    PRIME Rio Terrace location just half a block to the school, playground and community centre. This open beam bungalow is a perfect and untouched example of mid century modern wood work, design and vibe that could easily be cherished for that 1960 feel. In fact it is so perfect that it is movie set original for its classic presentation. Wait till you see the fully finished basement that has that Dean Martin and Tom Jones cocktail party ambience. It would be a shame to not preserve most of the mid century modern retro charm of this home that reflects what cool was in the 1960 Edmonton realestate scene. More details
