OPEN HOUSE July 11 & 12 | 2:00–4:00 PM Welcome to your own private retreat, where the peace of country living meets the comfort of a thoughtfully renovated home. Set on two fully fenced acres on a quiet, family-friendly street, this exceptional walkout bungalow offers over 3,300 sq ft of developed living space. There were originally over 900 trees and 1,500 shrubs planted and the property was designed as a private, park-like setting. Over the years, the current owners have thoughtfully restored the landscape, selectively clearing overgrown areas while preserving its mature beauty and privacy. Enjoy your morning coffee on the covered front porch or unwind on the covered back deck while listening to the rain and overlooking your own peaceful backyard. The interior has been extensively renovated from top to bottom. Vaulted ceilings and expansive windows fill the home with natural light and beautiful backyard views, while engineered hardwood flows throughout most of the main level and down the staircase. The beautifully renovated kitchen opens to the living and dining areas, perfect for everyday living and entertaining. The primary retreat features a beautifully renovated spa-inspired 5-piece ensuite and an impressive walk-through dressing room, created from the original third bedroom. A second bedroom and renovated 4-piece bathroom complete the main floor. The walkout basement offers a dream laundry room with extensive cabinetry, farmhouse sink and generous folding space. Beyond the charming barn doors you'll find a convenient kitchenette, ideal for multi-generational living or guests. A striking two-sided fireplace separates the family room from a gorgeous home office featuring custom built-ins and patio doors leading directly to the backyard. A spacious third bedroom with a walk-in closet and another full bathroom complete the lower level. The attached garage has been professionally reconfigured into an incredible mudroom and coffee bar, with all required permits obtained, while the remaining space has been transformed into a heated and air-conditioned flex room with its own private entrance, currently used as a photography studio. It's ideal for a home-based business, gym, workshop, hobby room or could easily be converted back into an oversized single garage. Dreaming of a shop? There is a transferable development permit for a 30' × 36' shop with an extension to build until May 20, 2027. Additional features include central air conditioning, reverse osmosis water filtration, water softener, professionally replaced Poly-B plumbing, asphalt driveway, approximately 6 GPM well (last tested), and a fully fenced, gated yard perfect for families, children and dog lovers. As an added bonus, most of the furniture, artwork and décor can be included, making this a truly turnkey opportunity. Best of all, you're just a short walk to The Saskatoon Farm for weekend brunch, fresh baking & local shopping.

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.
