The Acreage Lifestyle:

  • In Alberta offers a unique blend of rural tranquillity & spacious living, often just a short drive from urban Centres like Calgary. Living on an Acreage typically means having a large plot of land—ranging from a few to dozens of acres—which allows for privacy, open skies & the freedom to pursue outdoor activities like gardening, keeping horses, or riding ATVs. Residents enjoy a slower pace of life & a strong connection to nature, with opportunities to watch wildlife, stargaze without city light pollution & experience fully the changing seasons more vividly. Many Acreages are equipped with Custom homes, workshops & outbuildings, they often rely on private wells & septic systems rather than municipal services. While the lifestyle demands more self-sufficiency & maintenance, such as snow removal & land management, it appeals to those seeking peace, space & the sense of independence. At the same time, access to nearby Towns & Cities ensures that essential services & community amenities are still within reach. Scroll down for the latest Acreage listings and Rural overview.

    The Bragg Creek Trifecta: many properties have one of these three coveted things, but very few have it all! First, a beautiful home. Redesigned by award winning, internationally acclaimed designer, John Haddon, the 3968 sq. ft. of living space was taken down to the studs and rebuilt, inside and out, with the finest materials and craftsmanship. Second, incredible views of the mountains and forest. Given the seclusion and privacy, not a single curtain on any of the 55 windows impedes the breathtaking views afforded from every room. The third and most rare attribute of all, the thing that makes this “the hat trick”, is direct access to Kananaskis Country! That’s right, there is a private gate that connects to one of the most famous, beautiful, backcountry areas in Alberta, where you can hike or bike or ride for days. This home, sitting on 23 acres, is part of a small exclusive development of properties which span a ridge and directly border K-Country - the biggest backyard of all! Entering the home, the first thing you notice is the airy interior space, with cathedral ceilings and huge windows. The slate foyer gives way to Brazilian cherry hardwood floors, flowing throughout the balance of the home. Resisting the urge to immediately rush to the windows and deck system, to the left is the dining room and kitchen with quartz countertops and high-end appliances. Further on are two high-ceiling bedrooms, each with their own access to the wrap-around deck and connected by a large Jack and Jill 5-piece en suite. The upstairs is entirely devoted to the primary suite, which is unparalleled, with the huge windows and private deck all giving a new perspective to the vistas beyond. The 6-piece bathroom and walk-in closet complete this lofty sanctuary. The walk out lower level features a bar, exercise room, office area, expansive rec room with gas fireplace, 3-piece bath, and French doors to the walk-out patio and huge deck beyond. The property is completed by an insulated and drywalled triple car garage. You’re intrigued, I can tell, and further investigation is needed. Explore using our streaming video and 3-D tour; and then take the next step and make the Trifecta your own. More details
