There are houses and then there are homes.And then, there is this home.We want you to know how uniquely special this home is—lovingly cared for, lived in, cozy, and as the Dutch like to say…gezellig. It's a home the current owners want to pass to the next owners to love and cherish.Now, let's get the house details out of the way. Situated in the heart of Varsity, 0.5 km from Market Mall and three schools, it is ideal for a growing family. It’s 1.5 km from UCalgary and Bowmont Park is just around the corner. If you can think of a better location in Calgary, we’d like to know.Photos of this home do not do it justice. The front is deceptively small because once you enter, it is expansive and engaging, with light filtering in from multiple directions. The sun fills a massive solarium with light from 2 - 6 pm. If you love plants, this is where your green thumb can thrive.Arguably, the pièce de résistance is the backyard. It is a stunning landscape of colour—flowers and trees cultivated over decades. A grand crabapple tree throws millions of pink petals over the garden every May. Peonies, tulips, roses, bearded irises, bluebonnets, daisies, a giant purple clematis, Maltese crosses, German irises, borages, delphiniums, bachelors buttons, and hydrangeas sprinkle themselves over a vast homemade botanical garden. A deck with a pergola and a fire pit complements the entire yard for hours of backyard entertainment.If you are worried about the neighbours, don’t. You will be surrounded by three lovely couples (yes, they are quiet).We know this home will go fast—but more importantly, we want it to go to the right buyer—someone who will act as its next caretaker. Reach out today to learn more and discover how this special home can be yours. (id:51532)
