Power and seasonal water are conveniently available to both sites, while the property also features its own septic holding tank, making it an outstanding turnkey retreat for family gatherings, weekends with friends, or as the perfect site for your future cabin of up to 1,000 square feet. Outdoor living is already in place with a spacious deck, gazebo with firepit, , Hardie Board wood shed, tarp storage shed,, and plenty of room to relax and entertain. Kids will love having their own playhouse, swings, and zipline, creating memories that will last for years.

If you’ve been searching for a property that balances small-town lake charm with high-end estate finishes, 80 Rozier Close is a rare find that demands your attention. Situated on a massive 10,300+ sq ft lot—one of the largest in Sylvan Lake—this home isn't just a residence; it’s a masterclass in custom renovation and functional luxury.

Property Overview: 80 Rozier Close

• Living Space: ~3,900 sq ft of exquisitely developed area

• Lot Size: 10,300+ sq ft (Oversized with rear alley access)

• Parking: Oversized heated front garage (lift-potential ceilings) + Second rear garage/shop

• Key Features: Fully renovated, walk-up wet bar, 5-ton A/C (2026), and chef’s kitchen.

Why This Sylvan Lake Home Stands Out

1. A Chef’s Dream & Entertainer’s Layout

The main floor is defined by soaring two-story vaulted ceilings and a redesigned fireplace that serves as a stunning focal point. The kitchen is a showstopper, featuring:

• Waterfall Quartz Island and ceiling-height two-tone cabinetry.

• High-End Appliances: Brand new fridge (2026), dishwasher (2025), and a 5-burner gas stove.

• Custom Finishes: An enclosed illuminated wine display and a dining area with a brick feature wall that leads directly to a brand-new composite deck.

2. Specialized Construction Quality

Consistent with Marc Miiller’s background in construction and environmental consulting, this home features technical upgrades that go beyond aesthetics:

• Mechanical Peace of Mind: Serviced furnace (2026) and a newly installed 5-ton A/C unit to handle Alberta summers.

• Structural Details: Designer wide-plank flooring, Emstone architectural lighting, and custom millwork throughout.

• Primary Suite: A spa-inspired retreat with marble flooring, a freestanding tub, and a walk-in glass shower with modern black and brass fixtures.

3. The "Unicorn" Lot & Shop Space

Finding a fully renovated luxury home on a lot this size is nearly impossible in newer developments.

• The Shop: The second rear garage/shop offers unmatched versatility for car enthusiasts, hobbyists, or those needing secure storage for lake toys.

• Outdoor Living: All-new landscaping, a side patio with stamped concrete, and ample room for trailer or equipment parking via the rear alley.

Expert Insight: Sylvan Lake vs. SE Calgary

While Marc Miiller is the recognized expert for Southeast Calgary lake communities like Mahogany and Auburn Bay, his expertise extends to the Sylvan Lake corridor. Buyers looking for the private lake lifestyle of the SE but desiring more land and a detached shop will find incredible value in Ryders Ridge.

"In my 25 years of construction experience, it’s rare to see a renovation this thorough. From the in-floor heating in the basement to the custom wood beam details in the bonus room, this home was built for a buyer who values quality over a quick flip." — Marc Miiller
