Property Description

Where the Forest Becomes Your Backyard.

Some homes are measured by their square footage. This one is defined by the lifestyle it offers. Backing directly onto a protected environmental reserve in Riviera,this exceptional Jayman-built Stoneleigh combines remarkable privacy,generous family living,and an irreplaceable natural setting where birdsong replaces backyard neighbours and every season brings breathtaking views.

Designed with families in mind,this spacious home offers four bedrooms,three distinct living areas,and room proportions rarely found in newer homes. At its heart is a chef-inspired kitchen featuring granite countertops,premium KitchenAid stainless steel appliances including a gas cooktop and built-in wall oven,a peninsula with raised eating bar,centre island,abundant cabinetry,and an oversized walk-in pantry. The adjoining dining area,highlighted by a custom shiplap feature wall,flows seamlessly into the inviting great room where expansive windows frame the forest and a cozy gas fireplace creates the perfect gathering place. A functional mudroom keeps busy family life organized.

Step outside onto the expansive Trex deck with pergola and experience what truly sets this property apart. Overlooking the protected reserve,the backyard feels like a private retreat where morning coffee,evening entertaining,and local wildlife become part of everyday living. Pre-wired for a future hot tub,this outdoor sanctuary offers endless possibilities for relaxation.

Upstairs features three spacious bedrooms,a large bonus room,and a conveniently located laundry room. The privately positioned primary suite offers a luxurious escape with heated ensuite floors,a deep soaker tub,separate tiled shower,dual vanities,and separate walk-in closets. The professionally finished lower level adds an additional bedroom,a flex room,a full bathroom,an expansive family room with an elegant electric fireplace,and abundant storage—ideal for guests,teenagers,multigenerational living,or a home gym.

Quality finishes include rich hardwood flooring,granite throughout,dual furnaces,central air conditioning,a heated garage with a Reznor gas heater,Hardie Board exterior,and numerous thoughtful upgrades.

Located along the Bow River in one of Cochrane's most sought-after communities,Riviera offers scenic pathways,parks,playgrounds,and convenient access to downtown Cochrane,Calgary,and the Rocky Mountains.

A rare opportunity where exceptional design,outstanding privacy,and nature come together to create a truly extraordinary place to call home.

Shuvolaxmi Dutta

Highly recommend! An absolute pleasure to work with. We recently purchased our beautiful new home in Calgary with the help of Viren and we couldn’t be happier with the entire experience. From the very beginning, he truly listened to our specific needs, likes, and dislikes. He understood exactly what we were looking for in a family home and didn’t recommend us to see anything that didn’t align with our vision. He was very respectful of our budget and helped us find excellent options within our range without ever making us feel pressured. He never rushed us — even when we took time to think things through, he was patient and supportive every step of the way. What really stood out was how he went above and beyond during the final walkthrough. He took care of a few issues that came up and made sure everything was properly addressed before closing. It gave us so much peace of mind. Most importantly, working with him felt like searching for a home with a close family friend. His warmth, honesty, and genuine care made, what could have been a stressful process, truly enjoyable. We are so grateful for his help in finding our perfect family home and would recommend him to anyone without hesitation! Thank you again Viren!

We recently worked with Viren to purchase a rental property, and the experience was excellent from start to finish. Buying a home can be stressful, but Viren made the entire process smooth and straightforward. He was knowledgeable, responsive, and always available to answer our questions. We never felt pressured and always felt that he had our best interests in mind. His guidance throughout the search, negotiations, and closing process was invaluable, and thanks to his hard work, we found the perfect property. I would highly recommend Viren to anyone looking to buy or sell a home. Thank you for making what could have been a stressful experience such a positive one! - We will definitely be in-touch when we're in the market for another property.

I am a Alberta certified home inspector for a top home inspection company and have had the pleasure to work with Virin on a few occasions, his professional attitude and knowledge of the space is exceptional and should be a bar set by all realtors to match. It was a pleasure and I look forward to a long professional relationship with him and his company in the future. Thanks for being so professional and prompt with all requests.
