Royal Oak
The Royal Oak community is located in northwest Calgary and was established in 1989. The community has grown to over 17,000 residents over the years consisting of three homeowner associations and one community association (RRROCA).
The community landscape is unique with several environmental sensitive wetland ponds throughout the area. The local Royal Oak school received an award from Ducks Unlimited for the special education program pertaining to wetlands.

Description
Imagine coming home to a sanctuary that offers breathtaking ravine and mountain views while providing every amenity a growing family could desire. Step inside, and those views become the backdrop to an impeccably designed home that invites you to live, gather, and create memories. Extensive hardwood floors lead you through an inviting layout designed for modern family living. The family room immediately draws you in with its impressive 18-foot windows and cozy fireplace, creating a space that balances openness with warmth. Built-in shelving adds both function and character to this welcoming gathering space. The kitchen is a true showstopper, having undergone a significant renovation. A massive granite island becomes the natural centrepiece, perfect for casual meals or entertaining. Rich raised-panel cabinets, an elegant subway tile backsplash, and carefully placed stainless steel appliances speak to both form and function. The walk-through pantry – finished with cherry cabinets and pull-outs – connects seamlessly to a mudroom with custom storage. Upstairs, three bedrooms offer comfortable living. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a large window overlooking the ravine with views that never grow old.
