The opportunities to get into THIS area of our city, at this price point are VERY RARE... This complex is one of the newest you’ll find in the area… it was built back in 2015, and this particular unit has NEVER been on the market!!! Welcome to Unit 120, upon entering you see beautiful white walls, a BIG window letting the light shine, ceiling height, semi-gloss kitchen cabinetry that's on-trend and easy to clean, with a sleek backsplash, modern lighting throughout; granite countertops with an extended WATERFALL island (a rare and expensive feature you won’t find in most buildings), and stainless steel appliances… The open floor plan leaves enough space for a dining table, with more seating than you’ll probably need, and a large living room that will allow you to KEEP your couches and play around with décor - SO FUN! Not to mention, your new apartment has views of the Aspen Grove Ravine, where you’ll enjoy walking, jogging or biking the paths in the summer... Right now, the views are crip and snowy but imagine the green trees in the summer, and beautiful leaves in the fall, leaving you with spectacular year-round views that will make your space feel like a SANCTUARY… This unit is a retreat away from the hustle and bustle of our city where you can truly relax, without being too far. Right before you step into your master bedroom, you have a built-in console table, perfect for that work-from-home set-up, a place to put your keys, or even get ready each day… and head into your master bedroom that can comfortably fit a queen bed with nightstands on each side, you also have a walk-through closet with custom CALIFORNIA built-ins and laminate flooring with in-floor heating throughout. But wait, there’s more… How about this bathroom? With a deep soaker tub and the same upgraded finishings throughout… Last but not least, you have in-suite laundry, a linen closet, coat closet and, all in a well-managed, pet-friendly - boutique building - with LOW CONDO FEES of $360/ monthly, heated underground parking, your titled stall is #127, a fitness studio, bike storage, secured storage locker #14, guest suites, and TONS of visitor parking… So there you have it! An amazing unit, in an amazing location with so much VALUE… if you’re familiar with this area, you know how convenient this location really is…I mean you’ve got quick access to downtown, 17th Ave, 5-minutes to Stoney trail, 69th Street LRT train station, close to Mount Royal University, and not too far of a drive to U of C, AND you’re close to Rockyview Hospital and the Children's hospital… And, the mountains are a short drive away! This apartment could be perfect for SO many people - don’t waste time and book your showing today. PS. don't forget to CHECK OUT THE VIDEO!
