Every floor has been thoughtfully designed to balance style, comfort, and everyday function. The main level impresses with 9-foot ceilings and a bright open-concept layout that’s ideal for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen anchors the space with quartz countertops, sleek cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a central island perfect for gathering. Rich hardwood flooring carries into the inviting living room, where a gas fireplace adds warmth and character. A tucked-away 2-piece powder room completes this floor. On the second level, the primary bedroom serves as a relaxing retreat with a walk-in closet and private 4-piece ensuite. A second spacious bedroom, another full 4-piece bathroom, and convenient stackable laundry provide excellent functionality for families, guests, or roommates.
The third-floor loft is a standout feature and offers exceptional versatility. Whether you envision a second primary suite, executive home office, media lounge, or creative space, this level adapts beautifully. Highlights include a large walk-in closet, a luxurious 5-piece ensuite with double vanity and soaker tub, a built-in wet bar, and access to a private balcony - the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day.

Additional features include central air conditioning, a detached single garage, and a designated visitor parking stall at the rear.

Life in Seton offers the perfect balance of modern convenience and comfortable living, and this beautifully maintained semi-detached home captures it all. Designed with flexibility and everyday functionality in mind, this two-storey home features 2 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, and a desirable dual primary suite layout that works wonderfully for couples, roommates, or anyone looking for a versatile living arrangement. The main floor welcomes you with a bright and comfortable atmosphere, where the living room serves as a warm gathering space. A striking brick-facing fireplace adds character and charm, creating the perfect spot to relax at the end of the day. The layout flows naturally toward the back of the home where the open kitchen and dining area provide an excellent setting for hosting and everyday meals. The kitchen is thoughtfully designed with both style and practicality in mind. A large central island with quartz countertops anchors the space, while generous cabinetry and counter space ensure plenty of room for cooking and prep. A walk-in pantry offers excellent storage, keeping everything neatly organized. Completing the main level is a conveniently located 2-piece powder room along with well-planned closet space for added functionality. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with its dual primary suite configuration, offering privacy and comfort for each occupant. Both bedrooms include walk-in closets and their own 4-piece ensuite bathrooms, making the layout ideal for shared living or welcoming overnight guests. Separating the two suites is a central family room that provides a flexible bonus space—perfect for a home office, media lounge, or quiet reading area. The upper-level laundry adds everyday convenience right where you need it. The unfinished basement presents a great opportunity to customize the home to your needs. With insulation and rough-in plumbing already completed, plus a separate side entrance, the lower level offers excellent potential for future development. Outside, the yard is designed for low-maintenance enjoyment, featuring a stamped concrete patio that’s ideal for relaxing or entertaining. Bracket support is already in place for a future concrete staircase installation. A walkway leads to the oversized double detached garage, providing secure parking and additional storage space. Located just minutes from Seton’s energetic urban district, you’ll enjoy quick access to shops, restaurants, the South Health Campus, YMCA, and nearby schools. With its thoughtful layout, modern finishes, and room for future growth, this home is a fantastic opportunity to enjoy everything this thriving southeast Calgary community has to offer.&#xD;

I have listed a new property at 137 Marquis COMMON SE in Calgary. &lt;a href="https://derekthistle.com/mylistings.html/listing.a2290600-137-marquis-common-se-calgary-t3m-1n7.108139909"&gt;See details here&lt;/a&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&#xD;
&lt;p&gt;&#xD;
Welcome to a home that truly stands apart in the heart of Mahogany. Perfectly positioned on a fully fenced corner lot — and notably not a zero lot line — this beautifully maintained two-storey offers over 1,600 sq ft of thoughtfully designed living space above grade, exceptional natural light, and a layout that simply makes sense. From the moment you step into the open front foyer, you’ll appreciate the airy, contemporary feel. Expansive windows — including additional side yard windows — flood the home with sunshine, highlighting the upscale flooring and clean, modern finishes throughout. The main level is designed for everyday comfort and effortless  entertaining. The fantastic kitchen features quartz countertops, abundant cabinetry, a peninsula island with eating bar, pendant lighting, LED pot lights, and a large window over the sink create a bright and inspiring space for cooking and gathering. The adjoining great room flows seamlessly, anchored by a gas fireplace with full tile surround — a warm and inviting focal point for cozy evenings. And tucked away is a "pocket office" - perfect for kids homework or working at home. Upstairs, the “king-sized” primary retreat feels like a private sanctuary, complete with vaulted ceilings, a large walk-in closet, and a full ensuite featuring a relaxing soaker tub and separate shower. An additional side window enhances the sense of space and light. Two more well-proportioned bedrooms complete the upper level, offering flexibility for family &amp; guests. The basement was professionally developed in 2019 and adds versatility to the home, featuring a spacious bedroom, comfortable living room, and a full washroom — ideal for extended family, teens, or guests. Step outside to a generous south-facing backyard with a full-size covered deck, perfect for summer barbecues or relaxing in the shade. The oversized double garage measures an impressive 23x25, with approximately 200 square feet of attic storage accessible by ladder — a rare and practical bonus. Located in the award-winning lake community of Mahogany, you’ll enjoy four-season lake living with beaches, skating, paddleboarding, pathways, and parks — plus nearby schools, shopping, restaurants, and every amenity you need just minutes away. This is more than just a house — it’s a lifestyle opportunity in one of Calgary’s most sought-after communities.&#xD;

