Basic starter home? This one missed the memo. Built in Starling Landing's final phase, this sun-filled END UNIT delivers affordable luxury with a few extra boxes checked: 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, NEW A/C and a bonus office/flex area that keeps work out of your bedroom. The kitchen understood the assignment: modern finishes, a pantry and an eating bar for coffee, company or dinner straight from the takeout bag. A spacious entry/mudroom handles the daily drop zone, while in-home laundry and an attached double garage with room for two vehicles plus storage keep life practical. Add a gas BBQ hookup and low condo fees, and the wish list starts looking suspiciously complete. Parks, trails, the wetlands of Lois Hole Provincial Park and Glendale Golf Club are nearby, with easy access to Anthony Henday, St. Albert and Edmonton amenities. First purchase, next investment or a downsize without the downgrade? Less compromise. More keys-to-your-own-place energy.
