    Some properties are bought. This one is fallen for. 210 St. Julien is an original log cabin, relocated to this site in 1950 and reborn through a comprehensive renovation that touched everything: roof, windows, plumbing, electrical, insulation, kitchens, bathrooms, flooring, and finishing. What remains is rare. The warmth and soul of hand-built log construction, the systems and finishes of a brand new property, and a patina that simply cannot be manufactured. The kind that only comes from real timber, real time, and real care. It sits on one of Banff's most prestigious streets, on nearly 11,000 square feet of elevated land backing onto treed reserve. The main living level opens to an unobstructed view across the entire valley and the peaks beyond. This is the view people move to the mountains for, framed from the comfort of a property that already lives at a level few in town do. Inside, the main floor centers on a 325 square foot living room anchored by a fireplace, flowing into a generous dining area and a chef's kitchen. Two bedrooms, including a serene primary, and a beautifully finished four piece bath complete the main level. Above, a light-filled loft offers flex space for whatever the next owner imagines: a studio, a writing room, a yoga retreat, a quiet place to think. The fully developed walkout lower level with its own private entrance, kitchen, bedroom, den, and laundry, plus generous storage. Income, guests, or extended family, without compromising the privacy of the main dwelling. For the buyer who appreciates the finer things, who understands that craftsmanship and provenance are worth more than square footage and convention, 212 St. Julien is a work of art in its own right. Properties of this character do not come to market often. When they do, they find the right person. Shown by private appointment. More details

    Ridge 418 is a new development of 10 townhomes on Muskrat Street in Banff. A defined, limited project, designed by Russell and Russell Design Studios of Canmore and built by a Bow Valley team for the people who actually live here. Each townhome is built over three levels, with real room to live. 3 bedrooms and 2 baths sit on the upper floor, above an open main level where the kitchen and living space share one light-filled room anchored by an electric fireplace. A private attached garage handles the gear and the winters, a 17 foot deck off the main floor opens up the long summer evenings, and a fenced run gives the dog its own space. At 1,029 square feet, the layout is efficient where it should be and generous where it counts. Choose between two distinct designer palettes, each a complete interior scheme rather than a list of upgrades, both finished to feel move-in ready the day you arrive. The build quality is the kind you stop noticing because it simply works, season after season, made to hold up in a mountain climate. The setting does the rest. Banff Avenue is a 3 minute walk, so dinner and the shops are right there when you want them, and the Bow River trail is 5 minutes the other way. Step back onto your street and the crowds are gone. Close to everything. Apart from the rush. This is the Banff that residents keep for themselves. New homes rarely come to a street like this, and a 3 bedroom townhome with its own garage is rarer still. From $875,000 plus GST, the value is real: a new home this size, this close to town, at this number, is not something Banff offers often. Buying now locks in presale pricing ahead of completion, and lets you choose your home and its interior while the best selection remains. With possession anticipated summer 2027. GST rebate eligibility may apply. Reserve now to hold your residence at presale pricing. More details

    This townhome-style 1 bedroom + den, 2 bathroom home hits a tone that’s hard to find—warm, inviting, and genuinely comfortable to live in—within a building designed by award-winning architect Jeremy Sturgess. The two-level layout creates real separation: the main floor is designed for living and the upper level feels like a true retreat. The living space is the standout—ceilings with exposed beams, a wall of windows, and soft natural light that carries through the day. The flow here is easy and natural, with the living area opening seamlessly around a custom-built wall unit featuring integrated wine storage and cubbies, creating a space that feels both functional and grounded. The kitchen has been thoughtfully updated and flows naturally into the living area, making the space feel connected without being crowded. A full bathroom and in-suite laundry on the main level add to the overall function. Upstairs, the primary bedroom is quiet and removed, with skylights, a private balcony, and open mountain views. It’s a calm, comfortable space that feels separate from the rest of the home. A second full bathroom completes this level. The den offers flexibility depending on how you want to use the space—guests, office, or a second sleeping area. Well maintained, carefully updated, and filled with natural light, this home also features custom-made window coverings throughout, adding to the overall sense of quality and cohesion. The covered parking stall includes the ability to accommodate a storage unit, adding practical flexibility. Add in the views and the location, and it becomes a really compelling option in a part of Banff where opportunities like this don’t come up often. More details
