79 Woodhaven Road Sw, Calgary

This is a rare opportunity to own a timeless estate home offered for the very first time. Built in 1984 and lovingly cared for by its original owners, this residence combines classic Craftsman character with thoughtful updates and an unbeatable setting. The curb appeal is immediate with a custom stained wood front door with decorative glass sidelight, ornamental gable detailing (accent painted), a newer roof, and wood-look vinyl windows that add both style and efficiency. A two-car attached garage with a paneled door and upper windows plus a side man door adds convenience and curb presence. An aerial view highlights the quiet, tree-lined street and proximity to nearby green space and pathways. Step inside and be greeted by a grand foyer with pendant lighting and an open oak staircase that opens into a formal living and dining room where soaring vaulted ceilings, expansive windows, and hand-scraped hardwood create a dramatic yet welcoming atmosphere. The flow of the main floor is anchored by large-format ceramic tile at the entry and through to the kitchen, while the balance is finished in rich hardwood for a seamless, elegant feel. The kitchen has been updated with granite countertops, a granite composite sink, under-cabinet lighting, newer appliances, and a sunny breakfast nook overlooking the spectacular south-facing backyard (large picture windows bring in abundant light). Here, a gardener’s dream unfolds — a private oasis of mature perennials and lush greenery, perfect for outdoor dining, entertaining, or simply enjoying the sunshine. A custom electric awning extends across the large deck to provide shade when desired, making this backyard a year-round retreat. Connected to the kitchen, the inviting sunken family room features newer carpet, a brick gas fireplace with a raised hearth, custom oak built-ins, and a wet bar. A main-floor laundry with cabinetry, a convenient side entrance, and an updated two-piece bath complete this level. Upstairs, newer carpet and laminate unify the space. The spacious primary suite offers dual closets and a renovated ensuite with his-and-hers sinks, a curbless glass-tiled shower with frameless glass enclosure and built-in bench, and safety enhancements. Two additional bedrooms (one with an accent wall shown in photos), a four-piece bath, and a versatile loft provide comfortable and flexible living. The fully finished lower level expands your options with a bedroom that features an egress window, a full bath, a games room and media space with newer carpet, and abundant storage including utility/utility-room areas. Notable upgrades include two high-efficiency furnaces and dual hot water tanks (2023) ensuring peace of mind. An attached garage with side man door adds convenience. Ideally located in sought-after Woodbine, this home is just steps from Fish Creek Park and Woodbine School, with quick access to Stoney Trail, shopping, restaurants, and coffee shops. More than a home, this is a statement property with a sun-soaked south garden that must be seen to be appreciated — beautifully updated, move-in ready, and available for immediate possession.
