There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

      <title>Water and Septic Testing We Trust- Titan Water Systems</title>
      <link>https://sextonhomerealty.com/blog.html/water-and-septic-testing-we-trust--titan-water-systems-9025403</link>
      <description>&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;When it comes to acreage living, having a trusted water and septic professional is incredibly important. Unlike city properties that rely on municipal infrastructure, rural homes often depend on private wells, septic systems, pumps, cisterns, and water treatment systems that require proper maintenance, testing, and ongoing care. These systems are a major part of both the safety and long-term value of an acreage property, which is why having knowledgeable professionals involved can make a significant difference for both buyers and homeowners.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;That’s why we confidently recommend Troy and the team at Titan Water Systems. Serving Southern Alberta for over 25 years, Titan has built a strong reputation for honest service, extensive industry knowledge, and dependable support for rural properties. Clients consistently speak highly of their professionalism, responsiveness, and ability to clearly explain systems and solutions without pressure or unnecessary upselling.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Why Water &amp;amp; Septic Inspections Matter:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Helps identify costly issues before purchasing a property&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Ensures well water is safe and free from contaminants&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Confirms septic systems are functioning properly&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Provides peace of mind for acreage buyers unfamiliar with private systems&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Helps homeowners better understand maintenance and long-term care&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Protects the long-term value and functionality of rural properties&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Whether it’s inspecting a septic system during a real estate transaction, troubleshooting water quality concerns, or installing treatment systems for long-term reliability, Troy and the Titan team provide trusted expertise that acreage owners can rely on. Their commitment to client care and honest guidance continues to make them a valuable resource for rural homeowners throughout Southern Alberta.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Titan Water Systems Specializes In:&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Real Estate Water &amp;amp; Septic Inspections&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Well Water Testing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Water Filtration &amp;amp; Treatment Systems&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Septic System Inspections &amp;amp; Repairs&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Pumps &amp;amp; Pressure Systems&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Cistern Installations &amp;amp; Maintenance&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Radon Testing&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Acreage Water System Support&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;What makes Troy and his team stand out is their practical expertise and commitment to helping clients understand their systems without unnecessary upselling or pressure. Many clients consistently mention Titan’s responsiveness, professionalism, and ability to explain things clearly — especially for buyers unfamiliar with acreage properties.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Clients frequently describe Titan as:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Fast and reliable&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Honest and knowledgeable&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Thorough during inspections&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Helpful in emergency situations&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Easy to work with and highly responsive&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

This home has seen numerous valuable updates, including a new roof in 2022, blown in attic insulation in 2024, a brand new hot water tank in 2026, and yearly furnace duct cleaning with the most recent service completed in 2026, giving peace of mind to the next owner. Outside, the home has been recently painted and features a new front deck, new gated fencing, mature trees for privacy and shade, and an exterior storage shed for all your seasonal equipment and tools. The generous corner lot offers plenty of space for gardening, entertaining, storage, or simply enjoying your own private outdoor retreat. Ideally located in a quiet, established neighbourhood, you'll appreciate being just minutes from parks, schools, shopping, healthcare services, and the RCMP detachment, providing both convenience and peace of mind. Move in ready and thoughtfully updated inside and out, this is a fantastic opportunity to own a well cared for home in the welcoming community of Sundre.&#xD;

