Urban Acreage Oasis in the Centre of Okotoks: A Rare Opportunity for Privacy, Character, and Flexibility
If you’ve been dreaming of acreage living without giving up the perks of town, this is the one you’ve been waiting for.
This extraordinary 13.84-acre property sits right in the centre of downtown Okotoks—an urban acreage unlike anything else on the market. Tucked away in the scenic Sheep River Valley, this one-of-a-kind estate offers complete seclusion and natural beauty, while still being within walking distance to shops, restaurants, schools, and recreation. It’s more than a home—it’s a lifestyle.
A Home Built for Generations
Crafted with precision and pride, this custom two-storey home offers over 4,100 sq ft of finished living space, showcasing award-winning craftsmanship and an energy-efficient build. From solid fir trim and 3-inch hardwood floors to locally sourced full-bed sandstone and fieldstone masonry, this home was built to last—and built to impress.
Inside, the layout is designed for comfortable, functional living:
- A chef’s kitchen with solid cherry cabinets, granite countertops, pull-out pantry, island seating, and dedicated coffee station.
- An open-concept living and dining area, centered around a Rumford-style stone fireplace—ideal for cozy evenings or elegant gatherings.
- A private main-floor office and three decks that overlook your private wooded oasis.
- Oversized windows throughout offer sunrise-to-sunset views and flood the home with natural light.
Room to Grow, Work, and Host
Upstairs, you'll find three generous bedrooms, two private balconies, and a library/flex space that adapts to your needs. The laundry room, which opens to a balcony, was once a kitchenette—with the plumbing and wiring still intact, it could easily be repurposed for multigenerational living or added function.
Above the garage sits a bonus studio/office space with its own stair access—perfect for a home-based business, creative studio, or gym. Heated tile floors, 7 large windows, hardwired data lines, and multiple entry options make it as versatile as it is private.
Income or In-Law Potential with Legal Suite
The ground-level legal 1-bedroom suite has both front and rear access, its own kitchen and laundry, independent utilities, and separate living space—ideal for guests, family, or income potential. A rare and valuable feature in an acreage-style property within town limits.
Smart, Safe, and Secure
- Triple-pane windows
- R30 wall and R50 attic insulation
- Hardwired security system (8 cameras, motion sensors, glass-break detectors, electronic door locks)
- Home pre-wired for an electric gated entry system
- 50-year shingles, fir timber framing, and fir interior doors and casings
Natural Beauty at Your Doorstep
Whether you're relaxing on one of the decks or exploring the river pathways just beyond your driveway, this property lets you reconnect with nature while staying close to everything you need. Wildlife, mature trees, and total privacy surround you—right in town.
And if you're looking for even more space, an adjacent 21-acre parcel is also available for purchase.
Why This Home Stands Out
- Unmatched location: In-town acreage backing onto greenspace in the Sheep River Valley
- Custom craftsmanship: Stone, timber, and fir throughout
- Flexible living: Bonus studio, legal suite, and multigenerational layout
- Urban convenience: Walking distance to everything Okotoks has to offer
- Energy efficiency and security: Built with care, designed to last
