This River Song Duplex is truly exceptional! This former 3-bedroom showhome includes a single attached garage and backs onto a greenbelt leading to the paths of River Heart Forest. This lovingly maintained home has been updated with extensive landscaping, air conditioning, and several other designer upgrades. The front yard is thoughtfully landscaped with trees and shrubs, newly poured aggregate sidewalks, and a stylish new trellis. Upon entering, you are greeted by a large tiled front entrance with built-in seating and storage, a two-piece powder room, and access to the oversized single garage. The garage features a 13'+ ceiling height, is fully insulated and drywalled, and includes a workbench/workshop area and a brand new mezzanine for additional storage or workshop space. Beautiful hardwood flooring leads into the open-concept main living area, featuring 9' knockdown ceilings. The large kitchen includes a center island, quartz countertops, stylish soft-close cabinetry with under-cabinet lighting, a large corner pantry, and high-end stainless steel appliances. The living room boasts a cozy gas fireplace with a tile surround and mantle, offering beautiful views of the extensively landscaped backyard. The well-lit dining room is perfect for family gatherings and provides access to the rear deck via sliding patio doors. The living/dining area is bright with large windows and showcases a vaulted/trayed ceiling with integrated recessed lighting; there are built-in shelving and a media/display area adjacent to the TV, creating additional storage and styling opportunities. The interior photos also show neutral carpeting in the main living/bonus areas and tasteful designer paint and artwork throughout. The upper level also features 9' ceilings and contains a large middle bonus room with a vaulted trayed ceiling, a well-appointed laundry area, a four-piece bathroom, two large secondary bedrooms, and a huge primary bedroom with a walk-in closet and a beautiful spa-like ensuite bathroom with two sinks and an oversized, design-inspired frameless shower. The unfinished lower level awaits your creative ideas and is thoughtfully laid out to accommodate a fourth bedroom and bathroom, or it can be left open for a large rec room/play area. The photo views of the lower-level exterior show a covered under-deck storage area with exterior stairs and a stone-lined access way leading down to the yard, offering plentiful secure outdoor storage. The stunning backyard sets this property apart with its several trees and foliage, including pear and crab apple trees, tall privacy fencing, beautiful large sandstone rocks, and a flat sodded area perfect for a firepit or trampoline (the photos show a large trampoline currently in place). Enjoy the privacy of no rear neighbors and a rear gate leading to several paths for exploration. The gardens include lush perennial beds and colorful plantings that enhance the private, park-like setting. Other notable features include central air conditioning, built-in speakers, designer paint colors throughout, and ample side and rear yard storage, including a newly built under-deck storage area with stairs and a retaining wall. This home is in a great location on a quiet street, close to several schools, downtown Cochrane, and offers excellent access west to the mountains.
