A Place of Peace, Purpose, and Preservation
Tucked into the foothills of Mountain View County lies a truly remarkable legacy property — a 149.68-acre haven held across two separate titles, where cultivated land, protected forest, and the Little Red Deer River come together in quiet harmony. Located just 20 minutes from Sundre and approximately one hour from both Calgary and Banff, this rare offering blends natural beauty, agricultural opportunity, and ecological stewardship into one unforgettable landscape.
At the heart of the property is a profound commitment to conservation. Over 105 acres of mature spruce and poplar forest are protected under a registered conservation easement, preserving the land as part of a vital wildlife corridor. This sanctuary provides shelter for elk, moose, deer, foxes, owls, woodpeckers, and a rich variety of birdlife. No hunting and no tree harvesting are permitted, allowing the forest to remain untouched, thriving, and ecologically intact for generations to come.
Complementing the forest’s serenity is 44.48 acres of open, cultivated farmland, offering the perfect balance between wild and worked landscapes — a canvas for privacy, productivity, or the freedom to shape what comes next.
The Home at the Heart of the Land
Nestled into the trees, the 2,600+ square foot home, lovingly maintained, offers a warm and inviting retreat. Designed to harmonize with its surroundings, the home features expansive windows that frame views of the forest, vaulted ceilings, rich wood accents, and a thoughtful, functional layout. Whether as a full-time residence or a weekend escape, it provides a grounded, peaceful base for a life lived close to nature.
Along the western boundary, the Little Red Deer River winds for nearly one kilometre, its gravel bars, gentle current, and clear waters offering a constant invitation for quiet reflection, solitude, and immersion in the natural world.
The 44-acre parcel of farmland offers exceptional flexibility for the future — whether as the site of a second home, guest residence, or multi-generational retreat, or developed with equestrian facilities like a riding arena, barn, and fenced pastures. Framed by the rolling foothills and sheltered by the surrounding forest, this land embodies both opportunity and sanctuary.
The contrast between the open meadow and the forest’s edge is nothing short of stunning — a perfect expression of the land’s diversity, balance, and timeless appeal.
A Legacy of Stewardship and Sustainability
For over four decades, the current owners have protected and nurtured this land with purpose and reverence. Their care is evident in the flourishing ecosystem, the untouched trees, and the presence of elk, moose, deer, red foxes, owls, woodpeckers, and more than a dozen migratory bird species. The conservation easement is not just a legal instrument—it is a reflection of the philosophy that shaped this land into what it is today: a living, breathing sanctuary.
Now, the opportunity to steward this legacy is yours.
