Description:
Welcome to 40 MCKERREL CLOSE SE, nestled in the beloved lake community of McKenzie Lake — where summer days mean paddleboarding, swimming, and picnicking at the water's edge, and winter evenings mean skating under the stars with the whole family. With exclusive PRIVATE LAKE ACCESS included, this is more than just a home — it's a lifestyle that most Calgarians only dream about. This well-maintained BI-LEVEL offers 1,014 sq ft ABOVE GRADE with 3 BEDROOMS and a 4-PIECE BATH on the main floor. Step inside to a generous LIVING ROOM flooded with natural light through LARGE WINDOWS, where LUXURY VINYL PLANK FLOORING (2021) creates a warm, cohesive feel throughout. The UPDATED KITCHEN features crisp white cabinetry, butcher block countertops, and a sunny window that fills the space with natural light. The adjacent dining area flows seamlessly to PATIO DOORS leading out to your UPPER DECK — the perfect spot for morning coffee or an evening glass of wine while overlooking your private backyard. The upper level also features a spacious PRIMARY BEDROOM, two additional bedrooms, and a beautifully UPDATED 4-PIECE BATHROOM with granite countertops, a wood vanity, and modern fixtures. MAIN FLOOR LAUNDRY rounds out the upper level for added convenience. Downstairs, the fully developed ILLEGAL SUITE adds 813 sq ft of self-contained living space with its own PRIVATE ENTRANCE. The RENOVATED KITCHEN features modern grey SHAKER CABINETS and full appliances, flowing into a spacious REC ROOM with RECESSED LIGHTING and dark LUXURY VINYL PLANK FLOORING. A private BEDROOM, 3-PIECE BATHROOM, and IN-SUITE LAUNDRY complete the space — making this an excellent INVESTMENT or comfortable multi-generational living option. Outside, the LARGE PIE-SHAPED LOT with NW-FACING BACKYARD catches the afternoon and evening sun — ideal for entertaining, kids, and pets. Spend summer weekends at the LAKE swimming, kayaking, and enjoying SANDY BEACHES, then come home to your RAISED GARDEN BEDS and mature trees. The OVERSIZED DETACHED DOUBLE GARAGE at an impressive 32.5 x 19.4 ft offers room for two vehicles plus a dedicated WORKSHOP space — perfect for hobbyists, mechanics, or storing all of Calgary's favourite recreational gear year-round. Major updates provide real peace of mind: NEW ROOF (2021), LUXURY VINYL PLANK FLOORING throughout (2021), and a fully completed INTERIOR WEEPING TILE and SUMP SYSTEM upgrade (2025) by Abalon Foundation Repairs.
