NEW LISTING: 8504 85 Avenue NW in Edmonton

I have listed a new property at 8504 85 Avenue NW in Edmonton. See details here

Rare opportunity in one of Edmonton's most sought-after mature neighbourhoods. This 7,552 sq ft pie-shaped lot in the heart of Bonnie Doon sits on a quiet cul-de-sac with back lane access. Asbestos remediated, and build-ready. No demo. No unknowns. Measuring 38 ft along the cul-de-sac, 100 ft across the rear, with sides running 104 ft and 134 ft, the pie shape widens generously toward the back, delivering exceptional build depth and rear yard flexibility. RS Zoning: this lot qualifies for up to 8 units, row housing, multiplex, infill, or a custom single-family home with suite. The back lane supports a garage suite or secondary access, adding even more development optionality. Steps from the Valley Line LRT, Faculty Saint-Jean, Mill Creek Ravine trails, Whyte Avenue, and the University of Alberta. Perfect for a developer ready to break ground, an investor looking for your next project, or a buyer dreaming of building something truly custom on a large lot in an established central neighbourhood.

Why Bonnie Doon Is Edmonton's Most Exciting Place to Build Right Now

From lifestyle destination to development hotspot — inside Edmonton's most sought-after mature neighbourhood and the rare land opportunity that just hit the market.

If you've been watching Edmonton real estate, you already know Bonnie Doon.

If you haven't — consider this your introduction.

Tucked into the mature heart of the city's east side, Bonnie Doon has quietly become one of Edmonton's most compelling addresses. For homebuyers chasing character and community. For investors drawn to strong fundamentals. For developers who understand that the best land doesn't stay available for long.

This neighbourhood doesn't require compromise. And right now, there's a rare opportunity sitting on a quiet cul-de-sac that every builder, investor, and developer in Edmonton should know about.

View 8504 85 Ave 

The Bonnie Doon Lifestyle: Why People Choose to Stay

Bonnie Doon isn't just a neighbourhood — it's a lifestyle. Tree-lined streets, original character homes, and a genuine sense of community sit alongside the kind of urban convenience that newer suburban developments spend decades trying to replicate.

Walk out your front door and within minutes you're at:

  • The Valley Line LRT — direct downtown access without a car

  • Mill Creek Ravine — one of Edmonton's most beloved trail systems for walking, running, and cycling

  • Faculty Saint-Jean (University of Alberta) — academic energy and international community

  • Whyte Avenue — Edmonton's most vibrant strip of restaurants, cafés, boutiques, and nightlife

  • The North Saskatchewan River Valley — the longest urban parkland system in North America

  • Top-rated schools, community leagues, and local parks

This is a neighbourhood where people put down roots. Where the community league is thriving, the streets are safe, and the maturity of the tree canopy tells you everything about how long people have chosen to stay. New builds in Bonnie Doon don't sit on the market — they sell to buyers who've been waiting for exactly this.

Edmonton's Zoning Revolution: What RS Zoning Really Means for Builders

In January 2024, the City of Edmonton changed the game for residential development. The old patchwork of RF1, RF2, RF3, and RF4 zones was consolidated into a single, flexible designation: RS — Small Scale Residential.

What does that mean in plain language? On a lot over 600 square metres, you can build up to 8 units — without rezoning, without a lengthy approval process, and without the uncertainty that used to make infill development in Edmonton such a gamble.

For builders and developers who've been waiting for the right opportunity in a mature Edmonton neighbourhood, the combination of RS zoning and a large, clean lot in Bonnie Doon is exactly what the new bylaw was designed to unlock.

RS Zoning at a Glance

  • Up to 8 units on lots 600+ sqm — no rezoning required
  • Up to 3 storeys
  • All residential forms permitted: row housing, multiplex, infill, secondary suites
  • Back lane access enables garage suite or garden suite
  • Effective January 2024 — Edmonton's most builder-friendly zoning in decades

The Numbers Don't Lie: Bonnie Doon's Real Estate Market

Bonnie Doon's average sale price grew from $544,117 in 2022 to $708,970 in 2025 — a 30.3% increase in three years. In a market where every dollar of land value matters, that kind of trajectory tells a clear story.

