THIS is the Riverbend home you’ve been waiting for. Tucked in the quiet corner of sought-after Riverbend Estates, just steps from Carburn Park, the Bow River and an incredible pathway system. This beautifully renovated home offers something increasingly hard to find: a large, flat lot, mature trees, a backyard oasis and an established neighbourhood without sacrificing the fresh, bright feel of a beautifully updated home.

Step inside to soaring vaulted ceilings, abundant natural light and an airy, open feel. Thoughtful renovations include updated flooring, modern railings, recessed lighting, fresh finishes and beautifully updated bathrooms, creating a home that feels current and inviting while retaining the architectural character that makes it special. A white brick fireplace with natural wood mantle brings warmth and texture to the main living space.

At the heart of the home, the renovated kitchen features crisp white cabinetry, subway tile backsplash, stainless steel appliances and expansive stone countertops with a generous peninsula for seating. Bright, functional and welcoming, it’s equally suited to busy mornings, homework at the counter or a kitchen full of friends on Saturday night.

Upstairs, the primary retreat has character all its own with a beautiful wood plank ceiling, generous windows, walk-in closet and updated ensuite with in-floor heat. The open to below design continues the sense of volume and light, while additional bedrooms and refreshed bathrooms offer space designed to grow with a family.

The lower level feels like a natural extension of the home - warm, comfortable and beautifully finished for everyday living. A spacious family room is perfect for movie nights or kids to hang out, with additional space for a bedroom, home office or flex room, plus a bathroom already roughed-in and ready to complete.

Meaningful improvements have also been completed behind the scenes: Poly-B plumbing has been completely removed and replaced, approximately 61% of the home’s windows have been replaced, the furnace is brand new (2026), the hot water tank is approx. 18 months old, and central A/C was added approx. seven years ago.

And then there’s the backyard. Set on an extra-large, flat lot surrounded by mature trees and established landscaping, this is a true outdoor oasis. A spacious newer deck and pergola set the stage for summer dinners and evening drinks, while the expansive lawn, garden areas and newer fencing leave room for kids to play, dogs to run and gardeners to make it their own. Private, established and beautifully usable - it’s the kind of backyard newer communities simply can’t replicate.

All of this is steps from Carburn Park and the Bow River, with walking, biking and kilometres of pathways at your doorstep, plus Quarry Park shopping, restaurants and amenities nearby.

Fresh and bright, warm and welcoming, with the space, lot and location that are so difficult to recreate - this is established Riverbend living!
