This is an exceptional opportunity to purchase one of the largest properties in this fully ‘sold out’ acreage community conveniently located minutes from Gull Lake and from Rimbey AB. This 14.48 acre parcel offers scenic rolling aspens with carefully developed & maintained trails, a wildlife watering pond, full perimeter fencing, a double gated approach, a prepared new home building site and much more. Value is assured with amenities including a recently built Carriage House with a finished garage below for your vehicles and toys; it also comes with an exterior RV hook-up. A septic tank with a field, a well with a constant pressure system plus natural gas and power, not only meet the requirements of the existing structure but potentially those of a new build. As you enter the carriage house on the ground level, you are in a convenient mud room with a closet and finished storage space with ample room for an additional closet. The bright upper level has a full kitchen with s/s appliances and a wrap around counter which opens to a dining and living room where a well positioned wood stove can be enjoyed along with scenic views. This well constructed thermal carriage house, with triple pane windows, also has two bedrooms with good closet space, a 3 piece bathroom with a five foot shower and a mechanical room prepped for a washer and dryer. The upper living space also includes a large east facing deck. A surprising additional value is found in a cared for ‘hidden gem’ which comes in the form of an off-grid cabin used for years by a local x-country ski club and many others. Lots of laughs and happy memories were made sitting around the cozy fireplace while enjoying an apres ski, hike or bike. Other secondary buildings include a secure storage shed and a firewood shed. This acreage has wild hazel nuts, raspberries, pin cherries, saskatoons, gooseberries, chokecherries and lots of different mushrooms and consequently, it attracts a lot of birds and animals. This property offers good future potential with undeveloped County road reserves on the north and west boundaries. Years ago, the current owners were the first to view and purchase a 1/4 section of this land when it became available. Over time the land was subdivided and homes were built. These last 14.48 acres were the owners’ favorite, but the time has come to sell.

Buying and Selling Acreages Under $500,000

Acreages for sale under $500,000 may include small rural properties, older country homes, hobby farms, vacant land and affordable acreages located throughout Southern and Central Alberta.

Buyers searching for acreages for sale under $500,000 should be prepared for inventory to vary by location and market conditions. Properties closer to Calgary may be limited within this price range, while additional options may be available farther from the city or near smaller rural communities.

Listings within this budget can include homes requiring renovations, smaller parcels, land without a residence or properties with older outbuildings and rural utility systems. Each listing should be reviewed carefully to determine what is included and whether it meets the buyer’s intended use.

  • Location and Commute Consider the distance to Calgary, nearby towns, year-round road access, schools, shopping, healthcare and essential services.
  • Rural Property Systems Review the water source, septic system, heating, utilities, access roads, fencing, drainage, garages and outbuildings.
  • Land Use and Condition Confirm zoning, permitted uses, parcel boundaries, property condition, renovation requirements and restrictions affecting animals or future development.

Guidance for Acreage Buyers

Diane Richardson can help buyers compare available rural properties, arrange private showings and identify important questions to investigate before making an offer. Depending on the property, buyers may require additional inspections or professional advice concerning the residence, well, septic system, outbuildings and land.

It is also important to confirm financing requirements early. Rural properties, vacant land and homes needing substantial repairs may be assessed differently by lenders than conventional urban homes.

Selling an Affordable Acreage

Sellers should clearly present the home, parcel size, water and septic systems, outbuildings, access, zoning and recent improvements. Accurate property information helps buyers understand the value and practical use of the acreage.

Diane can help review comparable rural listings, identify marketable property features and develop an appropriate pricing and presentation strategy. Property owners can also request a property evaluation before preparing their acreage for sale.

For help buying or selling an acreage under $500,000, contact Diane Richardson at 403.397.3706 or diane@mypadcalgary.com. Listing availability and prices can change without notice.