The 2026 YTD average has moderated to $595,214, which experienced buyers and developers will recognize for what it is: a window. Prices in established Edmonton neighbourhoods with strong fundamentals don't stay moderated for long. The underlying demand, driven by LRT access, university proximity, and a finite supply of mature lots, hasn't changed.

For anyone watching Edmonton real estate seriously, this is the moment to act.

8504 85 Avenue: A Rare Vacant Lot in the Heart of Bonnie Doon

Listed at $499,900.

Vacant, remediated, build-ready lots in Bonnie Doon don't come up often. When they do, the builders who move quickly are the ones who win.

This 7,552 sq ft pie-shaped lot sits on a quiet cul-de-sac with back lane access. Asbestos remediated, flat site, and build-ready. No demo. No environmental unknowns. No timeline risk. You go straight from purchase to permit.

The lot dimensions:

  • 38 ft along the cul-de-sac

  • 100 ft across the rear

  • Sides running 104 ft and 134 ft

The pie shape widens generously toward the back, delivering exceptional build depth and rear yard flexibility that a standard rectangular lot simply can't match.

Zoned RS, this lot qualifies for up to 8 units with no rezoning required. The back lane supports a garage suite or garden suite, adding even more development optionality.

For the custom home builder: it's a blank canvas in an established neighbourhood with unbeatable walkability and a community that buyers compete to live in.

For the developer: it's 8-unit potential on a clean, remediated lot with no surprises. Bonnie Doon end product sells. Full stop.

For the investor: it's a land hold in a neighbourhood with a proven 30% appreciation curve, steps from the LRT, the university, and the river valley.

The hard work is done. The lot is clean, the zoning is strong, and Bonnie Doon speaks for itself.

Building in Bonnie Doon: What You Need to Know

Edmonton's infill market has matured significantly. Builders operating in Bonnie Doon benefit from a neighbourhood that is well-established, well-connected, and actively embracing thoughtful redevelopment.

The July 2025 RS zoning amendments introduced stronger facade articulation requirements and building length limits — changes that improve build quality and protect resale value for everything in the neighbourhood. Good design requirements are good for everyone, especially developers building to sell.

The back lane on this lot opens up additional optionality: a garage suite, secondary access, or garden suite configuration that adds income potential without compromising the primary build. In Bonnie Doon, that kind of flexibility is worth real money.

How This Edmonton Home Sold Unconditionally in Three Days

Most homes don't fail because of the market. They fail because of the plan.

The difference between a home that sells in three days and one that sits for three months has nothing to do with the house itself. It has everything to do with the thinking that happened before it ever went live. I see it play out across Edmonton constantly — in Crestwood, in Parkview, in Glenora, in Westmount — at every price point.

9503 142 Street is a good example of what I mean.


Selling a Home in Edmonton Starts With Knowing It Deeply

Before I recommend a price, brief a photographer, or move a single piece of furniture, I walk through a home and learn it. I notice what stops you. What makes you slow down. What you reach out and touch. What you open. What you feel before you've consciously decided anything.

Then I build the entire strategy around those moments.

For 9503 142 Street — a 2023-built home in Crestwood with a dark marble gas fireplace, fluted wood doors, light oak floors, a bonus room, and the only attached double garage in the active Edmonton market — I knew exactly which features would make the right buyer fall in love. My job was to make sure they discovered those features in the right order, at the right moment, in the right light.

I told the sellers to close every fluted door before each showing. Not to tidy up. Because I wanted buyers to have to open them. To touch them. To discover what was on the other side. That moment of discovery is not an accident — it's choreography.


Edmonton Home Staging: Where the Sale Is Won

Buyers decide in the first five seconds inside a home. That moment is created deliberately, or it isn't created at all.

