Parkallen is a quaint and welcoming neighborhood in the southwest of Edmonton, cherished for its strong community spirit and lush, tree-lined streets. Established in the late 1940s and early 1950s, Parkallen was designed with a focus on family life and community connectivity, featuring curved streets that discourage through traffic and promote a quiet residential atmosphere. Originally known as Beau Park, it was later renamed Parkallen to reflect its park-like setting. Today, it houses approximately 2,400 residents according to the latest census data.
Whether you're looking for space for a growing family, multi generational living, or the flexibility of a legal secondary suite, this custom built Parkallen home delivers. The spacious main and second floors provide comfortable family living, while the legal basement suite, complete with its own entrance, kitchen, and laundry, adds flexibility for extended family or a potential mortgage helper. Set on an oversized lot, approximately 1.5 standard lots, the property offers a massive backyard alongside a garage and parking pad that together accommodate 2 vehicles inside and 4 more outside, all without giving up yard space. The result is a gardener's delight, featuring apple, pear, and plum trees, garden beds ready for planting, and a greenhouse for extending the growing season. Ideally located just minutes from the University of Alberta, hospitals, the river valley, and everyday amenities, this home offers a combination of flexibility, lifestyle, and location.More details
