Penthouse style living, complete with unobstructed views of the downtown skyline including the iconic Calgary tower – could it get any better? Welcome to Mt. Royal Terrace, one of Lower Mount Royal’s hidden gems, set just a block from the hottest restaurants along popular 17th Avenue. Inside, luxe details give upscale vibes that will make this the go-to spot for all your gatherings. Rich espresso cabinetry in the kitchen forms a stunning contrast with pristine white quartz counters and luxury vinyl plank flooring. Coffered ceilings, under-cabinet lighting, and subway tile backsplashes add an elegant visual dynamic, and quality stainless appliances finish the modern aesthetic. A pantry closet offers storage shelving and space for all your extras, as well as in-suite laundry. The huge eat-up island will be the hub of your dinner parties, and it overlooks a spacious and sunny living area, where a statement wood-burning fireplace is a rare feature that invites cozy conversations and relaxing nights in. Step through the sliding glass doors to a massive private balcony that runs the length of the condo and has trendy brownstone vibes that perfectly frame the city panorama. The primary suite is gorgeous haven, with an extensive walk-in closet and a lovely ensuite complete with a jetted soaker tub. This room has direct access to the balcony, as does the generous second bedroom. The main bathroom has recently been remodeled, where you will enjoy a spa-like steam shower with a bench, and central air conditioning rounds out this amazing home. The complex is well-managed, and offers plentiful common area patios and rooftop gardens, and this unit also has two parking stalls and an assigned storage locker in the heated parkade. This area is quiet, yet conveniently close to a plethora of eateries and shops, and living a walkable lifestyle is absolutely possible here. Proximity to primary routes connects this central community to the rest of the city in just a short drive, and you can easily get out to the mountains as well! The building does not allow any pets, cats, dogs or otherwise. Ask your realtor for a copy of bylaws included in MLS supplements.