I staged this home using the sellers' existing furniture, brought in additional pieces, art, and decor, and made deliberate decisions room by room. I painted two walls — not as a decorating choice, but because new construction listings in Edmonton all look the same. Bright, white, empty. This home needed to stop the scroll the moment the first photo loaded, and it did.

Every light was on. Every window covering was positioned exactly as I specified. Every toilet seat was down. These are not details. They are the difference between a buyer who feels something and one who doesn't.


Strategic Pricing for the Edmonton Market

This home had history. It had been listed before, at a lower price, and hadn't sold. For some, that history becomes a reason to be cautious. To underprice. To apologize for the location in the listing notes.

The pricing strategy was built on a full competitive analysis of every relevant sale and every active listing in Crestwood, Parkview, and Laurier Heights. I needed to know what Edmonton buyers had actually paid, what argument a buyer's agent would make across the table, and how to hold the line when they made it.

We listed at $1,274,500. Above the previous list price. Above the active competition on the same street. Because the work had been done.


Marketing That Reaches the Right Edmonton Buyer

Magazine-quality photography. A cinematic video. Drone footage that told the story of the community. Paid social campaigns targeting local Edmonton professionals and buyers relocating from BC and Ontario — a growing segment who see Edmonton real estate as exceptional value and move quickly when the right home appears. A coming-soon campaign before we went live. A dedicated landing page. A lifestyle blog feature. Professional measurements. An open house on launch weekend that was packed.

Every element was built for the specific buyer I had already identified — before a single photo was taken.


The Result We Planned For

Unconditional offer. Opening weekend.


What This Means If You're Selling Your Home in Edmonton

I work this way with every listing, in every Edmonton neighbourhood, at every price point. The preparation, the choreography, the marketing — none of it scales down based on price. A buyer walking into a home in Laurier Heights or Westmount or Rio Terrace deserves the same five seconds of certainty as a buyer in a $1.4M Crestwood infill.

If you are thinking about selling, the question is not what your home is worth. It's what your home needs to become — and who needs to feel it.

That's where I start. Every time.

How This Parkview Home Sold Quick

And What Actually Drove the Result

14019 88 Avenue NW | Listed for $1,600,000 | Sold for $1,620,000

That’s the result.

What matters more is how we got there.


Understanding the Property

14019 88 Avenue is not a typical home in Parkview.

It sits on a 12,000 sq ft pie lot on the Valleyview side, offers over 4,000 sq ft of developed living space, and includes a level of garage capacity that is rarely seen in central Edmonton.

Before anything else, we took the time to understand exactly what it was, who it would appeal to, and how it would be compared in the market.

That becomes the foundation for everything that follows.


Preparing the Home for Launch

Before a home hits the market, there are two separate processes happening.

One is preparing it for photos.
The other is preparing it for people.

They are not the same.

For photos, I’m focused on how the home reads through a lens. Buyers are seeing it first online, so every angle matters. We adjust furniture, remove visual distractions, and make decisions based on how each space will translate in a photo.

I’m looking at sight lines, depth, light, and how the eye moves through each image. What feels natural in person doesn’t always work in photos, so we refine until it does.

Once photography is complete, the focus shifts.

Now it’s about how the home feels in person.

We pay attention to temperature, lighting, scent, sound, and how each space transitions. Doors open or closed. Lights on or off. Curtains positioned intentionally.

Texture matters. Small details matter.

The goal is to create an environment where buyers can move through the home without distraction and understand it clearly.


Pricing with Context

We didn’t price this home based on what it “could be worth.”

We priced it based on how buyers are actually making decisions in this segment.

That meant looking at recent sales in Parkview, Crestwood, and Laurier, understanding the influence of location, lot size, and renovation level, and being realistic about how buyers compare options.

The objective was to position the home where buyers could step in confidently, not where they felt resistance.


Building the Marketing Around the Property

Once the positioning is clear, everything else aligns with it.

We measure the home properly.
We build a detailed feature sheet.
We create a dedicated landing page with full information.
We write a long-form blog to give context to both the property and the neighbourhood.

