The residence
Bel-Aire is one of Calgary's quietest addresses: a handful of streets tucked between Elbow Drive and the fairways of the Calgary Golf & Country Club, where mature spruce and generous lots keep every home to itself. Here, a Paul Lavoie-designed bungalow, rebuilt from the ground up in 2014, brings 12-foot ceilings, heated marble floors and a lower level made for golf, film and wine.
Set on a third-of-an-acre lot in Bel-Aire, one of Calgary's most private inner-city enclaves beside the Calgary Golf & Country Club, this custom bungalow was reimagined from the ground up and completed in 2014 with award-winning designer Paul Lavoie. Built on an ICF foundation with globally sourced materials and a stone-and-stucco exterior, it offers almost 4,300 sq ft above grade plus a fully finished lower level, with five bedrooms and seven bathrooms across two levels.
The main floor is built for scale and light: 12-foot ceilings, heated Crema Marfil marble, rich hardwood, and formal dining, living and family rooms that open generously to one another. The chef's kitchen anchors it all, with a large island, a Wolf gas range and a new (2025) Miele refrigerator/freezer, alongside a breakfast nook and a main-floor office.
The owner's retreat is a true suite, with a fireplace, a large walk-in closet and an 11-piece spa-style ensuite finished in marble around a freestanding tub. A private elevator serves every level of the home.
Downstairs is made for entertaining: a golf simulator, music room, temperature-controlled wine cellar, home theatre and games room, plus two more bedrooms. Outside, a landscaped backyard with mature spruce trees, an outdoor fireplace and a private courtyard. The heated double garage fits up to four vehicles with a lift, with room for four more on the driveway.
Downtown is minutes away, as are the Calgary Golf & Country Club and the Glencoe Club, with the shops of Britannia, Chinook Centre and the Elbow River pathways all close by.

Worth knowing
Just a few streets and a few hundred residents, Bel-Aire is one of the city's smallest residential communities, which is a big part of its privacy.
The Calgary Golf & Country Club was founded in 1897 and has played on its Elbow River site, right beside Bel-Aire, for more than a century.
Many Bel-Aire parcels run a quarter to a third of an acre, rare for a community this close to downtown.
Tucked off Elbow Drive, Bel-Aire's curving streets lead nowhere but home, so the cars you see belong to neighbours.
Bel-Aire consistently ranks with Calgary's highest-assessed neighbourhoods, alongside Mount Royal and Eagle Ridge.
The community was laid out in the 1960s, and many of its original homes have since been rebuilt as custom estates, like this one.
Just north, Britannia Plaza opened in the 1950s as one of Calgary's first neighbourhood shopping centres, and is now home to cafés, restaurants and a grocer.
Calgary's largest shopping centre sits a short drive east on Macleod Trail.
Sandy Beach and the Elbow River pathways are just north-west, and the Glenmore Reservoir, its pathways and Heritage Park are a short drive south-west.
The Glencoe Club is a short drive north on Elbow Drive, and Rockyview General Hospital is about five minutes away.

Request a private showingThe setting
Bel-Aire is one of Calgary's smallest and most private communities: a few quiet streets of large, treed lots set between Elbow Drive and the Calgary Golf & Country Club. With little through-traffic and homes set well back from the street, it feels a world away from the city that surrounds it.
From Bel-Aire Drive, Britannia Plaza's cafés and shops are a few minutes north, Chinook Centre is a short drive east, and the Glencoe Club, Sandy Beach and the Elbow River pathways are all close. The Glenmore Reservoir and Heritage Park lie to the south-west, and downtown is about fifteen minutes by car.
