About 31 Chapala Close Se
A rare, mature, beautifully landscaped lot in one of Chaparral's most private settings, this original-owner home offers 2,907 sq ft above grade plus a fully finished basement, offering over 4,100 sq ft of total developed living space - with 5 bedrooms (a 6th is easily possible using the top-level office). Curb appeal starts the moment you arrive: a perfectly landscaped front yard, custom lit house number and a private front porch on a wonderfully quiet street. The oversized driveway fits 3 vehicles, plus a basketball hoop and room to play, ideal for families and visitors alike. Inside, vaulted ceilings, LVP flooring and an open-concept layout let natural light pour through, with clear sightlines straight back to the gorgeous, south-facing backyard. The renovated kitchen features rich walnut cabinetry, granite counters, stainless appliances, a gas stove, and a walk-through pantry leading to a big mud room and oversized double garage. The adjoining deck overlooks the private backyard, a wonderful spot to unwind. The living room's triple-sided gas fireplace anchors a warm, functional main level, complete with a convenient 2-piece bath positioned between the main living area and mud room, perfect after a day at the lake or on the driveway court. Upstairs, an open staircase leads to a bonus room, two generous bedrooms and a flexible office (easily could become a 4th upper bedroom), plus laundry with a sink. The primary retreat offers its own triple-sided fireplace, a renovated spa-like ensuite, walk-in closet and lovely backyard views. The finished basement offers a private, separate lower-level retreat: a flex space suited to a gym, games room, or media area, plus two similarly sized bedrooms, each with a walk-in closet and their own sink, sharing a 4-piece bath, ideal for teens who each want their own space, along with a second laundry hookup. Outside, the backyard is a true showpiece: mature gardens and trees, a pergola, patio, lighting, outdoor speakers, a gas BBQ line, and a lovely shed with power (easily a playhouse). Additional features include irrigation, newer fascia and roof shingles, two furnaces, A/C, a tankless hot water tank, water softener and designer exterior lighting. Enjoy year-round lake access and the lifestyle that makes Chaparral one of Calgary's most desirable communities: swimming, skating, pathways, parks, schools, and shopping nearby. Downtown and the airport are each about 30 minutes away, Costco is 15 minutes, Blue Devil Golf is just down the hill, and Fish Creek Park and the WOOF Willow off-leash dog park are minutes from your door.
