About this property

Tucked away on one of Calgary’s most coveted riverfront streets, this exceptional Elbow Park residence offers a rare opportunity to own a fully renovated, move-in ready home on an extraordinary 54’ x 187’ lot backing directly onto the Elbow River. Located in the heart of one of Calgary’s most cherished inner-city communities, this property captures the perfect balance of luxury, lifestyle, and connection to nature. Life in Elbow Park is about more than just a beautiful home — it’s about community.

Surrounded by winding pathway systems, mature trees, parks, and river views, this is a neighbourhood where families put down roots for generations. Perfectly positioned between Sandy Beach and Stanley Park, outdoor living becomes part of your everyday routine — morning walks along the river, summer afternoons at the parks, and easy access to Calgary’s extensive pathway network right from your backyard. The expansive backyard is truly a rare inner-city retreat — offering incredible space for children to run and play while creating the ultimate setting for entertaining and gathering. Designed for both relaxation and connection, the outdoor living experience features a beautifully appointed outdoor kitchen, sprawling yard space, and a fire pit nestled down by the river’s edge where friends and family can gather year-round under the canopy of mature trees. Whether hosting summer dinners, watching kids explore the backyard, or enjoying quiet evenings by the fire, this property was designed to be lived in and loved. Inside, the home has been thoughtfully and extensively renovated, blending timeless design with modern functionality. Move-in ready and beautifully appointed throughout, this property offers the rare combination of sophisticated inner-city living with the warmth and charm of a truly neighbourly community.
