The property also includes an attached garage with mezzanine for extra storage.
And then there’s the lifestyle. Bowness has its own distinct, small-town feel right in the city. Running, walking, and biking trails are just steps away from your door, and you go cross-country skiing throughout the winter. Here, you have abundant local wildlife right outside, you can walk to Bowness Park and the river pathways, and you’re just a short drive from the Calgary Farmers’ Market West, excellent local shops, and restaurants.