We produce lifestyle video and photography that reflects how the home actually lives, not just how it looks.

Social media is used to introduce the property in stages — highlighting key features like the garage, the lot, and the overall scale — so that interest builds before the home is even available.

At the same time, we engage directly with the local agent community. In neighbourhoods like Parkview, that network matters.

We also incorporate traditional print marketing, because the right buyer isn’t always coming from one channel.

Everything is intentional. Nothing is random.


Showings and Open Houses

Once the home is live, we don’t leave showings to chance.

We schedule them in a way that creates energy and awareness. When buyers know there is activity, it changes how they approach the property.

Open houses are planned, not just held. They’re designed to reflect the property and attract the right type of buyer.

We’re not trying to get as many people through as possible. We’re focused on getting the right people through.


Creating Momentum and a Decision Point

Interest on its own isn’t enough. It needs structure.

We build momentum through the first few days on market, then set a clear timeline for offers.

This gives buyers a framework. They know when decisions are being made, and they can act accordingly.

Without that, interest can fade. With it, buyers engage more directly.


The Result

The home sold in days, with multiple offers, at $1,620,000.

That outcome wasn’t created at the end.

It was created through preparation, positioning, and execution before and during the first few days on market.


What This Means for Sellers

Every home is different, but the process should never be random.

Understanding the property, preparing it properly, positioning it correctly, and bringing it to market with intention is what drives results.

Not assumptions. Not timing. Not luck.


Thinking About Selling?

If you’re considering selling and want a clear, thoughtful approach to how your home is prepared, positioned, and brought to market, I’m always happy to have that conversation.

Coming Soon to Crestwood.

Be honest.

You're not just looking to buy any house in Crestwood.

You're buying where your kids go to school. You're buying who your neighbours are. You're buying how it feels when someone asks where you live. You're buying the version of your life you've been building toward, the one you've earned, and the one you’ve always deserved.

Crestwood Doesn't Wait. And Neither Do Its Buyers.

Crestwood is not a neighbourhood people stumble into. It is a neighbourhood people choose deliberately.

The schools are exceptional. The streets are mature. The neighbours have been there long enough to know each other. The North Saskatchewan River Valley is at your doorstep.

This is the Edmonton address that signals something, and everyone in your world knows exactly what.

You’ve Seen the Alternatives

You want new construction. But you’ve seen what most of it looks like in this neighbourhood.

Narrow lots. Tight bedrooms. Eighteen hundred square feet stretched to justify the price. Detached garages. Finishes that photograph well but feel forgettable in person.

You’ve walked through them. You already know they’re not what you’re looking for.

This Is Not That House.

What’s coming to market in Crestwood this week is not an average infill. It is not a skinny.

It is a full-width home on a pie-shaped lot, which means something rare in this neighbourhood: a backyard that is a proper yard. Usable, functional, and hard to find in new construction.

It has a double attached garage because some things matter in Edmonton. Walking from your car into your kitchen in January is one of them.

Three bedrooms up. One down. Three and a half bathrooms, including an ensuite that removes any doubt.

At 2,433 square feet above grade, this home does what most new construction in Crestwood cannot. It includes a true second-floor bonus room. Room for the kids. Room for the family to retreat. Because this floor plan was designed around how a family actually lives, not around how tightly a builder could fit three bedrooms onto a narrow lot and still call it a family home.

Over 3,300 square feet of finished living space in Crestwood, for under $1.4 million.

Read that again.

The Details That Signal The Difference.

Most homes at this price point rely on finishes.

This home reflects decisions.

It starts at the exterior. Hardie board. Wood. Concrete.
Not stucco. Not standard.
This home is a statement piece.

Step inside.

The space opens immediately. A wide entry. A clear, uninterrupted sightline to the backyard. Light-toned flooring running seamlessly across the entire main level.

Nothing feels tight. Nothing feels compromised.

The fluted wood interior doors are the kind of detail that makes every other door you've ever seen feel unfinished.

