    27.4 acre property with good future development potential, located in Foothills County in the Davisburg area, just 8 kms east of the Highway 2/ Okotoks overpass and connected to Highway # 552 at 104 st E. The land is currently in hay and is undulating throughout with very nice rolling terrain and in terms of stewardship, has been very well managed for several years. Land use in the region is mixed with acreages or agricultural pursuits and in the immediate vicinity to this property, Country Residential with multi lot acreages is a dominant form of development. In terms of Subdivision potential this parcel is ready for development. It is located in the “Central District” of Foothills County, where under their “Growth Management Strategy ” policy, future planning involving projects such as “Country Residential” acreage development is expected to likely occur. Further- In terms of lot density, under the Foothills County “Municipal Development Plan 2010”, where 1 lot per 5 acres is the current Country Residential development guideline, this property would therefore theoretically be able to be developed fully into at least 5 lots (subject to the normal County application process and Council final approval). Given current area market price trends, this property is attractively priced at $899K to provide the potential developer sufficient room to easily recover planning and development costs. With this great info you will have a pretty good idea on what versatility this land has. There was also a " Seasonal drainage course " developed on the property for any possible moisture re run off etc. On another aspect of this property would be to enjoy the vast acreage, location and the seclusion to building a beautiful home with Recreational or Hobby farm in mind. Build your improvements on the property to fit in any future plans to develop. The area is gorgeous and close proximity to the Davisburg Hall, the Davisburg Church .

    Welcome to the RL7 Ranch, one of Southern Alberta’s most exceptional ranch properties. This 640 acre deeded section of the RL7 Ranch is located on the Eastern Slopes of the Alberta Rockies, featuring lush native grassland, stands of mature spruce and aspen, picturesque benches and ridges with elevations ranging from 4370’ to 4920’. Every part of the ranch offers commanding views of prominent Eastern Slope landmarks. Rich in varied water resources, there are numerous developed wells, flowing springs, and dugouts that are dispersed throughout the property. Newly established hay fields encompass 200 acres and the highly productive soils have never required synthetic fertilizers. This section of the RL7 Ranch is located in a prime natural corridor only one mile from 1500 square miles of Kananaskis Country, with no other housing or development on the Western or Southern boundaries, which both border Crown Land! This parcel is situated on the Eastern flank of John Ware Ridge, in an area made of larger holdings and absent of all oil and gas development. Resident wildlife includes elk, deer, moose, wild turkey, and bear, while waterfowl nest on the larger dugouts. There is abundant forage for both livestock and wildlife. The ranch has two well-updated homes, originally built in the 80’s and 60’s, that could be owner occupied or generate reliable rental income. The main house is ~1800sf w/ 3 beds & 3 baths & dbl attached garage. The second house is ~1000sf w/ 3 beds & 1.5 baths. A large heated shop (2000sf) and a second equipment shed (2000sf) provide additional working/storage space. The fencing is robust, with significant updates, and there is a very complete livestock handling system. All infrastructure has been designed with an awareness and sensitivity to the land and responsible resource management, as well as maintaining the quality of operations for generations to come. The RL7 Ranch is located quietly away from major traffic, two miles from asphalt on well maintained Foothills County roads. Access is convenient to Hwy 22 South or Hwy 546 and this expansive ranch is only 9 minutes to Diamond Valley, 30 minutes to SW Calgary or 60 minutes to Calgary International Airport. It is exceptionally rare for a parcel of this size to come available, even rarer to be complete as a working ranch! This is an opportunity not to be missed! More details

    A once-in-a-lifetime opportunity awaits the visionary investor or a hands-on renovator. This property is a true handyman's special, offering an incredible opportunity to create the home of your dreams. Situated on a serene 6.99-acre parcel of beautiful prairie land, this expansive 3,186 sq ft home is a rare find with a storied past and unlimited potential. The original structure, dating back to the early 1900s, was lovingly renovated and expanded in 2005. The home was recently moved to this property in 2023 and placed on a new, nine-foot poured concrete foundation, marking the first step in its grand transformation. Inside, you'll find an impressive layout with four large bedrooms, two bathrooms, and spacious, light-filled rooms. Features include hardwood floors and a massive kitchen with granite countertops, ample storage, and a gas range with stainless steel appliances. This property is a project for those with a keen eye for value and a desire for sweat equity. The home is being sold as-is-where-is and requires significant work to obtain occupancy. The breezeway and oversized double garage need to be reattached, and the foundation and basement, currently gravel-floored, require finishing. Utilities are available at the road, but the home is not yet connected to gas, electricity, or septic. Water is available from a drilled well but will need to be connected to the home. A quote for the work needed to complete the project and other documents are available upon request. The location is unparalleled. Enjoy the tranquility of rural living while being just a 15-minute commute to South Calgary or Okotoks. The property is conveniently located near Heritage Heights School and Scott Seaman Sports Rink. Important Note: This is an unfinished property. It does not have occupancy or utilities. Access to the basement is currently not available, and the foundation needs to be sealed, and windows installed. Please do not enter the property without a private showing request. Expired development permits may be extended with the county with request. This is a unique chance to acquire a vast property and customize it from the ground up to your exact specifications. Don't miss this rare opportunity to build your future. More details
