But with little interest from buyers, it was taken off the market in January. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-article-body__text text-pr-5\">\u201cIt\u2019s very rare you get a townhouse with a triple, attached garage and an elevator inside it,\u201d said agent Kamil Lalji.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-article-body__text text-pr-5\">\u201cBut in Calgary, it\u2019s very challenging to sell off of plans; even challenging to sell 98 per cent complete.\u201d<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-article-body__text text-pr-5\">Once fully finished this summer, it was reintroduced to the market and sold for the full asking price. The adjacent units are still seeking buyers.<\/p>\n<p class=\"c-article-body__text text-pr-5\">\u201cAs soon as we listed it, we had an offer right away,\u201d said Mr. Lalji. \u201cUnit three is the most desirable of the three units. <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-article-body__text text-pr-5\">\u201cIt is an end unit, and it has a private side yard, which is quite valuable if you have kids or pets. It also sides onto a green space.\u201d <\/p>\n<p><a style=\"display:block\" href=\"https:\/\/www.theglobeandmail.com\/resizer\/v2\/O5OIX6IT6VFZBFUMKMBF7ZXR7E.JPG?auth=88bd6cf04e1e1e92674a0468d5613a68c84afdfd4e15e85697e5847a0d2553e6&amp;width=600&amp;height=400&amp;quality=80&amp;smart=true\" aria-haspopup=\"true\" data-photo-viewer-index=\"2\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Open this photo in gallery:<\/a><\/p>\n<p class=\"figcap-text\">The home&#8217;s kitchen has an island and quartz countertops.CIR Realty<\/p>\n<p>What they got <\/p>\n<p class=\"c-article-body__text text-pr-5\">This three-bedroom townhouse has 2,421 square feet of living space and three terraces.