I have listed a new property at 114 Ranch ROAD in Okotoks. &lt;a href="https://derekthistle.com/mylistings.html/listing.a2286931-114-ranch-road-okotoks-t1s-0l2.108030289"&gt;See details here&lt;/a&gt;&#xD;
&lt;/p&gt;&#xD;
&#xD;
&lt;p&gt;&#xD;
Looking for a home that has the “wow” factor the moment you step inside? This former show home in Okotoks’ highly desirable Air Ranch community delivers exactly that—and so much more. With 5 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, and nearly every upgrade you could ask for, this property backs directly onto greenspace, offering a unique setting you won’t find anywhere else. It’s a rare combination of refined design and everyday comfort, all wrapped up in one incredible package. From the moment you walk in, the grand foyer makes an impression with 18’ ceilings, a sweeping spiral staircase, and natural light that fills the main floor. The layout is built for both entertaining and family living. The kitchen is every chef’s dream—featuring a Wolf gas range, Viking fridge, custom Hammersmith hood fan, and a convenient water filtration/softener system. Rich cabinetry runs floor-to-ceiling, paired with granite counters, a large island, and a walk-in pantry to keep everything organized. Throughout the main level, you’ll notice thoughtful details that set this home apart. A built-in audio system lets you enjoy music in every room. The office, tucked behind distinctive arched French doors, provides a quiet space for work or study. Even the laundry room has been elevated with granite counters to match the home’s cohesive, upscale feel. Upstairs, three generously sized bedrooms and two full bathrooms provide plenty of space for family and guests. The primary suite is the highlight—a true retreat with room for a king-sized bed and private seating area. The 5-piece ensuite feels like a spa with a granite double vanity, corner soaker tub, walk-in tiled shower, and expansive walk-in closet. The fully finished lower level is where this home really shines. With two additional bedrooms, a 3-piece bath featuring a steam shower, and a large family room complete with a cozy gas fireplace and built-in entertainment centre, there’s space for everyone. A granite-topped wet bar with sink, wine fridge, and microwave makes it easy to entertain or kick back for movie nights. You’ll also find a large finished storage area to keep everything neatly tucked away. Car enthusiasts or families with multiple vehicles will appreciate the massive heated garage, designed with both function and space in mind. Outdoors, the lifestyle continues with a screened-in covered sunroom off the kitchen eating nook, leading to a stone patio with a built-in fireplace and additional gas lines ready for your BBQ &amp; sunroom. Surrounded by mature trees, Gemstone lights for year-round curb appeal, and serviced by an underground sprinkler system, the yard is both private and low-maintenance. Central AC adds comfort through the summer months, so you’ll enjoy this home year-round. Air Ranch is one of Okotoks’ most distinctive communities, known for its quiet streets, beautiful homes, and unique aviation history. If you’re after a property that checks every box—style, function, and location—this home has it all. Come take a look for yourself!&#xD;

In real estate, location is everything — and Montgomery is one of those rare communities that truly delivers. Steps from the Bow River pathways and surrounded by beloved local cafés, shops, and green space, this beautifully appointed front-unit townhouse in a modern four-plex offers elevated inner-city living without compromise. With south-facing exposure and a sunny front patio, this well-maintained home is filled with natural light and offers nearly 2,200 sq ft of total developed living space across four finished levels. Every floor has been thoughtfully designed to balance style, comfort, and everyday function. The main level impresses with 9-foot ceilings and a bright open-concept layout that’s ideal for entertaining. The gourmet kitchen anchors the space with quartz countertops, sleek cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, and a central island perfect for gathering. Rich hardwood flooring carries into the inviting living room, where a gas fireplace adds warmth and character. A tucked-away 2-piece powder room completes this floor. On the second level, the primary bedroom serves as a relaxing retreat with a walk-in closet and private 4-piece ensuite. A second spacious bedroom, another full 4-piece bathroom, and convenient stackable laundry provide excellent functionality for families, guests, or roommates.
The third-floor loft is a standout feature and offers exceptional versatility. Whether you envision a second primary suite, executive home office, media lounge, or creative space, this level adapts beautifully. Highlights include a large walk-in closet, a luxurious 5-piece ensuite with double vanity and soaker tub, a built-in wet bar, and access to a private balcony - the perfect place to unwind at the end of the day. Downstairs, the fully finished basement extends your living space with a generous recreation or family room, another bedroom, and a 3-piece bathroom, ideal for guests, teens, or a private workout area. Additional features include central air conditioning, a detached single garage, and a designated visitor parking stall at the rear. Homes like this don’t come along often; modern design, flexible living spaces, and a walkable inner-city location that continues to grow in popularity. If you’ve been waiting for the right Montgomery property to call home, this one is well worth a look.&#xD;

This top-floor condo in Renfrew offers the best of both worlds: the convenience of inner-city living with the comfort of a neighbourhood that still feels welcoming and residential. From the moment you step inside, you’ll notice the meticulous care that has been taken of the unit, and the bright and open feel. High 10-foot ceilings give the entire unit an airy, open feel, while in-floor heating keeps it cozy and comfortable throughout the seasons.

