Set on a private, wooded 2-acre parcel in the sought-after community of Elk Valley Estates, this property offers an exceptional opportunity to create your own country retreat in one of the most desirable lifestyle locations west of Calgary. Bordering an environmental reserve on two sides, which is a well known wildlife corridor, and tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, the setting provides a rare combination of privacy, natural beauty, and direct access to the outdoor lifestyle that draws so many to Bragg Creek. Spend your weekends exploring the renowned West Bragg Creek and Kananaskis trail systems, enjoying world-class mountain biking, hiking, horseback riding, cross-country skiing, and snowshoeing, all just minutes from your doorstep. The charming hamlet of Bragg Creek offers local shops, cafés, restaurants, and a strong sense of community, while Calgary remains an easy 30-minute commute away. This two storey home has over 3000 sq ft of total living space, including the walkout basement, has been cared for by the same owners for the past 18 years and offers a solid foundation for future updates and personalization. Large windows throughout the home capture peaceful forest views, while the vaulted living room showcases a dramatic floor-to-ceiling bay window that brings the outdoors in. The bright dining area opens onto an expansive deck, creating the perfect space to relax, entertain, or simply enjoy the surrounding natural landscape. The spacious kitchen features oak cabinetry, an island, and a sunny breakfast nook, while the adjoining family room is centered around a wood-burning fireplace. Upstairs, three bedrooms include a spacious primary suite with a five-piece ensuite and walk in closet in addition to another full bathroom. The walkout lower level provides additional living/recreation space and features a gas fireplace, full bathroom and extensive storage spaces. Seller improvements include a roof replacement in 2015 and two new furnaces and h/w tank were installed in 2026. While the home presents an opportunity for a new owner to undertake cosmetic updates and further improvements, the true value lies in the exceptional setting, the mature treed acreage, and the unparalleled lifestyle that comes with living in West Bragg Creek. Properties offering this combination of privacy, natural surroundings, and access to recreation are increasingly difficult to find, making this a rare opportunity to establish roots in one of Alberta's most treasured country residential communities.

Calgary Acreage Buying Guide

Key Considerations When Buying Acreage

Purchasing an acreage near Calgary comes with unique factors compared to buying a city home. Before making an offer, consider the following:

  • Utilities: Many rural properties rely on water wells, septic systems, and independent power sources. Understand the age, condition, and capacity of these systems, as repairs or replacements can be costly.
  • Zoning & Land Use Bylaws: Check the municipal zoning regulations to ensure the property can be used for your intended purpose—whether it’s a hobby farm, equestrian facility, or home-based business.
  • Road Access & Snow Removal: Some acreages have private or seasonal roads. Confirm maintenance responsibilities and snow removal services, especially during Calgary’s winter months.

Financing an Acreage Purchase

Financing rural real estate in Calgary can differ from a standard home mortgage:

  • Bank Requirements: Lenders often have stricter requirements for acreages, especially if the land is over a certain size or used for agricultural purposes.
  • Down Payment Differences: Expect a higher down payment—sometimes 20–30%—depending on the property’s classification and value.

Inspection & Due Diligence

An acreage inspection goes beyond the typical home inspection and should include:

  • Septic System: Ensure it meets current code and is functioning properly.
  • Water Testing: Check for water quality, pressure, and quantity from wells or cisterns.
  • Fencing & Boundaries: Inspect perimeter fencing, gates, and property lines to avoid disputes.
  • Outbuilding Condition: Assess barns, shops, and sheds for structural integrity and potential repair costs.

Working with Diane Richardson REALTOR® experienced in Calgary acreage sales ensures you navigate these considerations with confidence.

Frequently Asked Questions

What is the average price of an acreage near Calgary?

The average price for an acreage near Calgary typically ranges from $750,000 to $1.5 million, depending on location, lot size, and features. Luxury estates and equestrian properties in areas like Springbank or Bearspaw can exceed $2 million, while smaller hobby farms or rural parcels in outlying counties may start under $700,000.

Can I run a business from my acreage?

In many cases, you can operate a business from your acreage, but it depends on zoning regulations and land use bylaws set by the municipality (e.g., Foothills County or Rocky View County). Common home-based businesses include equestrian training, small-scale farming, and workshops. Always confirm with the local planning office before purchasing.

How far are most acreages from downtown Calgary?

Most acreages for sale near Calgary are located within a 20–45 minute drive of downtown, depending on the area. Communities like Springbank and Bearspaw offer quick city access, while acreages in Mountain View County or Wheatland County may have longer commutes but more affordable land.

What is the difference between Foothills County and Rocky View County properties?

Foothills County acreages are often south of Calgary, featuring rolling hills, farmland, and equestrian facilities. Rocky View County properties typically lie to the west and north, offering mountain views, luxury estates, and proximity to golf courses and recreation areas. Both counties have their own zoning bylaws and property tax rates, which may influence your buying decision.