The staircase sits exactly where it should. Open risers. Solid wood treads. Black steel horizontal railing. Surrounded by windows that bring natural light into the centre of the home.

It doesn’t compete with the space. It elevates it.

The living room is anchored by a full stone gas fireplace surround. It doesn’t decorate the room. It defines it. Oversized black-framed windows stretch across the back wall, maintaining a constant connection to the yard.

The kitchen is built for people who use their homes, and who entertain in them.

A waterfall island with proper seating.
A range with pot filler.
A walk-in pantry with built-in shelving, integrated lighting, and a wine fridge.

Because a pantry without them is just a closet, and you are not buying a closet.

The mudroom connects directly to the attached garage -- full-height cabinetry, built-in bench seating, storage that was designed around hockey bags and school backpacks and the reality of what a family actually brings through the door every single day.

A laundry room with a sink and storage.

An ensuite with a freestanding tub, walk-in shower, double sinks, and a walk-in closet that resets your standard the moment you see it.

Move In. Just Live.

Most new construction in this city hands you keys and a list.

A deck to build. A yard to landscape. Air conditioning to source, quote, and install during the first summer you were supposed to be enjoying your home. Window coverings to measure and wait on while you live exposed for months. A basement that looks finished on paper but requires another investment to feel complete.

This home is already done.

The landscaping is professionally completed. The composite deck is built. The gas line is in place. The backyard is ready for your first summer, not your third.

Central air conditioning is installed. Custom window coverings are installed throughout.

And the basement is fully finished with a large family room, bedroom and four piece bath. 

No additional expense.

Just move in and live.

This Is What You’ve Been Waiting For

You’ve been watching this market.

You know what’s available.
And you know how rarely a home like this comes along in Crestwood.

The lot. The layout. The square footage. The level of finish.
It almost never aligns like this.

This one does.

And it’s coming to market this week.

You’ll either move on it quick,

or you’ll spend the rest of the year comparing everything else to it.

Any Agent Can Write an Offer. Not Every Agent Can Hold It Together.

In Real Estate, any agent can write an offer.

That’s not the job.

The contracts are standardized. The forms are templated. The process itself is teachable, and most agents learn it quickly. Writing an offer is not what separates someone in this industry.

What happens after the offer is written is where the real job begins.

Real Estate Is Not Just a Transaction

Real estate is a high-pressure environment where money, timelines, uncertainty, and human emotion all collide at once.

And when that happens, people don’t show up as their most logical, composed selves.

They show up as humans.

And humans are complex.

You are not just working with a buyer or a seller. You are working with everything that person is carrying that day; and most of it has nothing to do with the house.

They could be navigating a strained relationship.
They could be under financial pressure they haven’t shared.
They could be grieving something quietly.
They could be celebrating something privately.
They could be afraid of making the wrong decision.

Loss. Love. Fear. Worry. Anger.

All of it walks into the room with them.

Pressure Changes People

Add a real estate transaction on top of that, and things shift quickly.

Deadlines tighten.
Decisions feel heavier.
Money becomes real.

And people react.

They second-guess themselves.
They become anxious.
They argue.
They overshare.
They look for certainty where there isn’t any yet.

This is not a flaw in the process.

This is the process.

The Job Is Not What People Think

Most people think a real estate agent’s job is to manage the deal.

It’s not.

The real job is to manage the environment the deal exists in.

A great real estate agent is the leader in the room. They set the tone. They control the pace. They create stability in moments where things could easily become unstable.

This is what we do every day.

Clients are not hiring us because we know how to fill out a contract. They are hiring us because of our experience and our ability to navigate situations that feel uncertain, emotional, or complex.

They are hiring us to lead.

People Respond to What They Feel

People don’t respond only to what is said.

They respond to what is felt.

Whether they realize it or not, people are constantly reading the environment around them. They are assessing safety, certainty, and control through tone, pace, body language, and presence.

If the person leading the situation feels rushed, uncertain, or reactive, it creates tension. It makes everything feel less stable, even when the situation itself is manageable.

