The main rec space comes with a pool table, wet bar, fireplace and sweeping views of the lake. A theatre room finishes out the space. All together the home offers 5 bedrooms, and 3.5 baths with over 4600 sq ft of developed space. The triple attached garage has an epoxy floor and new garage doors. The exterior has been updated on the front and back with composite shaker siding. The highlight is the back yard with the expansive upper deck featuring glass railings and high end awnings so you can enjoy the outdoors and still escape the sun if you want. The hot tub is a great place to relax or warm up after a winter skate. Be sure to wander out onto the dock - imagine a swim, or fishing in the evening. Really an outstanding property with a smart floor plan.
