Do you ever wish your parents only had two kids instead of three? Or maybe even stopped after one?? Welcome to my world. Here we are again, selling one of my sister's many houses because she's the one percent. It's a four bed, two bath built in the seventies in The Former Cheese Capital Of Western Canada-Bashaw, Alberta. They remodelled the bathroom because nothing is luxurious enough for her, and then they installed granite because she likes the way the glass clinks on it when she's mixing paralyzers. They stripped the carpets and sanded the original hardwood and sealed them again, which I actually agree with. It's an abomination to cover hardwood. They slammed a couple of rooms in the basement for when I slept over, which was never. The current tenants finished the single car garage into a man cave. The yard is fenced and there's a pea rock parking pad at the back, and the neighbour on the corner is an actual Legend.

Do you like Character homes as much as I do? How about big yards on double lots? How about a price tag that will still allow you to do the things you enjoy in life without having to sell a kidney? Then you need to come see this place in Clive! This home was renovated within the last ten years affording you the comforts of today, with bones from a time when premium materials were plentiful and affordable. At just under 800 square feet on the main floor this home is ideal for best friends, an older couple, or a single who just doesn't want to spend all their free time doing maintenance on space they never use anyways. The yard is nicely sloped, keeping the water out and away from the home (Hence why that basement is still in the superb condition it's in. While you're down there, notice how pretty the new water heater is. Truly, the Beyoncé of water heaters). The garage is primed to be finished however you like (She-Shed? ManCave?), and don't be surprised if you buy this and I show up from time to time for a fire because that fire pit area is Dynamite with a capital D!

It's the perfect time for a move to the country! Pristine 1.1 acres with stunning raised bungalow in popular Johnson's Beach subdivision. A paved commute leads to your private tree-lined drive and 30'x36' heated garage. Once home, relaxing comes easy with a BBQ on the composite deck, a nap in the charming bunkhouse, or some me-time in the greenhouse. A screen room provides sheltered outdoor living, with natural gas for a fire-table and lots of room to visit or watch a game on satellite TV. Style meets comfort in the open-concept living space. Gorgeous 18' tongue and groove ceilings and walls of windows create an airy beach-house feel in the summer, and keep the house cheerful and bright in the winter. The gourmet kitchen inspires with a suite of Frigidaire Professional appliances, and even the magazine-worthy bathroom, with clawfoot tub and crystal chandelier, reminds you to slow down and enjoy the moment! Rest is assured in the primary bedroom, with vaulted ceiling, transom windows and built-in wardrobe. A second bedroom and laundry room are also conveniently located on the main floor. Downstairs continues to impress, with a darkened media room, pool table, 2 bright bedrooms, stylish second bathroom, and an indulgent infrared sauna. You'll find tremendous value in the insulated interior walls for soundproofing, whole-home reverse osmosis water system, Rinnai tankless water heater, automated underground sprinkler system and so much more. This lifestyle property will have wide appeal, from empty-nesters to urban professionals. It can be a four-season primary home, or a part-time retreat. Johnson's Beach subdivision is located 30 minutes east of Ponoka and 60 minutes south-east of Edmonton. Viewings are underway; call now for yours!

Over 2650 square feet (1352=Main Floor) of Bada%$ Bungalow in Beautiful Bashaw, Alberta, By Buffalo Lake. Well suited for a family home, and then eventually a retirement home, and then after that it's just a short walk across the street to the Bashaw Meadows long term care facility. The home is fully finished and has a classy open floor plan with a great bay window in the front room. Stainless appliances in the kitchen with a deck access facing the southern sun. Large bedrooms, a master ensuite and walk-in closet, attached garage and a fenced yard for the kids to play in while you crush mimosas on the oversized deck. There is in-floor heating in the basement, a great big water heater so that everyone can shower at the same time (Separately, ya animals!). A healthy sized family room and a games/workout area with office space. The spot is just down the block from the famed Bashaw Nature trails, where there are no thru-roads, and therefore, no traffic passing through. Making for a nice quiet neighbourhood when the seniors aren't having keg parties.
