Plus, you have the rare opportunity to also purchase the lot directly next door.

Inside, the home features a smart, functional layout that maximizes its incredible surroundings.

The property also includes an attached garage with mezzanine for extra storage.
And then there’s the lifestyle. Bowness has its own distinct, small-town feel right in the city. Running, walking, and biking trails are just steps away from your door, and you go cross-country skiing throughout the winter.
