The lake is waiting, right across the street, the walking path is just beyond your backyard, and the best of the Crystal Shores lifestyle begins the moment you step outside. This beautifully updated, fully developed home offers something increasingly hard to find: an established lake community, a mature landscaped yard and a home where the big ticket items have already been taken care of. Move in, unpack and start enjoying it. Inside, the home is warm, bright and thoughtfully designed for everyday living. Generous gathering spaces create an easy flow for family life and entertaining, while the updated kitchen sits comfortably at the heart of the home. Upstairs, well appointed bedrooms plus a HUGE primary suite provide space to retreat, and the fully finished basement gives you even more room to spread out, entertain or create a space entirely your own. There is also a laundry chute on the upper and main floors! But this home really comes alive outside. Gather with friends on the deck, fire up the GAS barbecue, unwind in the HOT TUB, or simply enjoy the privacy created by mature landscaping. With the walking path directly behind the property, evening strolls, bike rides and neighborhood adventures are literally out your back door. And then there is the lake. Crystal Shores Lake is right across the street. Think spontaneous summer afternoons at the beach, paddleboards and swimming, kids heading to the water, and those warm evenings when going to the lake doesn't require packing the car because you're already there. It is the kind of location that changes how you live. With significant big ticket updates already completed, a finished basement, established landscaping and outdoor spaces ready for entertaining, you can skip the renovation list and get straight to living.

    Set on nearly five acres in the De Winton area of Foothills County, this property offers the rare combination of peaceful country living, impressive city views and quick access to Calgary. The home has been thoughtfully updated to create a brighter, more open and functional living space, while the land, shop and fenced pasture make this a property with plenty to offer beyond the house itself. At the heart of the home is the renovated, chef-inspired kitchen. A wall was removed to open the kitchen to the adjoining living areas, allowing more natural light to flow through the main floor and creating a much more connected space for everyday living and entertaining. The kitchen features a 48-inch Wolf gas range with matching Wolf hood fan, Jenn-Air refrigerator and separate Jenn-Air electric wall oven. The sink was relocated as part of the redesign, improving both the layout and functionality of the space. Most of the windows throughout the home have also been replaced, including larger windows upstairs that bring in additional natural light and help showcase the surrounding views. Outside, the property offers approximately four acres of fenced pasture complete with a horse shelter, providing excellent space for horses or other acreage pursuits. The balance of the property offers room to enjoy the outdoors, garden, entertain or simply appreciate the privacy and quiet that comes with country living. A major highlight is the heated and insulated shop, complete with its own 100-amp electrical service. Whether you need space for vehicles, equipment, woodworking, hobbies, storage or a serious workspace, this is the kind of shop that adds real versatility to an acreage. Perhaps most impressive is the setting. From the property you can enjoy views toward the city while still coming home to the peace and quiet of the countryside. It feels removed from the pace of urban living, yet Calgary and the amenities of the south end of the city remain conveniently close. With an updated home, high-end kitchen, heated shop, fenced pasture and nearly five acres in a highly desirable Foothills County location, this is an acreage that offers both lifestyle and practicality.

What Types of Southern Alberta Homes Can You Find?

Southern Alberta offers a wide range of homes, from affordable houses in smaller communities to rural homes with land, family properties near services and country homes with more privacy.

Small-Town Houses

A good fit for buyers who want community, schools, local services and a quieter pace without being too far from larger centres.

Rural Homes

Rural homes may offer more space, privacy, larger yards, outbuildings, gardens, room for animals or a country setting outside town limits.

Affordable Homes

Many buyers explore Southern Alberta because it may offer more approachable price points than larger city markets, depending on location and condition.

Family Homes

Look for practical layouts, bedroom count, yard space, school access, recreation, commute time and nearby services that make everyday life easier.

Acreage-Style Properties

Some buyers start with a home search and discover they really want more land. Southern Alberta acreage options can offer space, privacy and rural flexibility.

Homes with Land or Outbuildings

A home with a shop, garage, barn, storage space or land can be useful for buyers with hobbies, equipment, animals or home-based work.

The right Southern Alberta home depends on how you want to live: close to services, tucked into a smaller town, or out in the country with more room around you.

Popular Areas for Southern Alberta Homes

Southern Alberta includes many different housing markets, from small towns and rural communities to country properties and homes near larger service centres. Looking by area can help you narrow the search more quickly.

If you are open to more than one community, compare areas by schools, services, highway access, property type, price range and how each place feels in day-to-day life.

What to Consider Before Buying a Home in Southern Alberta

Buying in Southern Alberta can be a smart move, especially if you want more space, better value or a quieter community. The key is choosing a home and location that fit your daily routine, not just your budget.

Community Fit

Think about whether you want a small town, rural setting, larger service centre or acreage-style property. The right community should feel comfortable for your lifestyle.

Schools & Services

Review school access, healthcare, groceries, recreation, trades, childcare, senior services and how far you want to drive for regular errands.

Commute & Road Access

Look at highway access, winter driving, commute times, school bus routes, work travel and how easily friends or family can reach the property.

Home Condition

Pay close attention to roof age, windows, heating, plumbing, electrical, foundation, drainage, insulation, renovations and whether the home has been well cared for.

Rural Property Details

If the home is outside town, review water, septic, utilities, internet, road maintenance, zoning, outbuildings and land use before you move ahead.

Long-Term Resale

Consider location, condition, layout, yard, services, road access and buyer demand. A home should work for you now and still make sense when it is time to sell.

Diane can help you compare Southern Alberta homes by community, property type, condition, value and long-term fit before you decide which listings are worth seeing in person.
