1108, 151 Country Village Road NE, Calgary

Downsizing doesn't have to mean giving up your outdoor space, your garden, your view, or the feeling of living in a real home. Welcome to 1108, 151 Country Village Rd NE – a one-of-a-kind corner unit in the heart of Country Hills, west of Deerfoot Trail, with over 1,000 sq ft of private outdoor living space. There is NOTHING else like it in the building. Backing southwest onto Country Hills Village Pond, this home is all about the view. Picture garden parties overlooking the pond and fountain, gorgeous in every season, while you soak up Calgary's 333 days of sun. From the living room you can't see another unit – just you, the sun and the water. Top-down/bottom-up blinds control the light, Phantom Screens on all THREE exterior doors bring in summer breezes without bugs, and ceiling fans plus air conditioning keep you comfortable. This may be the easiest move you ever make. Beside a guest suite, this unit offers the most privacy in the building, endless storage and TWO UNDERGROUND TITLED PARKING STALLS. The large entry has a closet and room for a bench. Custom built-ins run through the living room, dining room, kitchen, laundry room AND both bedrooms, with lit niches for your favourite collectibles. The kitchen has a fantastic layout with quartz counters, soft-close doors and SO many drawers, pantry cabinets, under-cabinet lighting and a wraparound eating bar for hosting the holidays or a casual get-together. Kitchen and bathroom cabinets and quartz tops were replaced in 2014. Both bedrooms are VERY large and easily fit a king bed – YOU choose your primary bedroom! One offers a clever roll-out table, extra closets and organized wardrobe cabinets, plus a built-in to hide TV cables. The second bedroom's ensuite features a jetted tub for the tub lovers, a linen closet and full-height cabinet for extra storage.
