Perfectly perched high on the hilltop to take advantage of the best views Alberta has to offer. From the gorgeous Rocky Mountains to the prairies, this location will be hard to beat. This is the ultimate hobby farm, boasting 21.6 acres, zoned agricultural. There is a perfect mix of hayfields, corrals, pasture & of course plenty of outdoor entertaining space with room for a family football game. Conveniently located just a few minutes from either Okotoks or Black Diamond & 30 minutes to Calgary, this is country charm with an easy city commute. As you drive through the automatic gate, up the long treelined private driveway, you will immediately feel a sense of tranquility that only country living can bring. Take a minute to enjoy the views, listen to the breeze & breathe in the fresh air. This home was created with huge rooms to accommodate a large family, yet it is cozy enough for empty nesters just looking for a comfortable place to retire. As you enter notice that there is a different spectacular view from every window. The living room & formal dining room will be the perfect place for family gatherings. The kitchen is sweet, well laid out & opens up to a large breakfast nook & inviting family room with gas fireplace & custom built-ins. If home schooling or working from home wait until you see the main floor bonus room. This area is private & away from the rest of the main rooms allowing for the kids to study, the parents to be able to hold meetings or make this into an amazing media room. Country living will sometimes get messy, no worries in this home, have a look at the massive mudroom. This area will keep all of the cowboy boots, knapsacks & coats neat & tidy. The garage is oversized at 29’x25′, so bring your big truck & SUV. If a primary retreat is important, make your way upstairs and check out the grand bedroom with walk-in closet, a full bathroom, with a jetted tub & separate shower cleverly tucked away behind the door. There is a ton of room in here & more pretty mountain views. The secondary bedrooms are a generous size and they too have amazing views. The walk-out basement has huge windows and two exits. There is a full bathroom already started & useable and some of the framing is in to show you how this space could be developed. Now for the real reason you are moving to the country, head outside and ensure you give yourself enough time to truly appreciate how well set up this property really is. The backyard is fenced to keep the dogs in and there is invisible fence to keep them on your property when they are roaming with you. Bring the goats, piggies, chickens & ponies, there is plenty of room for all of them and there is no set up required, you can literally just put everyone in their new home. Don’t forget the trailers, quads & motorbikes, there is room for them too. There is a little barn, chicken coop, shelters and a 24’x28′ workshop. If moving from the city or upgrading to a larger acreage, this may very well be the perfect property.
