Property of the Week: A Modern Farmhouse with a Backyard Pool in Altadore

Where it is

2005 48 Ave. S.W.

The design

This home was built by Calgary developer Trickle Creek Homes and captures all the charm of a modern farmhouse. This modern style embraces a minimalistic aesthetic while often drawing on farm architectural designs. Key design elements of the style that have been captured in this home include interior wood accents and high contrast yet neutral colours that balance modern and classic style.

What to love

Step inside to discover a seamless blend of style, function and tranquillity. The home spans over 5,000 square feet of space across two levels and a basement. The white oak hardwood throughout the home brings a sense of warmth and elegance.

The open-concept kitchen is equipped with top-of-the-line appliances, a butler’s pantry, an oversized wood block island and rich dark wood cabinets. Adjacent to the kitchen is a formal dining area that seamlessly flows into the cozy living room, which has a wood-burning fireplace.

The floating staircase leads upstairs to the primary bedroom, which enjoys a spacious layout, a full ensuite and a generously sized closet. The two other bedrooms on this floor each have spacious closets and share a bathroom. The top-floor loft is brimming with potential with its wood beam ceilings and heated balconies at the front and back. It could be turned into a gym, a yoga space, a private reading area or something else.

The lower level offers plenty of fun when the entertainment is happening inside. The full media and games room will entertain guests and family for hours. The south-facing backyard is also ready to entertain guests with a pool and paved court for sports.
