277 Fortress Manor SW

A rare opportunity to own an iconic Calgary mansion, on almost 1.5 acres of ideally situated land facing the Rockies. This truly spectacular home was dismantled and reassembled in the early 80's. The foundation and basement were built new, with all new electrical, plumbing, etc. and steel beams were added for enhanced structural reinforcement. With over 10,000sf of luxurious living space, every detail in this masterpiece was carefully crafted to the highest standards. For entertainers, there is little to be desired. The gated, estate entrance, leads you to a stunning circular drive-through then onto an abundance off on-site parking. Upon entering the home, your guests will be greeted by high, beamed ceilings, a huge gourmet kitchen and an opulent dining room; plus a butler's pantry and built-in coffee station. Heading downstairs you'll find a dedicated bar/lounge, a huge great-room as well as a stately billiards room. The basement also includes a stunning amount of storage. The 2nd floor features a generous primary retreat with mountain views, fireplace and a walk-in closet which showcases exceptional bookmatched rosewood. The same floor hosts 2 other impressive bedroom suites, plus 2 more bedrooms joined by a jack-and-jill ensuite. The 3rd floor is an incredible living space for staff, caregivers or extended family; with 2 bedrooms, living room, dining room, kitchen, office and spectacular views, your guests will want for nothing. All floors are connected by stairwells and a rigorously maintained elevator. The property also features large front and side porches with cedar ceilings, a rear courtyard, a fountain with seating area and an impressive 3 car, heated, garage with plenty of new cabinetry and a hydraulic/electric vehicle hoist. Also included is a greenhouse and a detached, modular shed with rollup door. Additionally, the home's internet is serviced by fibre optics.
