    There's a particular kind of quiet that only exists at the end of a dead-end road — and that's exactly where this 14.4-acre property sits, steps from Crown land with nothing but forest and sky beyond the fence line. This is a place built for the way you actually want to live. The land is a mix of forest and open pasture, fully fenced and ready for horses, with two shelters, an automatic waterer, and a round pen already in place. Kids have room to roam, with a trampoline and playhouse tucked into the yard. At 2,844 square feet across two levels, the log home has room for everyone — 1,311 on the main floor and 1,463 below. Two stone fireplaces anchor the living spaces, one on each level, with the lower walk-out opening straight onto the property. Four bedrooms, two bathrooms, and two distinct living areas complete the space. The wraparound deck is where you'll end up most evenings, watching the light change over the trees. Please do not bring any dogs to the property. Thank you. Inside, the details have been thought through. Black walnut counters. Soft vinyl flooring chosen specifically because it moves with the natural ebb and flow of the log home. Some tongue and groove ceilings in the lower level, new carpet in two of the downstairs rooms, a new roof and a fresh coat of 15 year stain are just some of the recent upgrades. The shop is a partitioned double garage converted into a functional workshop — glycol in-floor heating is roughed in and ready for a boiler, and a pellet stove keeps it comfortable in the colder season. A carport on concrete blocks adds covered parking without a permanent footprint. What you're really buying here is distance — from noise, from neighbours, from the feeling of being on top of everyone else. And yet you're not remote: Sundre is 28 minutes away, Cochrane about an hour, so you're private without being cut off. If you've been looking for a place where the kids can roam, the horses have room to be horses, and you are surrounded by the quiet of nature — this is it. More details

    Set within the rolling foothills of Alberta's eastern Rockies, 32 Carraig Ridge is a study in architecture, landscape, and restraint. Occupying a 2.1-acre homesite within the private gated enclave of Carraig Ridge, the residence was conceived by internationally acclaimed Saunders Architecture as a contemporary response to its extraordinary setting. Positioned along a forested ridgeline above Anna Lake, the home appears to emerge naturally from the land itself, framed by mature spruce and expansive views stretching across the foothills toward the Rocky Mountains beyond. The striking Y-shaped form is both sculptural and purposeful. Each wing is oriented to capture a distinct perspective of the surrounding landscape—morning light filtering through the trees, reflections across the lake below, and distant mountain silhouettes that shift with the seasons. Floor-to-ceiling glazing dissolves the boundary between indoors and out, creating a constant dialogue between architecture and nature. Inside, nearly 4,000 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space balances warmth with modern minimalism. Natural materials, soaring ceilings, and carefully framed sightlines draw the eye outward, while expansive terraces extend the living experience into the landscape. The principal living spaces are designed for gathering, anchored by the well-appointed chef's kitchen and surrounded by uninterrupted views of the foothills. The primary suite occupies its own private wing, while guest accommodations and a flexible studio or office offer space for family, creativity, or quiet retreat. Yet the true luxury here is space. Carraig Ridge is unlike any other residential offering in the region. Spanning approximately 650 acres of protected foothills landscape, with more than 500 acres preserved in their natural state, the community consists of just 44 estate homesites. Residents collectively steward a vast expanse of wilderness where native grasses, forests, wetlands, and wildlife remain the defining features of daily life. Located between Calgary and Canmore, Carraig Ridge offers a rare balance of accessibility and seclusion. International flights, urban amenities, world-class skiing, mountain biking, and hiking are all within easy reach, yet life here feels distinctly removed from the pace of the city. Importantly, this foothills location falls outside Canada's foreign buyer restrictions, presenting a rare opportunity for international purchasers seeking ownership in one of Western Canada's most compelling architectural communities. Part contemporary retreat, part design statement, and part wilderness sanctuary, 32 Carraig Ridge represents a rare convergence of architecture and landscape—an opportunity to experience the Canadian foothills through a lens of exceptional design.