If the person leading the situation is grounded, clear, and steady, the opposite happens.

People settle.
Conversations stay productive.
Emotions don’t escalate.

This is not about personality.

It’s about regulation.

You Set the Temperature of the Room

In real estate, whether you realize it or not, you are setting the temperature of every interaction.

A great agent understands that and takes responsibility for it.

They do not match the chaos in the room.
They do not get pulled into emotional reactions.
They do not create urgency where it does not exist.

They slow things down.
They simplify.
They guide.

They hold it together.

Most Things Are Not Emergencies

Most situations in real estate are not actually emergencies.

They just feel like they are.

A lender pushing back on a clause is not a crisis.
A lawyer questioning wording is not a deal breaker.
An unexpected issue is not the end of a deal.

There is almost always a solution.

The difference is whether someone is calm enough to find it.

This Is the Work

This is the job.

Not just moving a deal from point A to point B, but carrying people through a process that can feel overwhelming and making it feel controlled, manageable, and handled.

It is understanding that behind every decision is a human being navigating far more than what is written on paper.

It is recognizing that this work is not just transactional.

It is psychological.

It is emotional.

It is perfectly human.

The Difference

Any agent can write an offer.

But not every agent can hold it together.


If you’re looking for a Edmonton real estate experience that feels clear, steady, and handled from start to finish, that’s exactly how we operate.

You don’t need to have everything figured out. You just need the right person leading you through it.

SOLD: 9226 154 Street in Sherwood Edmonton

How Strategic Marketing Delivered Multiple Offers and a $770,000 Sale

Selling a home successfully in Edmonton isn’t about luck.

It’s about strategy, preparation, and visibility.

The recent sale of 9226 154 Street NW in Sherwood, Edmonton is a perfect example of how the right preparation and marketing approach can create momentum, attract serious buyers, and generate multiple offers.

Listed at $749,900, this exceptional home sold for $770,000 after just three days on the market — with multiple offers and multiple backup offers.

But the real story begins long before the home ever hit the MLS.

Preparing 9226 154 Street for the Market

At Iconic YEG Real Estate Team, we believe great results happen before buyers ever step through the door.

When preparing this Sherwood property for sale, our focus was simple:
make the home impossible to ignore.

This meant carefully planning how the property would be presented to the market.

Strategic Pre-Listing Preparation

Before listing day, we worked closely with the sellers to ensure the home was positioned to stand out from competing properties in West Edmonton.

Preparation included:

✔ Strategic pre-listing consultation
✔ Light staging and design guidance
✔ Professional photography
✔ High-quality video marketing
✔ Detailed digital marketing plan

Each step was designed to highlight the property’s strongest features and create excitement among buyers before showings even began.

Creating Maximum Exposure for Buyers

Today’s buyers search for homes online first. That means the first impression happens digitally, often before a buyer ever schedules a showing.

For 9226 154 Street, our marketing strategy ensured the home reached the widest possible audience.

Professional Real Estate Photography

Professional photography is one of the most important tools when selling a home.

High-quality, bright images showcased the property’s space, natural light, and layout — helping it stand out on platforms like:

  • REALTOR.ca

  • Google search

  • MLS listing sites

  • Social media feeds

When buyers scroll through dozens of homes online, visual presentation is what stops them.

Video Marketing That Attracts Buyers

Video tours allow buyers to emotionally connect with a property before they ever visit in person.

For this listing, we produced a professional video walkthrough, allowing potential buyers to explore the home’s layout and features from anywhere.

Video marketing is particularly powerful for:

  • Relocation buyers

  • Out-of-town purchasers

  • Busy professionals researching homes online

Social Media and Digital Reach

Marketing a home today goes far beyond MLS.

Through Iconic YEG’s digital marketing network, the listing reached thousands of potential buyers across multiple platforms, including:

  • Instagram

  • Facebook

  • YouTube

  • Buyer email networks

  • Private client databases

The goal was simple:

Generate excitement before the first showing.

