Additional improvements include a replaced sewer line, new furnace (2024), air conditioning (2018), new refrigerator, dishwasher, washer/dryer, Tesla charger, new fencing, and even a private hot tub oasis with updated electrical.Inside, the generous layout is perfect for gatherings--holiday dinners for 18, lively parties flowing seamlessly into the tranquil backyard, or movie nights in the versatile basement that doubles as a guest suite. Sunlight pours through every level, creating warmth and cheer in all seasons.Outside, the fenced yard offers privacy, birdsong, and a natural retreat. The neighborhood is equally special: friendly neighbors, excellent schools, tree-lined streets, and walkability to parks, Beaumont shops, Alberta arts and dining, and countless local favorites. Quiet yet central, it's minutes to downtown, the airport, and bike-friendly connections across the city.This home is more than a residence--it's a place to host, relax, connect, and truly belong.
