Overview
Clarion House is a 34-home condominium at 4507 45 Street SW in Glamorgan. Completed in 1998, the four-storey building combines stone, stucco, pitched rooflines and mature evergreen landscaping in a quiet residential setting. Its two- and selected three-bedroom homes are generous, typically spanning approximately 991-1,225 sq ft.

Architecture & development
The symmetrical facade uses twin gables, stone-clad lower walls and recessed balconies to reduce the building's scale. A covered stone entrance marks the centre, while mature trees wrap the side and rear grounds. Wood-frame residential floors sit above a concrete parkade.
At its current age, Clarion House is defined by its completed maintenance as much as original construction. Roofing, windows, balconies, stucco, elevators and parkade work should appear in a coherent reserve history.
Homes & layouts
Two-bedroom plans dominate, frequently with two baths, a fireplace, defined dining area, in-suite laundry and covered patio or balcony. Selected larger plans add a third bedroom or den. Main-floor homes can have direct relationships to the landscaped grounds.
Compare bedroom dimensions, fireplace, patio privacy, parking title, storage room and renovation scope. Garden-level convenience and upper-floor light serve different buyers.
Amenities
Clarion House commonly offers a guest suite, social room, car wash, visitor parking and elevator. The guest suite extends larger homes for family visits, while the car wash and indoor parking support year-round use.
Current booking, guest, car-wash and social-room rules come from the corporation. These spaces are modest enough to remain practical but still require scheduled maintenance.
Parking & mobility
Titled heated underground parking is typical, with stall count and storage relationship varying. Confirm titles, visitor supply, elevator route, clearance, car-wash access and electric-vehicle policy.
45 Street station is approximately 2.65 km away, so buses and driving are the primary modes. Glenmore Trail, Sarcee Trail and Stoney Trail provide regional access.
Transit & location
Clarion House is embedded in Glamorgan rather than placed on a major corridor. Parks, schools and local shops are nearby, while Mount Royal University, Westhills and Signal Hill broaden the daily service radius.
The quiet position trades immediate CTrain access for a more residential environment. Commute testing should focus on the relevant bus or driving route.
Clarion House sits on a quiet Glamorgan street near schools, parks and neighbourhood retail, with Mount Royal University and Westhills services a short drive or bus trip away.
Neighbourhood context
Glamorgan is an established west-side community with detached homes, townhouses and several apartment clusters. Mature trees and proximity to Mount Royal University give it a settled character and consistent rental and ownership demand.
Clarion House's small scale fits that environment. Tree and garden exposures matter more than skyline views, and the exact patio or balcony position shapes privacy.
Construction & systems
Wood framing, stucco and stone walls, windows, balconies, pitched roofing and the underground parkade form the building envelope. Shared systems include the elevator, fire protection, domestic water, drainage, ventilation, car wash and guest-suite components.
Review the reserve study, roof and envelope work, insurance and water losses, parkade, elevator and fireplace responsibilities. A 34-home corporation needs clear project timing because costs are shared across a limited ownership base.
Buying here
Compare plan size, floor, exposure, patio or balcony, parking titles, storage and fireplace. Review guest-suite operations, reserve funding, insurance, recent projects, pets and rentals before deciding.
Clarion House suits buyers wanting larger rooms and a quiet west-side address. The best purchase aligns the private home's updates with the building's capital plan.
Selling here
Lead with the authentic stone-and-stucco exterior and mature grounds, then document the large plan, outdoor space, fireplace, parking and storage. Guest-suite and car-wash access are concrete differentiators.
Comparable sales should begin within Clarion House, adjusting for floor, size, garden exposure, parking count and renovation before expanding to Glamorgan.
