    Set atop a private, gated lot, this custom-designed home takes full advantage of its unobstructed, far-reaching views. A winding drive leads you through the property, gradually revealing a home thoughtfully positioned to capture both privacy and landscape. Mornings here begin quietly—coffee in hand while watching horses train nearby—and on clear days the Rocky Mountains rise in the distance, a reminder of how remarkable this setting truly is. Inside, three levels of carefully designed living space offer room to gather, entertain, and retreat. The home opens to a generous foyer where a graceful staircase anchors the space. A bright flex room currently serves as a home office, while across the hall a well-proportioned dining room connects seamlessly to the kitchen and pantry—an easy layout for hosting family dinners or larger celebrations. The main level is filled with natural light, thanks to soaring ceilings and expansive windows. At the center of the home, the kitchen is designed for both everyday use and cooking with purpose, offering extensive cabinetry, a large island, built-in appliances, and a nearby pantry. The main-floor laundry room provides a cheerful, practical workspace. Tucked away for privacy, the primary suite offers a quiet retreat with a spacious walk-in closet and a beautifully appointed ensuite. A richly finished powder room completes the level. Upstairs, two equally sized bedrooms each feature their own full ensuite bath and elevated views across the surrounding landscape. The lower level introduces a generous amount of additional living space. Here you’ll find a large bedroom with a cheater ensuite, a gym, family room, games area—with pool table included—and a kitchenette with secondary laundry. This level adapts easily for entertaining, extended family, or a private living area for guests or a nanny. Outdoor living is equally inviting. Warm days can be spent swimming in the above-ground pool, while evenings might end with a soak in the hot tub. When temperatures rise, the home’s air conditioning keeps the interior comfortably cool. A triple attached garage and expansive driveway provide ample parking for residents and visitors alike. Set on 2.99 acres, the property feels wonderfully open, with no homes directly in front or behind—allowing the surrounding views and quiet of the landscape to take centre stage. More details

Foothills County Acreages & Real Estate: Frequently Asked Questions

What types of properties are available in Foothills County?

Foothills County offers a wide range of rural properties, including country residential acreages, horse and equestrian properties, family farms, luxury estate homes, and build-ready land parcels. Buyers can choose from mountain-view acreages, homes with shops or barns, and parcels near Okotoks, High River, De Winton, Millarville, Priddis, and Heritage Pointe.

How does zoning affect how I can use an acreage?

Zoning determines what you can do on your Foothills County acreage, such as keeping horses or livestock, adding secondary suites, or subdividing land. Before buying, it is important to confirm the current land use designation and permitted uses so your plans for building, farming, or operating a business are allowed.

What should I know about wells, septic systems, and utilities?

Most Foothills County acreages rely on private water wells or cisterns, and septic tanks or treatment fields instead of city services. As a buyer, you should arrange inspections and water testing, review system age and permits, and budget for ongoing maintenance and potential upgrades to rural utilities.

Can I keep horses or run an equestrian acreage on my property?

Many properties in Foothills County are suitable for horses, with pastures, paddocks, and room for barns or riding arenas. The specific number of animals and type of equestrian use allowed will depend on the zoning and parcel size, so it is important to review the land use rules for each listing you are considering.

How long is the drive from Foothills County acreages to Calgary?

Drive times from Foothills County to Calgary typically range from about 10 to 40 minutes, depending on the location of the acreage and your destination in the city. Many buyers choose this area because it offers quick access to major routes and amenities while still providing privacy, space, and country views.

Are there schools and everyday services close to Foothills County properties?

Yes. Families living on Foothills County acreages can access schools, sports facilities, shops, and medical services in nearby communities such as Okotoks and High River. Smaller hamlets and rural hubs also offer local services, with Calgary’s full range of amenities just a short drive away for most residents.

Is buying an acreage or farm different from buying a city home?

Buying an acreage involves extra steps such as checking well and septic reports, confirming access and driveway agreements, reviewing land use bylaws, and understanding service costs like snow removal and road maintenance. Buyers should allow time for additional inspections and due diligence specific to rural and agricultural properties.

Do I need a rural real estate specialist to buy in Foothills County?

Working with an agent experienced in Foothills County acreages and rural properties is highly recommended. A rural specialist can flag red flags, help you interpret zoning and title registrations, coordinate the right inspections, and guide you through financing and conditions that are common with country homes and land.

Can I find both move-in-ready homes and bare land in Foothills County?

Yes. Current listings often include fully finished country homes, updated acreages with shops or barns, and vacant land suited for new construction. Whether you want a turnkey horse property or a bare parcel to design your own estate, you can filter Foothills County MLS® listings to match your goals and budget.
