6 Calgary homes offering spectacular mountain views for under $300K

As Calgarians, we’re lucky to have the Rocky Mountains right in our backyard.

But sometimes, you just don’t want to drive an hour away to enjoy them. Luckily, there are plenty of homes in Calgary that offer stunning mountain views without having to leave the city.

In addition to being able to peep the mountains on the daily, many of these properties also feature hardwood flooring, high ceilings, large master suites, and open floor plans.
