About this home

*OPEN HOUSE SUN NOV 1ST 1-4PM* From the moment you arrive, there's an immediate sense this property is something special. Set on 4.26 acres, it offers presence, privacy, and understated grandeur, a rare chance at acreage living this close to the city. Just 10 minutes to South Health Campus, 25 minutes to downtown Calgary, and 18 minutes to the train, near schools, recreation, a year-round indoor ice arena with walking/running track, the Okotoks Agricultural Society indoor heated arena, and river access. Timeless shingle-style siding of high-quality compressed wood, extensive board and batten detailing, and steep gables carry a consistent architectural style through the 5,589 sqft home and across the outbuildings. Expansive windows capture natural light and views in every direction. Rooms are exceptionally generous and comfortably accommodate substantial, oversized furnishings, more than photos convey. The 12' x 6' island sits in easy proportion within the kitchen featuring hand-painted raised panel cabinetry, marble and granite surfaces, a statement double fridge/freezer, and a 48" dual fuel range. A walk-in pantry with bar fridge and copper sink adds functionality, while custom reclaimed wood shelving brings warmth. Rare oiled wide-plank hardwood, travertine, and copper fixtures run throughout. The living room extends to a covered outdoor space with a vaulted wood ceiling and double-sided fireplace. A custom open staircase connects all levels, leading upstairs to a spacious bonus room, dual primary walk-in closets, and direct laundry access for a practical circular flow. An attached nanny suite offers a private entrance, deck, full bathroom, and bar area. Originally an open farmer's field, the property has been transformed into fully established estate grounds, with landscaping and exterior site improvements that would cost well over half a million dollars to reproduce today. Developed throughout with the density and detail of a beautifully landscaped city lot on an extraordinary scale, some landscaped islands rival an entire city property. Mature trees, layered plantings, extensive stonework and cobblestone pathways, a pond and waterfall, expansive fire-pit area, irrigation, landscape lighting, power and water front to back, a fenced garden with raised beds, an insulated, powered chicken coop, and a long paved illuminated driveway reflect a maturity that would take years to recreate. Equestrian-ready, the property includes a barn with landscaped patio and recreation/pool table space, matching horse shelters, a covered feeder, water stations, pastures, and fencing. The oversized 1,500 sqft in-floor heated garage offers built-in cabinetry, paved parking, and RV parking with full power hookup. The home features a triple furnace system for zoned heating, dual AC, boiler-based in-floor heat in the fully finished basement, and year-round water access in the garage. Acreage living, without sacrificing access to everything that matters.
