This castle-like home is something out of a fairy tale with six spiral staircases, a lookout tower, courtyards and its own bridge.
It’s hard to look at this Calgary castle and see it as anything else, but believe it or not, this home was once a humble bungalow. Construction on the property first began in 1946 when the home was built as a bungalow. Then in 1982, new construction began to turn it into the castle it is today, complete with its own lookout tower.
In 2018, the castle became home to a collective gallery, where artists and creators could rent one of the seven studio spaces inside. The gallery also featured drawing sessions with live music, spoken word poetry performances and an art installation. In 2022, the home was bought by the current owners, who turned the castle into a successful Airbnb.Channel your inner Belle in the multi-floor library, sing to birds in the spacious courtyards or host friends in the dance hall/games room.
The upper floor features the primary bedroom suite outfitted with ample closet space, a luxurious five-piece ensuite and a sunlit sitting room in the tower. On the main floor are two additional bedrooms and a grand dining room designed for royal dinners before retiring to the living room and its gas fireplace. The kitchen is well equipped to handle any lavish meal preparations, including clever cabinet storage that drops down from the bottom.
When it’s time to entertain guests, head downstairs to the basement. The lower level boasts a parquet dance floor, pool table and wet bar, not to mention a recreation room with a fireplace, a workshop and a cozy seating area. With the red accents, gold-toned wood and timeless feel to the home, it’s a castle that blends modern amenities with medieval appeal. As a final bonus, all the decor and furniture are included in the sale.The ample bedrooms and roomy space make the home ideal for growing families or for large-scale entertainment with friends and family. It’s also located near shopping, dining and retail options, as well as plenty of walking trails.
