STARS Lottery Dream Home Embraces Coastal Elegance in Heartwood
In a heartfelt initiative to support STARS air ambulance, Trico Homes has unveiled its ninth STARS Lottery home, a stunning coastal-inspired residence valued at $1.461 million. Located on a quiet street in the Heartwood community of Calgary, the Cambridge 28 model is a three-bedroom, two-storey gem that masterfully blends soft colors with a stately presence, creating an ambiance of luxury and tranquility throughout its light-filled spaces.
Design Vision: Warmth and Tranquility
Alex Scott, Trico Homes' show home lead decorator and the interior designer behind this 2,505-square-foot project, emphasizes the home's inviting nature. "Every detail in this home really exudes warmth and tranquility. Our vision was to create a cozy retreat that was both beautiful and inviting," Scott explains. The color palette features soft whites and warm woods, enhanced by textured elements that encourage relaxation, making visitors feel as if the home whispers, "It's OK to breathe and just be."
Open-Concept Living for Connection
The main floor is designed with an open-concept layout to foster connection and comfort. A 19-foot high great room showcases a gas fireplace with a stone surround and a shiplap feature wall, adding texture and interest ideal for family gatherings. The chef-inspired kitchen, a favorite of Scott's, includes:
- Custom lacquer cabinetry in a soft sage color (Benjamin Moore's Raintree Green)
- Honed quartz countertops and a central island with a waterfall edge
- Floating shelves and built-in KitchenAid appliances
- Champagne bronze fixtures for timeless coastal charm
Engineered hardwood floors flow seamlessly throughout, while an alabaster chandelier and curved sage green French door with reeded glass elevate the aesthetic.
Luxurious Upper-Level Retreat
Upstairs, the owner's suite offers a luxurious escape with a five-piece ensuite featuring a free-standing tub, large walk-in shower, dual sinks, under-cabinet LED lighting, and a spacious walk-in closet. Two well-appointed secondary bedrooms, a central bonus room, and a convenient side-by-side laundry room with countertop workspace complete the upper level.
Community and Charitable Commitment
Situated in Heartwood, developed by Rohit Group, this home is part of a connected community in Calgary's southeast, offering urban living with amenities like nature trails, a storm pond, and future shops. This year marks the 33rd year of the STARS Lottery and the 9th consecutive year of Trico's partnership with the air ambulance organization. Michael Brown, president and CEO of Trico Homes, states, "We're honoured to support STARS and the extraordinary work they do for Albertans facing their worst moments. At Trico, we believe strong communities are built through compassion and commitment, and this partnership is a reflection of those values."
