** Please join us for our TWILIGHT OPEN HOUSE this Friday, June 5th from 6-9PM to explore this property and catch a sunset .** | Wake up to the Rocky Mountains and finish your day watching the horses graze as the sun drops behind the foothills. This is ±8.7 private, treed acres just five minutes from Calgary's south edge, so you get real country living without giving anything up. Spruce Meadows, Granary Road and Red Deer Lake School are all minutes away, and yes, you can still order Skip the Dishes out here. The five bedroom walkout home was made for the view. Big west facing windows pull the mountains and foothills into nearly every room, so you can watch the kids on the zipline or the horses in the pasture right from the kitchen. And the kitchen is the heart of the home, open concept with a peninsula island that's built for entertaining. The upstairs brick wood burning and downstairs gas fireplaces keep it cozy, the all season sunroom doubles as a playroom, library or office, and the oversized mudroom and laundry make day to day country life easy. The walkout basement adds a gym, extra bedrooms with soundproofed construction, and a second fireplace framed by built in bookcases. Outside, the land is fully cross fenced and ready for horses and animals, with a barn for stabling, a workshop, and storage for boats and equipment. There's an oversized double garage, loads of driveway parking, a dedicated RV pad, a hot tub pad, a kids playset, a rock waterfall, and plenty of spots to sit and take it all in. The home has been updated top to bottom in recent years, including the kitchen and bathrooms, new flooring, a high efficiency furnace and heat pump, a new septic system, and a 14.2 kW grid tied solar system on the buyback program. Paved road and driveway right to the door. Mountain views, room for horses, and the city close by. Book your showing. (id:65958)

10-item due-diligence checklist. We can pre-flight most of these for you on a CMA call.
Comparable sales
Ask for 3–5 recent solds within ~1 km and the same beds/baths so the list price has context.
Property condition
Roof age, furnace age, hot-water tank age, electrical panel size, windows. Cosmetic vs structural.
Zoning
Confirm zoning matches your intent (single-family vs duplex vs secondary suite vs commercial).
Suite legality / potential
If suited or being marketed as suited: confirm permits, separate entrance, ceiling height, egress windows.
Monthly carrying cost
Mortgage + property tax + insurance + condo fee (if any) + utilities. Compare to your max budget.
Property taxes
Confirm the annual tax amount on the current assessment — and whether a reassessment is pending.
Insurance estimate
Get a same-day quote. Older homes, knob-and-tube wiring, polybutylene plumbing, flood plains all change the number.
Commute
Drive it (or transit it) at the actual time of day you'd commute. Map ETA lies during peak hours.
Deposit and financing conditions
Deposit size, financing condition window, condition removal date, possession date — all negotiable.
Inspection considerations
Budget for a home inspector ($500–700) and any specialty inspections (sewer scope, mould, asbestos for pre-1990 builds).
Rough ballpark only. Pick a down-payment option, then tap any underlined number below to plug in your real numbers — tax, condo fee, insurance, utilities. Total updates live. Confirm with a mortgage broker before writing an offer.
Cost lines (tax, condo, insurance, utilities) are editable inline above. These two control the mortgage payment math.
Approximation only. CMHC default insurance is included when down payment is under 20%. Property tax and condo fees come from MLS when listed and may not reflect the current billing year. Suite rental income depends on permits, market rent, and vacancy — confirm with a property manager. Always validate your scenario with a mortgage broker and your insurance provider before writing an offer.
We'll reply by text within a few hours. Comparable sales, condition flags, things worth checking — sent before you book a showing.
