It's one of Calgary’s most prestigious and desirable buildings. The pet-friendly 'Esquire' in the popular University District is the first community in Alberta to achieve ‘Leadership in Energy and Environmental Design for Neighborhood Development’ (LEED ND) Platinum certification - the highest level of LEED certification. This stunning top floor unit with its 9 foot ceilings and pearl color palette offers 2 bedrooms + den/flex room, 2 full bathrooms, high end appliances including an integrated dishwasher & Fisher-Paykel refrigerator and a gas range, along with beautiful tile and luxury vinyl floors, sleek quartz counters in the kitchen and bathrooms, and a natural gas line on the oversized, covered balcony. The south-facing balcony is accessed by sliding doors in the living room and primary bedroom and it offers an amazing view of the meticulously landscaped central courtyard with its pergola-covered BBQ and entertainment area, and a manicured lawn that’s perfect for picnics, croquet or just catching some rays in the summer sun. The Esquire building itself is second to none with terrific amenities for you and your furry friends. The 24/7 gym provides a great view of the courtyard during your work out and contains enough bikes for a spin class. In the lower level there's a pet spa, wood work shop, bike storage room and bike tune-up room - all near the titled underground parking stall. This condo also includes TWO separate storage lockers on the same floor as the main unit. Just a short walk away is an urban dog park, Central Commons Park, neighborhood restaurants, retail stores, bank, grocery, a daycare and the newly opened Cineplex VIP theatre. There’s more shopping at nearby Market Mall. The University of Calgary, Children's and Foothills Hospitals, transit and C-train are close, and proximity to major thoroughfares adds another commuting option, or escape from the city.
