Contemporary house with garden and terrace Exshaw (Canada)

Set within the rolling foothills of Alberta's eastern Rockies, 32 Carraig Ridge is a study in architecture, landscape, and restraint. Occupying a 2.1-acre homesite within the private gated enclave of Carraig Ridge, the residence was conceived by internationally acclaimed Saunders Architecture as a contemporary response to its extraordinary setting. Positioned along a forested ridgeline above Anna Lake, the home appears to emerge naturally from the land itself, framed by mature spruce and expansive views stretching across the foothills toward the Rocky Mountains beyond. The striking Y-shaped form is both sculptural and purposeful. Each wing is oriented to capture a distinct perspective of the surrounding landscape—morning light filtering through the trees, reflections across the lake below, and distant mountain silhouettes that shift with the seasons. Floor-to-ceiling glazing dissolves the boundary between indoors and out, creating a constant dialogue between architecture and nature. Inside, nearly 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space balances warmth with modern minimalism. Natural materials, soaring ceilings, and carefully framed sightlines draw the eye outward, while expansive terraces extend the living experience into the landscape. The principal living spaces are designed for gathering, anchored by the well-appointed chef's kitchen and surrounded by uninterrupted views of the foothills. The primary suite occupies its own private wing, while guest accommodations and a flexible studio or office offer space for family, creativity, or quiet retreat. Yet the true luxury here is space. Carraig Ridge is unlike any other residential offering in the region. Spanning approximately 650 acres of protected foothills landscape, with more than 500 acres preserved in their natural state, the community consists of just 44 estate homesites. Residents collectively steward a vast expanse of wilderness where native grasses, forests, wetlands, and wildlife remain the defining features of daily life. Located between Calgary and Canmore, Carraig Ridge offers a rare balance of accessibility and seclusion. International flights, urban amenities, world-class skiing, mountain biking, and hiking are all within easy reach, yet life here feels distinctly removed from the pace of the city. Importantly, this foothills location falls outside Canada's foreign buyer restrictions, presenting a rare opportunity for international purchasers seeking ownership in one of Western Canada's most compelling architectural communities. Part contemporary retreat, part design statement, and part wilderness sanctuary, 32 Carraig Ridge represents a rare convergence of architecture and landscape—an opportunity to experience the Canadian foothills through a lens of exceptional design.

Contemporary house with garden Calgary (Canada)

Set in the prestigious community of Aspen Estates, this custom-designed residence makes a striking architectural statement both inside and out, offering over 6,106 sq.ft. of meticulously developed living space and an expansive main level far larger than a traditional two-storey home. The moment you step inside, the soaring 19-ft foyer and living room—with dramatic double-height windows—creates an unforgettable sense of volume, light, and spatial drama, revealing the home’s strong architectural bones and meticulous detailing. Throughout the interior, rift-cut oak serves as a unifying design element, its refined linear grain expressed in both the extensive custom millwork and the sculptural floating staircase, lending a quiet, contemporary elegance that reinforces the home’s architectural coherence. Additional refined materials include recently refinished hardwood flooring, two-inch solid quartzite stone counters, three double-sided floor-to-ceiling fireplaces, heated floors throughout the bathrooms, lower level, and garage, solid core doors, and custom lighting and window coverings. The chef-inspired kitchen is both beautiful and functional, centered around a massive tiered quartzite island and outfitted with Sub-Zero and Viking appliances and an expansive butler’s pantry, complemented by a formal dining room, a private office with built-ins, and a generously sized bedroom with full bathroom on this level. Above the open-to-below living area, an architectural catwalk floats through the space, leading to the bedroom wing where the serene primary suite offers extensive built-ins, a large walk-in closet, a marble floor-to-ceiling surround two-way fireplace, a peaceful sitting area, and a spa-inspired ensuite with heated floors, soaker tub, and steam shower, along with two additional bedrooms each with their own ensuite and walk-in closet. The lower level is designed for indulgent relaxation and entertaining, featuring a spacious recreation area, wet bar, theatre room, dedicated fitness room, a fifth bedroom, and a luxurious bathroom with steam shower, all kept perfectly comfortable year-round with in-floor heating and dual A/C units.
