Property of the Week: A $2.5 Million Cabin on the Bow

A river runs through the backyard of this custom built log home in Bowness.

The log design gives a taste of country living to the city.

The history

This five bedroom, three bath home was custom built by Moose Mountain Log Homes in the early 1990s. The home sits on almost two acres facing the Bow River and was completely unaffected by the 2013 flood.

What to love

This property is entirely unique. The fireplaces are made from handpicked river stone. One fireplace features heritage sandstone brick. The kitchen has custom cabinets. The Mexican tile floor is heated. And, the backyard has a fish pond and greenhouse.
