1616 Lake Bonavista Drive SE

Exquisitely renovated in Lake Bonavista, this stunning home has everything. Rich hardwood floors throughout the main level are a rustic base that combines perfectly with modern upgrades to create a space that is inviting, comfortable, and luxurious. Big windows in the living area bring in tons of natural light, and the layout flows smoothly back through a formal dining area and into a sunny kitchen. Gorgeous selections here include Shaker-style cabinetry with undermount lighting, quartz counters, glass tile backsplashes, and quality stainless appliances. The space overlooks a sunken family room, where a cozy wood fireplace and French doors open to the south facing large back deck and patio; this home was made for entertaining! The attention to detail is amazing. Upgraded lighting adds to the esthetic, and even the side entry has been beautifully remodeled with tiled floors and floor to ceiling built-ins. The bathroom here is lovely outside of a main floor bedroom or office at the front of the house. Upstairs, a stained wood vanity and a tiled tub surround and penny marble floor align with the country-chic tone of the home. Even the interior doors have all been replaced with a classic five-panel style. The upper level includes three more bedrooms for a growing family. The primary bedroom is updated and bright, with generous closets and an ensuite where a vessel sink and a large glassed-in shower make this feel like your own personal spa. The finished basement is amazing. A custom bar is a showstopper in the living area, and there is a fifth bedroom on this floor as well as a bonus area. The bathroom is sleek and modern and also includes a laundry area. There is lots of extra storage on this level, too. Outside, a 800 square foot wraparound wood deck and a patio offer plenty of room to enjoy the sunny days in the south-facing backyard. The lawn is edged with mature trees and planter boxes, and there is an oversize detached garage. This is a fantastic location in one of the best communities in Calgary. You can watch the kids walk to the Andrew Sibbald Elementary School directly across the street, and this family friendly area has tons of parks and green space to enjoy, including Fish Creek Park, which is in walking distance. The Lake is also nearby with the south gate a short stroll so that you can take advantage of all the recreation options available in a lake access community within just minutes. Shopping is also available within a short drive, and proximity to major routes makes this one of the best-connected areas in southeast Calgary. If you’ve been waiting for a home that just has that something special, this is it! See it today.
