    A short drive down a paved road, through a secure solar-powered entrance gate, and the noise of the world disappears. Set on 21.52 acres in Rural Foothills County, this exceptional property offers more than privacy, it offers a different way of living. As the gate closes behind you, the pace of life slows. Approximately seven horse-fenced acres of mature forest surround the home, with winding trails to explore, seasonal fruits and berries to gather, and nature as your daily backdrop. Wake to birdsong instead of traffic. Watch horses graze, listen to owls call on quiet evenings, and look skyward for bald eagles and hawks drifting overhead. Shared with horses, poultry, waterfowl, and abundant local wildlife, this is a place where you’ll feel completely at peace, but never alone. Beyond the treeline, the 15-acre hay field is maintained by a neighbouring farmer, preserving the beauty of the landscape while reducing homeowner upkeep. Children can explore, families can gather around the fire, and evenings can be spent beneath a sky full of stars. Despite the peaceful seclusion, the school bus stops at the end of the driveway for a quick five-minute ride to nearby schools. Enjoy prairie sunrises, spectacular sunsets, and the tranquility of country living while remaining close to everyday conveniences. Calgary’s Legacy Township, Seton, South Health Campus, and shopping amenities are less than 15 minutes away, while Okotoks, with Costco, Home Depot, Walmart, restaurants, and more is just minutes south. Nestled within this private setting, the classic bungalow offers over 2,700 sq. ft. of developed living space with five bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The inviting living room is centred around a floor-to-ceiling brick wood-burning fireplace, while the kitchen offers abundant cabinetry, generous workspace, a full-height pantry, custom built-ins, and a dual-drawer refrigerator.

Whether you dream of horses in the pasture, children exploring wooded trails, a hobby farm, a self-sufficient homestead, or simply a peaceful place to call home, this property offers something increasingly rare: space, freedom, and a connection to nature. This is more than an acreage, it’s a place to slow down, spread out, and build a life you’ll love. More details

Foothills County Acreage Buying Guide

Key Considerations When Buying in Foothills County

Purchasing an acreage in Foothills County comes with rural‑specific factors that differ from city homes. Keep these in mind before you write an offer:

  • Water & Septic: Confirm well depth, flow rate (gpm), water quality tests, and septic type/age (tank & field vs. mound). Budget for potential upgrades and regular maintenance.
  • Zoning & Land Use: Verify permitted uses (e.g., hobby farm, equestrian, home‑based business), outbuilding size limits, and animal unit allowances. Check setbacks and subdivision potential.
  • Access & Services: Clarify road maintenance responsibilities (municipal vs. private), snow removal expectations, school bus routes, and emergency access.
  • Utilities & Heat: Identify power source, gas/propane availability, backup generation, and heating systems (furnace, boiler, hydronic, wood). Inspect for insurance‑sensitive items (older wood stoves, unlined chimneys).
  • Environmental Factors: Review drainage, wetlands, flood plains, watercourse setbacks, and shelterbelts. Walk fence lines and confirm boundary markers.

Financing Foothills County Acreages

  • Lender Criteria: Financing can vary with parcel size, agricultural use, and outbuildings. Larger acreages or income‑producing properties may require higher down payments and specialty lenders.
  • Appraisals & Insurance: Rural appraisals consider land value plus improvements. Confirm insurability of wells, septic systems, and older structures early in the process.

Inspections & Due Diligence

  • Home & Outbuildings: Assess structural integrity, shop/barn electrical, foundation, roof, doors, and slab condition. Note permit history for additions and shops.
  • Water & Septic Reports: Order a bacteriological/chemical water test and a septic evaluation/pump‑out report. Keep receipts and documentation for future resale.
  • Title & Easements: Review title for rights‑of‑way, utility easements, restrictive covenants, and encroachments that may affect use or future development.
