Orchard Dreams & Mid-Century Soul

Welcome to 5069 48 Avenue, Bon Accord

What if we told you that for under $300,000, you could own a renovated mid-century home on a fully treed, oversized lot, just 12 minutes from CFB Edmonton? And that instead of city noise and postage-stamp yards, you’d get a private orchard, a spacious home with architectural charm, and a lifestyle rooted in peace and space?

Welcome to 5069 48 Avenue in Bon Accord.

Why Bon Accord?

Let’s start with the town. Bon Accord might not have been on your radar—but that’s exactly why it’s such a gem. This quiet, connected community offers more land, less stress, and a sense of calm you just can’t replicate in the city. With quicker-than-you’d-expect access to Edmonton and just a short drive to CFB Edmonton, Bon Accord gives you the space to breathe without giving up convenience.

Whether you're military, remote-working, or simply looking to stretch out and start a new chapter, this location works.

A Mid-Century Home That Still Hits

Originally built in 1964, this 3-level split has been thoughtfully and professionally renovated—preserving the best of its character (vaulted ceilings! sun-filled windows! mid-century bones!) while modernizing all the parts that matter most.

Let’s take a walk through.

Main Floor: Light, Layout & Flow

Step through the front door and you’re immediately greeted with vaulted ceilings and massive south-facing windows that flood the space with natural light. The open-concept main floor features newer laminate flooring throughout, bringing warmth and a clean finish underfoot.

The kitchen is compact but efficient—stainless steel appliances, smart storage, and a layout that makes dinner prep feel like a breeze. Just off the kitchen is a cozy dining nook that keeps you connected to the main living space, perfect for easy entertaining or slow weekend breakfasts.

Upper Level: Bright Bedrooms & Main Bath

The upper level houses two junior bedrooms, each bright and welcoming, with good closet space and easy access to the full 4-piece main bathroom. Whether you’re growing a family, hosting guests, or creating a work-from-home sanctuary, these rooms are flexible and inviting.

Lower Level: The Dreamy Primary Retreat

This is where things get elevated.

The fully finished lower level is home to a stunning, completely renovated primary suite—designed to feel more like a boutique hotel than a basement. You’ll find:

  • A spa-inspired ensuite with double sinks, a luxury glass shower, and his and hers walk-in closets

  • A layout that offers total privacy, quiet, and calm

  • Enough space for a king bed, dresser, and cozy reading corner

If you’ve been craving a grown-up space that’s yours and yours alone, this is it.

Not Just a Backyard — Your Personal Orchard

Let’s talk about the yard, because it’s honestly a showstopper.

The lot is fully fenced, fully landscaped, and fully alive. Mature fruit trees, tall hedges, space for gardens, space for kids, space for dogs, hammocks, bonfires, raised beds—you name it. It backs onto trees, giving you privacy and that deep-breath, birds-chirping feeling the moment you step outside.

Whether you’re a gardener, a dreamer, or just someone who wants more space to live, this yard delivers.

Extras That Make a Difference

This home isn’t just beautiful—it’s smart:

  • Nearly 1,400 sq ft of total finished living space

  • A rare double tandem garage—perfect for tools, toys, workshop dreams, or simply extra storage

  • A sunroom that doubles as a plant haven, reading room, or chill-out zone

  • A large laundry/mudroom that makes sense (finally!)

The Vibe

This is a home for people who want more.
More nature. More calm. More connection to what matters.
Less noise. Less rush. Less pressure to settle.

Whether you’re planting roots, starting over, or simplifying into something better, this property gives you the bones, the beauty, and the space to build a lifestyle—not just live in a house.

We thought you might be.

The Kind of Home That Changes the Way You Live

#104, 1350 Windermere Way SW | $574,900

Some properties check a lot of boxes.
This one creates new ones.

Welcome to #104 in Windermere Mansions, where thoughtful design meets real-world functionality—and where downsizing doesn’t mean compromising. This is not about less. It’s about better.

You Drive In, Shut the World Out, and Breathe

No circling the parkade. No elevator lobbies. No navigating through hallways with bags and keys and winter boots.

You drive directly into your oversized private double garage, which is heated, secure, and connected right to your unit. You unload your groceries straight into your own in-suite elevator—not one you share with the rest of the building. This elevator takes you to all three levels, including your kitchen, your bedroom, and your finished rec room downstairs.

It’s not flashy. It’s functional. And if you’ve ever lived in a condo before, you’ll know just how rare—and valuable—that is.

This Kitchen Isn’t "Condo Nice." It’s Just... Nice.

Let’s talk about the kitchen. Because it’s one of the first things you’ll notice, and probably the one that will stay with you.

It’s bigger and better than in most detached homes. There’s a gas stove. Granite counters. Full pantry and coffee bar area. A built-in wine fridge. New backsplash. Thoughtful layout. Lots of space to actually cook, actually host, and actually enjoy being in it.

This isn’t a "we’ll make it work" kitchen. This is a “what time should we come over?” kitchen.

Space That Feels Like It Was Designed for You

Across three levels, you have just shy of 2,000 square feet to stretch out. You’ll find:

  • Two large bedrooms, each with its own ensuite

  • A main-floor den that’s ideal for a home office or library nook

  • 2.5 bathrooms

  • A fully finished basement rec room (think gym, media room, or just a place to put the Peloton that isn’t your bedroom)

  • And two outdoor patios, both south-facing, one off the main floor and one off the upper level, offering privacy, sun, and greenbelt views.

Add in fresh paint, new carpets, and custom blinds throughout—and you get a home that doesn’t need your immediate attention. Just your presence.

The Lifestyle? Quiet, Elevated, Effortless.

This is an 18+ building made of concrete and steel, which means real privacy and quiet. It’s not a high-rise. It’s not packed with units. It feels more like a private residence than a complex.