The Result: Strong Buyer Activity

The response was immediate.

Within days of launching the listing, the home attracted strong buyer interest.

The result?

✔ Multiple showings
✔ Multiple offers
✔ Multiple backup offers
✔ SOLD above list price

For sellers, this is the ideal outcome — buyers competing for the property rather than negotiating down the price.

Why February Can Be the Best Time to Sell a Home in Edmonton

Many homeowners assume spring is the best time to sell.

But in reality, late winter can be one of the strongest opportunities.

February listings often benefit from:

  • Fewer competing homes on the market

  • Serious, motivated buyers

  • Less inventory creating stronger demand

  • Buyers who have been watching the market all winter

That combination can lead to stronger offers and faster sales.

The sale of 9226 154 Street is a perfect example of this timing advantage.

Why Preparation Matters When Selling Your Home

Many sellers believe the market alone determines their result.

But the truth is that presentation and strategy influence price more than most people realize.

Homes that sell quickly and above list price typically have three things in common:

1. Strategic Pricing

Pricing must attract buyers while still protecting the seller’s value.

2. Professional Marketing

Photos, video, and digital exposure ensure the property stands out.

3. Proper Preparation

Small improvements, staging guidance, and thoughtful presentation can significantly increase buyer interest.

At Iconic YEG, these elements are built into every listing strategy.

Thinking About Selling Your Home in Edmonton?

If you’re considering selling your home in Edmonton — whether in Sherwood, West Edmonton, or another community — preparation and marketing can make a significant difference in your final sale price.

The right strategy can help you:

  • attract more buyers

  • generate multiple offers

  • sell faster

  • maximize your home’s value

Every property deserves a tailored marketing plan designed to showcase it at its best.

Work With Iconic YEG Real Estate Team

At Iconic YEG Real Estate Team, we focus on strategic marketing, strong negotiation, and thoughtful preparation to help our clients achieve exceptional results.

If you’re curious about:

  • your home’s current value

  • how the Edmonton real estate market is performing

  • or what a custom selling strategy might look like for your property

A Home That Makes Everyday Living Easier

From the moment you walk in, the layout feels open and practical. The open-concept kitchen, living, and dining area is filled with natural light, creating a bright space that works just as well for quiet mornings with coffee as it does for hosting friends or family.

The kitchen has been updated with all new appliances, making meal prep simple and efficient while maintaining a clean, modern feel.

The primary bedroom is generously sized, offering direct access to the patio and a walk-through closet that leads to a newly renovated 3-piece bathroom complete with a walk-in shower and built-in seat.

  • New in-suite laundry appliances

  • An oversized storage room

  • Heated underground parking

  • A private storage cage

A Building Designed Around Community

What truly sets this property apart is the lifestyle offered by the building itself.

This well-established 55+ community is known for its welcoming atmosphere and exceptional amenities, giving residents plenty of ways to stay active, social, and engaged.

Residents enjoy access to:

  • A fitness room

  • Billiards and games area

  • A library

  • A spacious social room for gatherings

  • A guest suite for visiting friends or family

  • A convenient car wash in the parkade

For many residents, these shared spaces become the heart of the building—where neighbours become friends and social connections form naturally.

Walkable Convenience at Your Doorstep

Location plays a major role in quality of life, and this condo delivers on that front as well.

Situated just steps from essential amenities, residents enjoy easy access to:

  • Grocery stores

  • Restaurants and cafés

  • Medical clinics and pharmacies

  • Banks

  • The Edmonton Public Library

A Smart Option for Downsizing

Many buyers looking at 55+ communities are searching for something that offers less maintenance without sacrificing quality of life.

This condo provides exactly that balance.

Instead of worrying about yard work, snow removal, or ongoing home maintenance, residents can focus on enjoying their time—whether that means traveling, spending time with family, or simply enjoying a quieter, more manageable home.

A New Chapter, Without Compromise

Homes like this are about more than square footage.

They’re about creating a space where life becomes simpler, more social, and easier to enjoy.
