The Action: Within the Silvertip Resort in Canmore, all but one out of 20 suites at The Pinnacle II are to be sold by Sotheby's agents on behalf of the developer. This spring, they listed a handful of units, including this three-bedroom plus den end unit that scored a $1,185,000 offer after the price dropped to $1,198,000 from $1,257,900.
What They Got: At the highest point in a mountainside golf community stands an 11-year-old mid-rise containing two- and three-bedroom plus den suites ranging from 1,600 to 2,800 square feet. The developer tried to rezone them as a vacation club, but began selling them as upscale condominiums this year.
This 2,271-square-foot unit has a long entry hall to a central principal room with kitchen facilities behind an island and a fireside entertaining area flanked by windows and walkouts to two balconies facing south and west.
Luxuries include walk-in closets and private ensuites with heated tile floors in two bedrooms, one of which also has access to the smaller balcony.
Other essentials include a den, powder and utility rooms, a tiled two-car parking spot and monthly fees of $772.
The Agent's Take: "It's the only concrete residential building of that standard in Canmore, which is pretty unique because a lot of them are stick frame," agent Christopher Vincent says.
"[Plus] no one is really offering that single-level living in Canmore with that size. A lot of the time it's 1,400 square feet, so it's hard to get above 2,000 square feet."
Even interior appointments are relatively unheard of.
"The spec on the unit was far beyond what we see for many single-level units in town," Mr. Vincent says.
"And that part of the building doesn't have anyone above them because it steps back, so it's essentially a penthouse with vaulted ceilings and huge views to the south."