You’re steps from the Currents of Windermere—groceries, wine, restaurants, boutique fitness, banking, trails. You can be everywhere you need to be without crossing the city.

And when you're home, you’re not thinking about mowing lawns or shoveling driveways. You’re sitting on your patio with a coffee or glass of wine, soaking in the sun, overlooking trees—not rooftops or roads.

Noteworthy: The Low Condo Fees

With almost 2000 sqft of living space, this condo offers low condo fees at $865.98/month. And those fees include your heat and water, along with professional management, reserve fund contributions, snow removal, landscaping, common insurance, and access to a well-run, quiet, and secure building.

More importantly, it’s the only property on the market that gives you this lifestyle, with these features, at this price point.

So, Who’s This For?

It’s not for everyone. It’s not supposed to be.

This is for the person who’s over the grind of maintenance and clutter.
Who wants function, not fluff.
Space, not sprawl.
Privacy, not pretence.

It’s for someone who wants a home that supports the way they live now, with room to evolve.

Listed at $574,900

#104, 1350 Windermere Way SW

You’re not giving up anything here.
You’re just gaining more of what matters.

A Private Oasis in Beauridge: 5301 56 Avenue, Beaumont

💰 Listed at $534,900 | 1,547.86 sq. ft. above grade + 1351sq. ft. below
📍 4 bedrooms | 4 bathrooms | Quiet cul-de-sac | Southeast-facing pie lot

Where Space, Style, and Serenity Meet

Some homes feel like they were meant for family. For connection. For slowing down just enough to appreciate where you are, and who you’re with. 5301 56 Avenue is one of those homes.

Tucked into a quiet cul-de-sac in the sought-after community of Beauridge in Beaumont, this stunning two-storey offers a rare blend of elegance, comfort, and privacy. With over 2,800 sq. ft. of finished living space and a Southeast-facing, pie-shaped backyard that rivals anything on the market, this property isn’t just a place to live—it’s a place to grow.

Welcome to Beauridge

Nestled in the heart of Beaumont, Beauridge is a community that feels grounded and welcoming. Known for its quiet streets, mature trees, and strong sense of community, it’s the kind of place where neighbours still wave hello, and where kids can ride their bikes to school.

Here, you’re just minutes from parks, playgrounds, walking trails, and all the essentials—from grocery stores and coffee shops to excellent schools and recreation centres. Beauridge offers the ease of small-town living with the convenience of being just a short drive to southeast Edmonton. It’s no wonder so many families choose to put down roots here.

Thoughtfully Upgraded, Lovingly Maintained

What makes 5301 56 Avenue stand out isn’t just its location—it’s the attention to detail. This is a home that’s been continually improved over the years, both aesthetically and behind the scenes.

🛠️ Recent updates include:
✔️ Newer shingles
✔️ Upgraded electrical panel
✔️ High-efficiency furnace
✔️ Tankless hot water system
✔️ Select window replacements
✔️ Newer deck and fencing
✔️ Fresh carpet in the basement

These are the kinds of upgrades you don’t see in the listing photos but feel in day-to-day living—quiet systems, low maintenance, peace of mind.

Inside: A Layout That Works for Real Life

As you walk through the front door, you’re immediately welcomed into a warm, functional main floor. Hardwood floors flow through a bright living room with gas fireplace and into the dining area, which features updated lighting and backyard views.

The renovated kitchen includes a center island, updated cabinetry, and a large picture window that frames the view of your own backyard oasis. A garden door leads directly to the deck, where you’ll want to spend every warm morning and quiet evening.

Upstairs: Your Private Retreat

The upper level is where the home really shines. The primary bedroom is a true retreat, complete with a gas fireplace, spa-inspired ensuite (soaker tub, double sinks, and a walk-in tiled shower), and oversized walk-in closets that actually live up to their name.

Two more bedrooms and an updated four-piece bathroom complete the upper level—each room offering natural light and comfort.

Flexible Living Spaces, Inside and Out

On the mid-level, you’ll find a bright and airy family room and flex/games area, along with a convenient two-piece bathroom. Whether you need a space for movie nights, homework zones, or work-from-home life, it’s ready for whatever your days require.

Downstairs, the fully finished basement offers brand-new carpet, a fourth bedroom with its own 3-piece ensuite, a den that can double as an office or guest space, and a second living room that could easily become a rec room, gym, or play space.

The Backyard: Your Private Escape

But what truly sets this home apart is the lot. A Southeast-facing pie lot in a cul-de-sac is rare enough—but this one is also beautifully landscaped with mature trees, shrubs, and perennial gardens.

Whether you’re hosting friends under the gazebo, letting the kids run free, or just sipping your morning coffee on the deck with the sun on your face, this backyard offers real peace and privacy—something that’s hard to find and even harder to leave behind.

A Home That Feels Like Home

5301 56 Avenue is one of those homes that’s hard to capture in photos or even in words—because its value goes beyond square footage or finishings. It’s in the feeling you get when you walk through the front door. The way the light hits the hardwood. The quiet of the cul-de-sac. The care in every detail.

If you’ve been looking for a home with substance—where the layout makes sense, the upgrades have been done right, and the community feels like it fits—this just might be the one.

$349,000 | 4 Beds | 2 Baths | In-Law Suite | Garden Sanctuary | Mechanic’s Garage

Not every home is just a structure.
The special ones carry stories, intention, and soul—you feel it the moment you walk in.

And it’s already thriving.

This isn’t just a backyard—it’s a return to what matters.
If you’ve been waiting for a space that nurtures both you and the world around you, this is it.

Inside or out, this home isn’t trying to be trendy. It’s just solid, soulful, and ready for someone to love it like the last people did.
