7022 17 Avenue N — Coleman, Alberta

Originally built in the 1950s, this Coleman home was taken back to the studs and thoughtfully rebuilt from the inside out. Behind its character is the kind of work you rarely get to see in a finished home: new plumbing, electrical, HVAC, insulation, furnace, hot water tank, windows, siding, drywall and flooring, along with a completely renewed kitchen and bathrooms. The result is a home that carries the charm of an established mountain neighbourhood without asking you to take on someone else’s renovation. Inside, the main floor feels simple and intentional. Natural light moves through the new windows, the kitchen is clean and current, and the open layout makes everyday living feel easy. Upstairs, vaulted ceilings and natural wood details bring warmth to the bedrooms and bonus space, giving the upper level a character all its own. With three bedrooms, one and a half bathrooms and 1,150 square feet, every part of the home feels considered rather than excessive. Outside, the lot and a half gives you something equally valuable in Coleman: room to make the property your own. Keep the existing 19' x 21' shed, create a garden and outdoor gathering space, or look at what the property could become over time. And then there’s the location. Walk into downtown Coleman, head to the local cafe or swimming hole, grab your bike, fishing rod or hiking boots and spend the day outside. This is a home that makes sense for someone who wants to live in the mountains full time, and just as easily for someone looking for a Crowsnest Pass escape they can arrive at on Friday and immediately start enjoying.
