Renovated 3BR Character Home in the heart of Calgary

Welcome to Bridgeland Cozy Corner!

You will love this amazing home located in one of Calgary's oldest and most charismatic neighborhoods which was founded in the 1880's.

Bridgeland is home to some of Calgary's best restaurants, food markets, retail shopping and is walking distance to the Zoo, Telus Spark, BMO Center, the Saddledome, Stampede Park, Studio Bell, Telus Convention Center, Calgary's award winning Public Library, Princes Island Park, Bow River Pathway and many more venues that most Calgarians have to drive to.

The home was built in the 1940's and has been lovingly renovated to its current state. The home has a very relaxed vibe with lots of natural light flowing in plus great views of downtown Calgary. Enjoy the 2 living rooms (upstairs & downstairs), 3 bedrooms with comfortable queen mattresses, deep soaker tubs in both bathrooms, fully stocked gourmet kitchen with new stainless steel appliances, full sized boot room for bikes, backpacks, skis and snowboards, a dedicated office space including an adjustable smart desk and a printer, high speed fiber internet, a play area for kids and laundry area with full sized washer/dryer and ironing board.

Why stare at the inside of your 4 walls while at a condo, apartment or hotel? Enjoy your own large outdoor space on this corner lot with many interesting perennials, shrubs, flowers, a Gala apple tree, bbq, outdoor table/seating and great views of downtown.

Due to the central location of the home, you are 15 minutes from the airport, 5 minutes from Deerfoot Trail, the main north/south corridor in Alberta and 5 minutes to16th Ave (Trans Canada Hwy) the main east/west corridor in Canada. Getting around town from Bridgeland is easy by foot, bike or vehicle.

We are very excited to share our home with travelers from around the world. We have travelled extensively and we believe we have a great spot for our guests to use as a home base in their exploration of Calgary, Banff and beyond.

Such a wonderful home for our girls weekend in Calgary. The home was spotless upon arrival with comfortable living areas and bedrooms. The kitchen had everything we needed and more. We enjoyed the authentic Canadian snacks that were provided by our gracious hosts, Rob and Linh. Communication was excellent as well as easy instructions to access the house. One huge blessing was that after a good snowfall on Friday night, we woke up to the sidewalks and driveway being scooped for us! Thank you!!

Wonderful hospitality

We were lucky to have this home as our base over Christmas and New Years. It was great for our extended family get together as it is centrally located, allowing us to meet family spread across the city as well as getting easily to the mountains or downtown. It is very clean, has a well appointed kitchen and very comfortable mattresses and pillows, and the hosts were exceptional. They went out of their way to decorate and had a much appreciated basket of goodies for us to start off our vacation. Very attentive hosts!
