Private $3.5M Edmonton house designed by a snazzy local architect in the '50s

An Edmonton house for sale is like living in a luxe mountain resort while in the city, and it has a neat connection to a renowned local architect.
This stunning $3.5-million home, located at 3 Valleyview Cres. NW, is a private, resort-like paradise recently listed on the market.
The 1958-built home was designed by renowned architect Don Bittorf, who is also known for his work on the University of Alberta’s Faculty of Law Centre and the former Art Gallery of Alberta building.
It has since been remodelled, boasting three bedrooms and four bathrooms, cedar ceilings, exposed beams, large windows, and gorgeous views of the heated saltwater pool.
