Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac on an oversized 8,600 sq. ft. lot, this thoughtfully maintained Ranchlands bungalow offers a lifestyle that's hard to find in northwest Calgary, especially for growing families looking for space, convenience, and room to truly live.At first glance, the massive front driveway immediately sets this property apart. With parking for 5–6 vehicles, space for an RV, and an expansive paved area that has become a safe, secluded place for kids to ride bikes, rollerblade, skateboard, and play basketball away from busy residential streets, this home reimagines what family-friendly outdoor space can look like. The sellers shared that their children learned to ride their bikes here, and over 25 years they've loved the quiet sense of privacy, security, and separation from traffic that this tucked-away location provides.Inside, the home feels warm, functional, and inviting. The bright front living room is filled with natural light from the oversized picture window and anchored by a charming fireplace with brick surround, creating a comfortable gathering space for everyday living or family movie nights. The adjoining dining area flows easily into the spacious kitchen, while the flexible layout offers excellent versatility for changing family needs.The fully renovated basement adds excellent additional living space, including a huge recreation/media area, an expansive primary bedroom retreat with walk-in closet, and excellent storage throughout. Large egress windows and updated finishes make the lower level feel bright, comfortable, and highly functional for families, teenagers, guests, or multigenerational living.Outside, the backyard has been intentionally designed as a private, low-maintenance retreat. The thoughtful retaining wall, pergola-covered deck, mature trees, and fenced setting create a wonderfully secluded atmosphere, ideal for relaxing summer evenings, BBQs, or simply enjoying the outdoors without spending every weekend maintaining a large yard.Additional highlights include triple-pane sound-reducing windows, a heated and insulated double garage, updated roof shingles (2020), fresh paint, and incredible utility and storage spaces throughout the home.And then there's the location.
