    Set on 2.67 acres in Blindman Ridge, Red Deer County, this walkout bungalow with an attached triple-car garage is the kind of property that changes how you spend your time. Unwind in nature with scenic walking trails leading down to the Blindman River. Evenings slow down here—whether you’re on the composite deck, gathered around the firepit, or picking fresh raspberries from your own garden. And with pavement right to your driveway, you get the full acreage experience without ever touching gravel, all just 15 minutes from Red Deer. The main living space is where the home comes to life. A wood-burning stove anchors the living room, creating a natural gathering point and adding warmth that you can feel the moment you walk in. Large windows bring in natural light and frame the surrounding landscape, keeping you connected to the outdoors year-round, while hardwood floors add warmth and depth underfoot.

A stunning stone backsplash and stainless steel wall-mounted chimney hood fan add both texture and presence, while quality appliances — including a KitchenAid refrigerator and dishwasher, bring reliability where it matters most. Positioned to take advantage of the views, the dining area becomes more than just a place to eat — it’s where you slow down and take in the setting around you. The home is thoughtfully designed with two bedrooms on the main floor, including a spacious primary retreat with its own 6-piece ensuite, complete with dual vanities, a stand-up shower, and a deep soaking tub — a space to unwind at the end of the day. The front bedroom offers flexibility and is currently being used as a home office. Laundry is also conveniently located on the main level in a spacious room with ample cabinetry, a washup sink, and direct access to the garage, along with a 4-piece bathroom for added practicality.

With generous windows bringing in natural light, the lower level feels open and inviting, offering flexibility for family, guests, or multi-purpose use. This property is offering something different — space, privacy, and direct access to nature in a setting that’s hard to replicate. More details

    Spring is finally in the air, and with it comes a fresh opportunity to claim something truly rare. Properties like this do not come up often. Three private acres just minutes from town, a dream shop that feels more like a sanctuary, and a home that blends country warmth with elevated design. It is the kind of place people wait for. Just north of Sylvan Lake, this property gives you the rare mix of freedom, space, and connection. The waters edge is a short stroll , downtown is just 7 minutes away and Red Deer is only 20, but it feels like a different world in Silver Springs. For anyone who lights up at the idea of a dream garage, this one’s something else. Heated by gas or the wood stove, with 13-foot ceilings, drive-through doors, a half bath and nearly 1,300 square feet to play with, it’s more than a garage. It’s a shop, a retreat, a space to build, fix, create, workout or just hang out. Upstairs, the home is a pinch of country, but heavy on luxury. Think wide-open spaces, vaulted ceilings, skylit dormers, and a show-stopping stone fireplace. The kitchen pops with white cabinetry, quartz waterfall counters and sleek black stainless appliances. From the main living area, step onto the composite deck and breathe in the Southwestern view of treetops, big skies, and glimpses of the lake. The primary suite is its own little hideaway, complete with a walk-in closet, makeup desk, four-piece ensuite, and a private patio perfect for morning coffee or an evening nightcap. Two more bright bedrooms and a stylish main bath with stand-alone tub and separate shower offer comfort for kids or guests. If the adults all have their space, then the upper loft is the ultimate kid zone, ideal for a playroom, homework space or sleepovers. Outside, everything has its place. Three matching sheds, RV parking with power, a firepit by the seasonal pond, and mature spruce trees that offer shelter and privacy, but could open up for even more of that lake view. This home is loaded with thoughtful extras: central A/C, water softener, central vac, outdoor shower, Sonos system, smart lighting, plugs and thermostats, all the little things that make life smoother and more connected. A paved road leads you straight to the property, making every drive in feel like a breath of fresh air. Whether you're a young couple, a hands-on creator, or someone craving more sky and stillness, this home isn't just about square footage, it's about breathing room, balance, and the kind of place that sparks inspiration.

Common Questions: Sylvan Lake Real Estate & Acreages

1. Are there environmental regulations for building on Sylvan Lake acreages?

Yes. Because Sylvan Lake is a protected recreational resource, properties within the watershed or near the shoreline are subject to specific development guidelines designed to protect water quality. Whether you are looking at a lakefront property or a tiered acreage with a view, it is essential to review the Red Deer County Land Use Bylaws to understand setbacks and building requirements.


2. How do private water and septic systems work near the lake?

Most acreages for sale in Sylvan Lake rely on private wells and onsite wastewater treatment systems. In the lake region, ensuring your septic system meets modern environmental standards is a priority during the purchase process. You can refer to my Septic System 101 Guide for technical details on maintenance and inspections.


3. What is the difference between a lakefront and a lake-view acreage?

Lakefront properties provide direct access to the water but often come with more stringent environmental restrictions. Lake-view acreages, often located on the ridgelines of Red Deer County, offer expansive vistas of the water and surrounding countryside while typically providing more privacy and land for shops or equestrian facilities.


4. Is Sylvan Lake a good location for a year-round residence?

Absolutely. While famous for summer boating, Sylvan Lake is a thriving year-round community with excellent schools, healthcare, and retail. Many acreage owners choose this region for its "vacation at home" lifestyle, enjoying ice fishing and skating in the winter and hiking in the summer.


5. How can I get an evaluation for my Sylvan Lake property?

If you are thinking of selling your lakeside estate or rural acreage, I provide professional market evaluations that account for the unique value of lake-proximity and high-end rural infrastructure. You can request a free home value report through my valuation tool.
