Acadia is a neighbourhood in the southeast quadrant of Calgary, Alberta. The area is bounded on the west by Macleod Trail, on the east by the Bow River, on the north by Heritage Drive and on the south by Southland Drive.
The land was annexed to the City of Calgary in 1956, and Acadia was established in 1960.
The neighbourhood’s main street is Fairmount Drive, and many of the area’s businesses cluster along the street. The area also contains Lord Beaverbrook High School, the city’s largest high school.
Welcome to 427 96 Ave. S.E. in the heart of Acadia. This isn’t just a "refresh" or a "flip"—this is a down-to-the-studs rebuild of a classic, executed with a level of quality that genuinely moves the needle. From the moment you pull up, the curb appeal grabs your attention – brand-new stucco and stone make it crisp and clean, all new exposed aggregate concrete that goes from the front sidewalk, down the side, and into a private covered rear patio. Even the garage got the memo, featuring a resurfaced floor and a gas rough-in ready for your heater before next winter hits. Inside, and the "new house smell" is there. The main floor is anchored by rich hardwood and a wide open floor plan. The kitchen is the focal point, with high-gloss cabinetry, premium granite countertops, and a large island designed for those like to entertain. Upstairs, the primary suite is tremendous, featuring a walk-in closet and an ensuite that feels like a boutique hotel with it’s glass-enclosed shower, free-standing soaker tub, dual vanities, and in-floor heat. Down on the third level you’ll find a dedicated bedroom and gym space with its own separate entrance from the backyard, making it an ideal setup for a home office or a long-term guest. The lower level provides a cozy family room (which easily doubles as a fourth bedroom) and a high-end laundry suite. The lower-level bath is just as detailed as the main and ensuite, where you’ll find a custom steam shower and more in-floor heat, ensuring the basement feels just as premium as the rest of the house. With over 2000 square feet of total living space, a super sunny south backyard, and easy access in and out of the community, this one is a spectacular find.
