Tuscany is also possibly Calgary’s fastest growing community.

Carma’s Tuscany,  situated on the northwest tip of the city, offers quick and easy access to downtown, the southwest, and the northeast quadrants. The natural beauty of rolling hills and mountain views surrounds the area.

It is convenient to shopping, schools, major traffic routes, bus service, and recreational activities. Tuscany residents also have access to tennis courts, gym, basketball courts, skating rink, a fountain spray park, and picnic areas at the Tuscany Club.

Mosaic Toscana is located on the western edge of Tuscany at 790 Tuscany Drive NW, where many of the homes look out upon an exceptional mountain view. Mosaic Toscana’s curb appeal offers timeless architecture combined with a touch of elegance and a homey feel and strong sense of community with its white picket fenced private yards.

Each of Mosaic Toscana’s 111 townhomes includes double attached garages in four floor plans ranging from 1,203 to 1,491 square feet. You can choose between two bedrooms, each with ensuites; three bedrooms; or three bedrooms with a master ensuite.

Homes start in the $170,000s, with mountain view homes starting in the $190,000s. Three show home models are currently available for viewing.

Each of these designs come in mid or rear kitchen options, double-car garage, and balconies (on some models). You can choose between oak or white cabinetry and Frigidaire kitchen appliances in black or white. Rock, trellis, and gazebo features complement the common area’s attractive landscaping.

The Mosaic Toscana is pet friendly and you’ll be pleased with the low condominium fees, which include landscaping, snow removal, fire and liability insurance, exterior maintenance, reserve fund, and management fees.
