With great parks and green spaces, a vibrant downtown core and the majestic Rocky Mountains just a short drive away, who could ask for more? With so many companies holding offices downtown, many people prefer to live close to where they work, and enjoy living within the centre of activity. If you enjoy feeling connected to all that’s happening within the city, love to frequent the clubs, shops and cafés and take in the culture and arts that Calgary’s city-centre has to offer, then you’ll love The Castello.

Located on the south-central side of Calgary’s downtown core, The Castello on 12th Avenue is within walking distance to the city centre, as well as recreational venues. With shopping, fine dining and endless amenities so close to home, you can experience urban living at its best. Homburg-Centron Teamworks have worked hard to create the perfect  blend of practical living, style and central location, and have achieved it with The Castello. Each suite offers an attractive blend of classic and contemporary architectural design, with large open floor plans, floor to ceiling glass and attractively angled terraces.

Allison Clark, Residential Sales & Marketing Manager, says that as one of the largest residential multi-family builders in Alberta, it was important to the company to deliver great value and quality both inside and out, especially since it may be one of the biggest investments that people will ever make. “In addition to our phenomenal location on 12th Ave and 5th street, (within walking distance to exceptional shopping, restaurants and entertainment) our large unit designs, extensive patios, best modern features and finishes lead us to believe that we deliver the best places to live in Calgary’s beltline area,” says Clark.

Each unit in the Castello offers elegant stainless steel appliances including a 30-bottle wine fridge, along with beautiful custom maple cabinetry and Okite kitchen countertops. Not only is the kitchen area attractive, it is also spacious and well-designed. The large eating bar allows you to entertain while impressing your guests with your culinary skills, while the cooking area itself is designed to be as functional as it is elegant. The sleek, clean lines enhance the contemporary look of these suites, and even the master bath is fully enclosed in glass, incorporating a luxurious glass shower and unique vessel sinks with European-style fixtures set in a spacious vanity. The entire effect is one of elegant space and contemporary style which is quite impressive. With units ranging for 980 square feet, all the way up to an incredible 1525 square feet, the Castello offers a wide range of living spaces, all with fantastic features. As well, the building itself offers some great features such as the roof-top patio and its fantastic views, private courtyard terraces, exclusive to the second floor residents, and of course the Castello will be beautifully landscaped as well. Priced from the $300’s, these sophisticated and luxurious units are sure to sell fast.
