Inside a Fully Upgraded Auburn Bay Walkout on a Pie-Shaped Lot
What makes this Auburn Bay walkout home stand out? This walkout sits on a rare pie-shaped lot in a quiet cul-de-sac, with a fully upgraded kitchen, new mechanical systems, and a custom outdoor living space, all inside one of Calgary's most desirable lake communities.
Most walkout homes in Auburn Bay come with a tradeoff somewhere. A great lot but a dated kitchen. Updated finishes but an aging furnace waiting to fail the year after you move in. This one doesn't ask you to pick. It's a pie-shaped corner lot on a quiet cul-de-sac, a backyard built for all four seasons, and a mechanical system that's already been replaced from top to bottom.
If you're searching for a walkout home on a huge lot in Auburn Bay, Calgary, here's what's inside, what's been upgraded, and why the location matters as much as the house.
A Kitchen Built Around How People Like to Cook and Gather
The main floor is open concept, and the kitchen is the reason to walk through the door. Two-toned cabinetry pairs timeless white perimeter cabinets with a contrasting dark island, and the island seats guests with raised seating rather than tucking them off to the side. A walkthrough pantry connects straight from the garage to the kitchen, so groceries go from the trunk to the shelf without crossing the whole house.
Off the main living space, a built-in desk in the back hall gives you a real spot for all the stuff that would normally gather on your kitchen counter, or place for homework, and a 2-piece bathroom rounds out the main floor. The flooring throughout was replaced in January 2023 with premium vinyl plank.
Upstairs: A Primary Suite With Room to Actually Use
Three bedrooms sit upstairs, including a bonus room option for buyers who want a second living space instead of a third bedroom. The primary suite is sized for a king bed, dressers, and a sitting area, not just a bed frame pushed against the wall. The ensuite includes a soaker tub, his-and-her sinks, and a separate shower, and the walk-in closet connects directly into the laundry room, cutting out the stairs from one the more tedious daily chores in the home. The remaining two bedrooms are generously sized and finished with new carpet upstairs and both staircases.
The Walkout Basement: More Than an Afterthought
Walkout basements often become storage rooms with a couch. This one is set up to be a loved space and lived in. A rec room with adjustable theatre lighting anchors the space, alongside a home office that doubles as a fourth bedroom for buyers who need the flexibility. A 3-piece bathroom with a bench shower and ample storage round out the level, and the walkout access means the basement doesn’t feel like a basement.
The Backyard That Sells the House
This is the space that outshines most other homes. A covered outdoor living room includes its own gas fireplace, a tinted glass privacy wall, and interlocking stone underfoot. A custom-built pergola with privacy walls shelters a Dynasty Spa hot tub, and stonework steps lead through mature, professionally landscaped grounds. Sprinkler systems service both the front and back yards, and a large upper deck connects via staircase down to the lower patio, tying the whole outdoor space together instead of leaving it in disconnected pieces.
What's Already Been Upgraded For You
Buying an older home usually means budgeting for the big-ticket replacements within the first few years. This one has already had them done:
- High-efficiency furnace, December 2023, with a transferable warranty
- Two new 40-gallon commercial-grade hot water tanks, January 2026, with a transferable warranty, plus infloor heat roughed in for future jetted tub capacity in the primary ensuite
- Central air conditioning, 2020
- Nilfisk central vacuum system
- Full exterior repaint, 2021
- Garage doors, exterior trim, and front door repainted, 2025
- Upgraded sprinkler control panel, 2025
- New washer and dryer, 2025
That's not a list of cosmetic touch-ups. It's a home where the systems most buyers worry about have already been handled.
Why Auburn Bay
Auburn Bay is one of the few Calgary communities built around private lake access, and that alone sets it apart from most southeast neighbourhoods. Residents get walking trails, dog parks, and a lake for swimming and paddling in the summer months, all within the community itself. South Health Campus sits close by, and major routes make the rest of Calgary an easy drive rather than a commitment. For buyers who want lake living without leaving the city, Auburn Bay is one of the only places in Calgary that offers it.
