You’re the king of the castle! And you are right next door to Kananaskis so your 4 acre realm feels like it stretches all the way to Banff! Highlands Ests lives up to its name – giving you a parklike estate with a 1000-acre view of valleys, foothills, forests and Moose Mtn. And a fairytale castle of a home with country zing – high on the hilltop flooded with sunshine all year round, a ‘moat’ of trees, sunny parklike forests where moose and deer meander, and a spacious and groomed yard framed by towering aspens with leafy crowns. The living is easy in your great outdoors. Flagstone slate patios and stairs are enhanced by embedded lights which all twinkle at night to match the stars above. The wrap-round decking with bamboo shades is a 3-seasons room, a perfect place from early morning to late at night, including meals – cook up that Alberta on a super BBQ built into a stone feature wall! An airy balcony hangs over the valley. You may want to live outdoors! But when you do come inside this wonderful home, a castle’s ambience enfolds you! Slate and antique fir plank floors, stone and timber frame accents, vaulted ceilings, an impressive fireplace that can heat the whole home, inlaid stones accenting the floor flowing around the fireplace, a multitude of windows all with transom toppers, stunning built-ins, in rooms that make everyday living feel rich and fulfilled. Meticulous attention to building and finishing gives this warm and genial home all kinds of substance and eclectic charm. The welcoming foyer holds a tallboy armoire for coats, a French door keeps winter’s cool air in the foyer. Walls of glass makes the splendid living room feel surrounded by the woods. A vaulted wood ceiling crowns a serene sunroom where you can unwind in the sun’s warmth. The sumptuous kitchen features flowing granite counters, satiny wood cabinets plus a huge pantry room, stunning stone accents on the dramatic chef’s nook with its gas stove. The open dining room is set before big windows overlooking the deck and sunroom, creating a gracious country charm. The sunny bedroom on this level features its own 3-piece ensuite bath with rich slate flooring and shower finishing. Upstairs, the tranquil master bedroom opens to that airy balcony - a private retreat for the ‘king and queen’! The 4-piece ensuite is a luxurious bath with slate accents, 2 sinks, beautiful cabinetry. There is a great kids’ bedroom with a tropical hut right in the midst, and lots of room for beds and desks and stuff! An opulent 4-piece bath completes the upper level. The developed walkout basement features in-floor heat to keep the bright family room, peaceful bedroom and 3-piece bath all warm and comfortable. The double attached garage offers in-floor heat. There’s also a great studio/workshop building, sitting like a woodcutter’s cottage under the trees. Ground level is a bright workshop with generator (hooked up to run household appliances and well), upstairs is a great man cave! And there is much, much more to this superior home and property!! You need to see it!
