Cherished by the same owners for over 50 years, this exceptional Elbow Park residence was designed and built in 1965 by renowned Calgary architect Wolfgang Wenzel as his own personal home â and has never flooded.A custom wood and stained-glass front door opens into a gracious center-hall plan. Beyond elegant wood-and-glass French doors, the spacious living room is anchored by a wood-burning fireplace. A separate dining room off the kitchen offers generous storage and ample space for a large table and buffet â perfect for entertaining.The updated kitchen is a chef's dream, featuring granite countertops, custom wood cabinetry, and high-end stainless appliances including a Wolf microwave, a brand-new fridge, a built-in Miele coffee machine, and a premium stove with hood fan. The sunny breakfast nook sits beside a second wood-burning brick fireplace in the adjoining family room, both overlooking the beautifully landscaped, south-facing backyard and park beyond.
