31 Leaside Crescent — Sylvan Lake, Alberta

Mornings start with espresso from the built-in Bosch in the butler's pantry. Evenings end in the swim spa or around the fire table. This 5-bed, 3-full and 2-half bath two-storey in Sylvan Lake's Lakeway Landing backs onto a city park on a 7,098-square-foot lot, with over 5,100 square feet of living space and high ceilings throughout. The kitchen does the heavy lifting: two sinks, an induction cooktop, two ovens, and a central island seating six, under high-gloss Italian cabinetry. The butler's pantry adds a second sink and beverage fridge. A double-sided fireplace connects the living room and sun room. A private dining room and a main floor office round out the level. The drive-through triple garage has 12-foot ceilings, a hot and cold water sink, radiant heat, and central air. A salt water softener, whole-home Sonos, monitored security with cameras, a 10-year roof warranty, and mostly replaced sealed windows keep the systems current. Upstairs, the primary suite takes the entire east side of the floor, tucked away and private, with its own double-sided gas fireplace, a 200-square-foot walk-in closet, and laundry next door. The 5-piece ensuite has a freestanding soaker tub, a double vanity, and a walk-through double shower. Three more bedrooms (two with built-in desks) and a family room with its own fireplace complete the floor. Downstairs, the finished basement adds a rec room with a wet bar, a gym, and a fifth bedroom. Outside, a 17-foot swim spa and covered deck under a pergola keep the backyard in use three seasons, with a gas line for the fire table. Built-in irrigation and zero-maintenance vinyl fencing mean less upkeep, more use. Walking distance to Gulls Baseball, in Lakeway Landing, Sylvan Lake, Alberta. (id:63357)