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

      <title>More Than a Checklist: Why Home Inspections Matter</title>
      <link>https://sextonhomerealty.com/blog.html/more-than-a-checklist-why-home-inspections-matter-9049209</link>
      <description>&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Buying a home is about more than finding the right location, layout, or price point. It's about understanding the property you're investing in and gaining the knowledge needed to confidently move forward with one of life's biggest purchases.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A professional home inspection provides buyers with valuable insight into how a home functions, what systems may require future maintenance, and what ownership may realistically look like in the years ahead.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Understanding the Home Beyond What You Can See&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Even the most beautiful homes have systems, components, and maintenance requirements that aren't immediately visible during a showing. A professional inspection helps buyers better understand how the home operates and what areas may require attention over time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Rather than viewing an inspection as simply looking for problems, it should be viewed as an opportunity to learn about the property and prepare for future homeownership.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Benefits of a professional home inspection include:&lt;/p&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Provides a better understanding of the home's major systems.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Helps buyers budget for future maintenance and repairs.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Identifies areas that may need monitoring over time.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Creates realistic expectations for homeownership.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Provides confidence before moving forward with a purchase.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Why Education Matters During the Buying Process&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;One of the most overlooked benefits of a quality home inspection is education.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A great inspector doesn't simply hand over a report—they take the time to explain how a home works, answer questions, and help buyers understand what is normal, what requires attention, and what should be planned for in the future.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;This knowledge can be incredibly valuable, especially for first-time buyers or anyone purchasing a home with unfamiliar systems and features.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Why We Recommend Jeremy Cook and On The Money Home Inspections&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;When our clients are looking for a trusted home inspector, we're proud to recommend Jeremy Cook of On The Money Home Inspections.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Jeremy has built a reputation for providing thorough inspections, detailed reporting, and a client-focused experience that helps buyers feel comfortable and informed throughout the process. His approach goes beyond simply inspecting a property—he takes the time to educate clients and ensure they understand the home they're purchasing.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;What we appreciate most is Jeremy's commitment to helping buyers make informed decisions without creating unnecessary stress or confusion. His inspections are comprehensive, professional, and designed to provide practical insight that clients can actually use.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Why We Trust On The Money Home Inspections&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;ul&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Thorough and comprehensive inspections.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Clear, easy-to-understand reporting.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Focus on educating and informing clients.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Professional and approachable communication.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Helps buyers understand long-term home maintenance.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Supports confident decision-making during the conditional period.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;li&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A trusted resource we are proud to recommend to our clients.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;/li&gt;&lt;/ul&gt;&lt;div data-type="columns" data-img-v-align="" data-ratio="" data-flip="" data-content="image-card" class=""&gt;&lt;div data-type="column" data-content="image-column"&gt;&lt;div data-type="block-image" data-block="true" data-align="none"&gt;&lt;img src="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/g-SyeLtmdfGDA7l8d4rblP5tlRFadQK10Z1EWr2Qk1s/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC82NjUxNS9ibG9nL3N6a3cvc3prd3BycmNnb3FlLmpwZw" class="" data-type="content-image" data-original-src="//static.myrealpage.com/wps/rest/66515/blog/szkw/szkwprrcgoqe.jpg" srcset="https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/g-SyeLtmdfGDA7l8d4rblP5tlRFadQK10Z1EWr2Qk1s/rs:auto:1600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC82NjUxNS9ibG9nL3N6a3cvc3prd3BycmNnb3FlLmpwZw 1600w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/rV2aq_dp7aO6LuaUEQ5pDwiBKQrm2sd15QHKrfFZjy4/rs:auto:1200:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC82NjUxNS9ibG9nL3N6a3cvc3prd3BycmNnb3FlLmpwZw 1200w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/hMi7irt2ca3USWYSvZ5Id9cZUuw1-cjjJoN77BVt1eY/rs:auto:800:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC82NjUxNS9ibG9nL3N6a3cvc3prd3BycmNnb3FlLmpwZw 800w,https://iss-cdn.myrealpage.com/08pfwmVP2lNcD8waWKAYJqvGYUZ4Yw5QhDjlc6Iq0BU/rs:auto:600:0:0/g:sm/aHR0cDovL3Jlcy5teXJlYWxwYWdlLmNvbS93cHMvcmVzdC82NjUxNS9ibG9nL3N6a3cvc3prd3BycmNnb3FlLmpwZw 600w" sizes="(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 50vw"&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;div data-type="column" data-content="content"&gt;&lt;h3&gt;Jeremy Cook&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;h3&gt;&lt;a target="" rel="" href="https://inspectonthemoney.com/" data-type="link"&gt;https://inspectonthemoney.com/&lt;/a&gt;&lt;/h3&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;/div&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;&lt;/p&gt;</description>

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

      <title>Do You Need a Professional Cleaner?- Here Is A Cleaner We Trust</title>
      <link>https://sextonhomerealty.com/blog.html/do-you-need-a-professional-cleaner--here-is-a-cleaner-we-trust-9040713</link>
      <description>&lt;h2&gt;Why Professional Cleaning Matters When Buying or Selling a Home&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Moving is an exciting milestone, whether you're preparing to sell your current home or settling into a new one. Amidst packing boxes, coordinating movers, and managing timelines, one detail that should never be overlooked is the importance of a professionally cleaned home.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;A clean home does more than simply look good. It creates a welcoming environment, reduces stress during a major life transition, and helps ensure a smooth experience for both buyers and sellers.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top: 0; --margin-bottom: 0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;The Importance of Cleaning Before Selling&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;When preparing a home for the market, first impressions matter. Potential buyers often make their initial judgment within moments of entering a property. A professionally cleaned home helps showcase the space at its absolute best, allowing buyers to focus on the home's features rather than dust, fingerprints, or overlooked areas.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;h2&gt;The Importance of Cleaning Before Moving In&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Purchasing a home is one of life's biggest investments. Before unpacking and making memories in your new space, it's important to start with a fresh, clean environment.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Even when a home appears clean, there are often areas that have been missed during a move-out. A professional deep clean ensures every corner, surface, and detail is addressed so you can move in with confidence.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;hr data-margin-top="0" class="margin-top-0 margin-bottom-0" data-margin-bottom="0" style="--margin-top: 0; --margin-bottom: 0;"&gt;&lt;h2&gt;Why We Recommend Miss Green Clean&lt;/h2&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;When our clients ask for a trusted cleaning company, we confidently recommend Melanie Burden and the team at Miss Green Clean.&lt;/p&gt;&lt;p class="block-p"&gt;Serving Calgary, Canmore, and surrounding communities, Miss Green Clean has built a reputation for delivering exceptional service with professionalism, reliability, and attention to detail.

