Sustainably built garden suite, steps from Whyte Ave, river valley & university!

The Bark House is a newly constructed suite located above our detached garage in Old Strathcona and features the work of local artists and artisans. The suite offers a uniquely welcoming and relaxing space from which to explore Edmonton's river valley, summer festivals, or the many attractions of Whyte Avenue.

You will be walking distance from the Old Strathcona Farmer's Market and Theatre District, and centrally located for short commutes to the University of Alberta, Rogers Place and Ice District, Alberta Legislature, Kinsmen Sports Centre, and downtown.

Great access to running and cycling routes, golf courses, parks, ski trails, and natural areas.

Minutes away from hundreds of restaurants, shops, live music venues, and pubs, and just a few blocks from Edmonton's growing craft brewery district.

Fully equipped kitchen where you can turn your market fresh finds into your favourite meal, and a dishwasher to help with the cleanup.

In suite laundry and custom wardrobe are perfect for business travellers, athletes, or longer stays.
