OPEN HOUSE Sunday, Sept 21st 4-6PM. The Glasshaus is a REMARKABLE offering in Calgary's coveted Briar Hill. This lock-and-leave luxury residence is perched on an ULTRA-EXCLUSIVE ridge lot surrounded by PARKLAND on three sides, offering unmatched PRIVACY and PANORAMIC VIEWS from east to west. A true retreat in the heart of the city, The Glasshaus blends iconic architecture with a low-maintenance lifestyle — perfect for those seeking sophisticated living without compromise. REIMAGINED FROM THE STUDS with nearly $3 million in upgrades — including new electrical, plumbing, HVAC, triple-pane windows, and custom structural reengineering — The Glasshaus is a seamless expression of comfort, functional beauty, refined living, and purposeful minimalism. Smooth stucco, brick detailing, and composite wood-look siding wrap the exterior in a sophisticated, warm-modern finish. Gaulhofer triple-pane windows from Austria, paired with a solar film, provide exceptional energy efficiency, sound attenuation, and soft natural light throughout the day. The entry opens to a 19-foot foyer anchored by the sculptural Apparatus Studio "Cloud" chandelier, floating beneath an architectural window and setting the tone for the artful design within. Airy living spaces flow around a dramatic, climate-controlled glass wine cellar — the centerpiece of the home. The Italian Pedini kitchen — with integrated Miele appliances, a curved quartz island, Matthew McCormick pendants, and handle-free cabinets — is a functional space for those with a passion for culinary arts. Finishes include Spanish hardwood flooring, Italian tile, and New Zealand wool carpet. A Control4 system manages lighting, blinds, audio, video, temperature, intercom, and security. Bowers & Wilkins speakers deliver rich sound throughout. The main level also includes a soundproof office with custom millwork and leather upholstery, a designer powder room, and laundry with quartz surfaces and smart storage. The architecturally striking curve d stairwell leads to the upper level where FOUR IMMENSE bedrooms EACH INCLUDE AN ENSUITE, spacious walk-in closets, motorized blackout blinds, and incredible sunrise and sunset views. The primary suite features a downtown-facing, custom-designed bed wall, a double-sided fireplace, a built-in wardrobe, and a spa-inspired ensuite with radiant quartz counters, “gold” European fixtures, a freestanding tub, a frameless glass shower, and a Japanese-style smart toilet. The lower level hosts a second wine cellar, a wet bar, a state-of-the-art home theatre system, a glass-enclosed gym with cork flooring, a steam spa bathroom, and an open recreation space. Advanced Radon mitigation, water filtration, UV air purification, and a whole-home fire suppression system add peace of mind. Exterior upgrades include full concrete work, electric awnings, and a multi-sport court. The heated 3-vehicle garage offers lift potential. A one-of-a-kind residence, redefined for effortless living.