You’re minutes to downtown, with quick access to Deerfoot Trail and the Trans-Canada, making commuting or getting out of the city simple. And when it comes to amenities, you won’t run out of options. Renfrew and nearby Bridgeland are home to some of Calgary’s favourite spots—Shiki Menya for ramen, Una for pizza, Blue Star Diner for breakfast, and Cannibale for cocktails. Bridgeland also adds boutique shops, coffee houses, fitness studios, and easy access to the Bow River pathways and St. Patrick’s Island. Closer to home, you’ll find community parks, playgrounds, and even an outdoor rink, all contributing to the neighbourhood’s friendly, connected vibe. With its combination of smart design, everyday conveniences, and a location that keeps you close to the best of Calgary, this Renfrew condo is ideal for young professionals or anyone looking for a low-maintenance lifestyle in one of the city’s most desirable communities.&#xD;

Welcome to a home that instantly puts you at ease—tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac and beautifully updated over time, it offers a warm, welcoming feel with the kind of thoughtful improvements that make daily living effortless. From the moment you step inside, the bright, spacious entry delivers a sense of openness and calm. Just off the foyer, the front living room provides valuable flexibility for how you want to live: a home office, a cozy reading room, a play space, or a stylish sitting area. Updated lighting added to this room enhances the ambience, while fresh interior paint and new flooring throughout the main and upper levels create a cohesive, modern aesthetic. The kitchen brings together function and charm with white cabinetry, quartz counters, a window over the sink, stainless steel appliances—including a new dishwasher (2024)—and a practical pantry for extra storage. Whether you’re prepping weekday meals or hosting gatherings, this space feels both comfortable and efficient. The adjacent family room is the heart of the home, complete with a wood-burning fireplace and newly added lighting that makes it perfect for curling up with a movie, unwinding after a long day, or gathering with loved ones. Upstairs, the home continues to impress with three generous bedrooms. The primary suite easily accommodates king-sized furniture and features a beautifully renovated ensuite that feels like a personal spa. Enjoy the oversized tiled shower, deep soaker tub, double sinks, and the luxury of extra room to move—an ideal retreat at the end of your day. The fully finished lower level expands your living space even further, offering two additional rooms, a flexible bonus area, and a comfortable secondary living room—great for a TV zone, playroom, gym, or hobby space. This level also features newer carpeting (the only carpeted area in the home) and includes a new washer for added convenience. The backyard is designed for making memories outdoors. A freshly painted deck is ready for summer BBQs, while the wide, grassy yard offers plenty of room for kids, pets, and play. A dedicated dog run keeps things tidy, and the large 10x10 shed—with a new roof—gives you the storage every homeowner appreciates. Practical updates offer peace of mind and long-term value: All Poly-B plumbing replaced, a new hot water tank, A/C, central vacuum, all windows and doors replaced between 2017–2022, shingles in 2017, and a furnace replaced in 2015. Even the exterior has been refreshed with new paint, and the home includes a professionally installed 30-amp EV charger plus custom built-in storage in the garage—ideal for keeping everything organized. With every major update taken care of and countless thoughtful touches throughout, this home is truly move-in ready.

Welcome to this wonderful two-storey townhome in the heart of Luxstone, perfectly positioned backing onto wide-open green space with direct access to walking and bike paths—and just steps from the in-complex playground. This is a home that truly blends comfort, style, and lifestyle. Inside, you’ll immediately notice the rich, deep chocolate-brown hardwood floors that flow throughout the main level, complemented by matching shaker-style cabinetry, stainless steel appliances, granite countertops, and striking stacked-stone accent walls. The main floor is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, with a bright open-concept layout that seamlessly connects the living room, dining area, and kitchen. Step outside through the rear doors to your private patio, where partial privacy fencing on either side frames a nearly unobstructed view of the expansive green space beyond. A convenient half bath completes this level. Upstairs, you’ll find three well-proportioned bedrooms, including an oversized primary retreat featuring a walk-in closet with a window and a private 4-piece ensuite. The two additional bedrooms are thoughtfully located down the hall alongside a full 4-piece bathroom—ideal for families, guests, or a home office setup. The fully finished basement adds even more living space with a comfortable rec room, laundry area, and ample storage—perfect for movie nights, a play area, or a home gym. Whether you’re enjoying your morning coffee, hosting summer BBQs, or simply watching the seasons change, this outdoor setting offers a rare sense of openness and tranquility. 
The single-car garage is extra deep and has been fully insulated, drywalled, and painted—ideal for both parking and additional storage. Practical upgrades and thoughtful finishes throughout make this home completely move-in ready. Located within walking distance to Nose Creek Park and surrounded by schools, shopping, and everyday amenities, this Luxstone townhome delivers exceptional value, comfort, and lifestyle. Backing onto green space, offering beautiful interior finishes, and situated in a family-friendly community—this is one you won’t want to miss.&#xD;
