Description
This lovingly cared-for bi-level sits on a sunny corner lot in one of inner-city Calgary's most beloved communities — Tuxedo Park — and offers something that is genuinely hard to find: a warm, thoughtfully laid-out home paired with a backyard that has to be seen to be believed. Inside, the open-concept main floor is bright and welcoming, with south-facing exposure, a new patio door, and updated upstairs windows that flood the space with natural light year-round. The gas-burning fireplace gives the living area real character, and the layout just works — main floor laundry, a massive primary bedroom, two full bathrooms, three bedrooms total, and storage everywhere you need it. Newer hot water tank, double detached garage, and a level of care throughout that reflects genuine pride of ownership. The backyard is where this property becomes truly special. Over twelve years, the seller — a professional ecologist and arborist — has built a Japanese-inspired garden of remarkable depth and beauty. A stone lantern, bamboo water fountain, dry creek bed with stone bridge, and fragrant sweeps of creeping thyme create an atmosphere unlike anything you'll find in a typical Calgary backyard. The edible landscape is equally impressive: mature grapevines, fruiting cherry trees, haskaps, saskatoons, gooseberries, arctic kiwi, strawberry beds, and over a decade of established herbs mean this garden genuinely feeds you through the season. A rainwater capture system and self-watering wicking beds keep it all thriving with minimal effort. This is not a project — it is a fully mature, living landscape ready to be enjoyed from day one.Walkable to Lina's Italian Market, Centre Street, great restaurants, schools, and playgrounds. Minutes to downtown. For a full look at the garden — its history, design philosophy, and everything it grows — visit the digital brochure in the links!!Properties like this don't last.