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene.

Outside, the backyard was designed for relaxing and entertaining with a two-tier deck, gas rough-in, underground sprinklers, and direct access to the walking paths behind. The heated garage, rubber driveway, and new front porch completed in 2025 add to the home’s standout curb appeal and functionality.  Additional updates include exterior paint in 2024, roof in 2020, and furnace in 2024. An exceptional bungalow in a location that keeps you close to parks, pathways, and everyday amenities.&#xD;

A rare fine, this 2004 home offers a bright, open layout with vaulted ceilings that make the space feel larger than expected. The main living area flows easily from the living room to the kitchen and dining space—practical for everyday living or having people over.  There are three bedrooms in total, including a primary suite with its own 4-piece ensuite. The additional bedrooms are well-sized and work for guests, kids, or a home office.  Outside, the treed lot adds privacy and a bit of separation from the neighbours, with space to relax or enjoy the yard.  A solid option if you’re looking for something low-maintenance with a functional layout.&#xD;

River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again.

Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself.

I have listed a new property at 2027 42 AVENUE SW in Calgary. &lt;a href="https://sextonhomerealty.com/mylistings.html/listing.a2306213-2027-42-avenue-sw-calgary-t2t-2m8.108625991"&gt;See details here&lt;/a&gt;&#xD;

There's a reason people fall in love with homes like this. It's not a single thing — it's the way it all works together. The way it's been cared for. The way it makes you feel like you're already home. This beautifully maintained residence offers refined design and everyday comfort, with thoughtful upgrades throughout that mean you can simply move in and start living. The main level sets the tone — its open-concept layout, rich hardwood floors, and soaring coffered ceilings offer a sense of flow that feels elegant and livable. The mudroom and powder room add the kind of polish that families and busy professionals appreciate. At its heart, the kitchen is built to impress without trying too hard. Custom cabinets, sleek quartz surfaces, and a generous island create a space that's at home hosting a dinner party or a Tuesday night family meal. Premium appliances — including a gas cooktop, beverage fridge, and newer dishwasher and built-in microwave — are a chef’s dream. Upstairs, high ceilings and three large bedrooms offer room to breathe. A dedicated built-in workspace makes working from home feel intentional, not improvised. The primary suite, complete with a spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite, and spacious walk-in closet offers a genuine retreat. The finished basement extends your living space beautifully, with a large rec room, a wet bar with fridge, fourth bedroom, and a full bathroom — ready to enjoy from day one. This home has been meticulously cared for. A newer roof (2017), updated furnace and water softener (2020), a full interior repaint and plush carpeting (2023), and a new 75-gallon hot water tank (2024) mean the big things are already taken care of. The south-facing backyard is a summer oasis — its raised patio, with awning and ambient lighting turns an ordinary evening into something worth lingering over. Morning coffee or evening entertaining with friends, this space delivers. And then there's where you get to live. Altadore lives up to its reputation with village charm — quiet streets, independent shops, and a vibrant foodie scene. Weekends mean slow brunches, sunny patios, and great coffee, all just a stroll away. Outside your door, Sandy Beach offers riverfront picnics and lazy summer afternoons tubing on the Elbow River. River Park — one of the best off-leash dog parks in the city — is a short stroll away. Flanders Park adds open spaces and playgrounds that young families return to again and again. Families also love the local school options. Altadore School is a wonderful public primary with a strong community feel. The Lycée offers prestigious private French education. Master's Academy is one of the city's top charters. Public, private, charter — the choices are here, and they're all good ones. And when the city calls, you're ready. The downtown core is close, transit is convenient, and getting out of town for a weekend adventure is easier than you'd think. Altadore doesn't need to oversell itself. It just quietly, confidently delivers — every single day&#xD;

I have listed a new property at 13 Green Meadow CRESCENT in Strathmore. &lt;a href="https://sextonhomerealty.com/mylistings.html/listing.a2305867-13-green-meadow-crescent-strathmore-t1p-1h4.108606803"&gt;See details here&lt;/a&gt;&#xD;

Great opportunity for an investor or someone looking to offset their mortgage. Live upstairs and rent out the illegal basement suite for extra income. The main floor offers a bright and functional layout with 2 bedrooms, including the primary with its own 3 piece ensuite. Spacious living and dining areas flow into the large kitchen with plenty of room for everyday living.  The lower level features an illegal 2 bedroom suite with a separate living space and kitchen setup, making it ideal for extended family or rental potential. Parking is located at the back of the property for added convenience.  
Several important updates have already been completed including new roof, windows and doors, new flooring, renovated main bathroom, new shower, and new toilets. A solid revenue property with plenty of upside.&#xD;
