Acreages in Foothills County
The Municipal District of Foothills to the south of Calgary spans more than 3,600 square kilometres and is where you’ll find Okotoks, High River, Black Diamond and other towns and villages. Exclusive communities like Heritage Pointe are also found in the region.
The diverse topography of the Foothills M.D. includes beautiful rolling foothills amid river valleys and patches of aspen groves with the Rocky Mountains on the horizon, making the Foothills a go-to area for buyers browsing acreages for sale near Calgary.
The inherent scenery of the area typically provides additional layers of privacy while also keeping many home owners in awe with the sheer beauty of the panoramic views often seen from home.
Acreages in Rocky View County
The Municipal District of Rocky View includes rural areas to the west, north and east of Calgary and is home to Airdrie, Bragg Creek, Cochrane, and many subdivision communities like Bearspaw, Silverhorn and Church Ranches.
Cochrane is a major amenity resource for rural homeowners in Rocky View County who prefer to avoid the City of Calgary whenever possible. With about 30,000 people, you can find all the shops and services you need in the town including grocers, home department stores and professional services.
Like in the Foothills, rural properties in Rocky View are found amid stunning landscapes which include rolling prairies and foothills with mountain views to the west.
Rivers, creeks and ponds are also found throughout the area, adding even more breathtaking scenery and appeal to these acreages near Calgary.
Acreages in Bearspaw
Bearspaw is another highly sought-after rural area where you’ll find some of the most exclusive Calgary acreages for sale on the MLS®. Located in Rocky View County, the area is well known for its luxurious bungalow acreages in sought-after subdivisions such as Watermark at Bearspaw.
Many homes in the area enjoy unobstructed views of the beautiful rolling foothills and Rocky Mountains to the west.

Acreages in Wheatland County
Wheatland County is another municipal district in Southern Alberta found east of Calgary. It is home to municipalities such as Strathmore and Carseland, as well as many rural properties where you'll find scenic prairie views.
Acreages for sale in Wheatland County offer exceptional privacy away from the hustle and bustle of the big city. Many of these rural homeowners tend to farmland; the county contributes immensely to Alberta's agricultural production with over 453,000 hectares of farmland.
Rural Lifestyle Near the City
Calgary acreages are the perfect type of residence to create lasting memories with family and loved ones. And that doesn’t mean seclusion, either. Many rural homes are found in exclusive estate-style communities with interconnecting pathways which are great for children to connect with new friends. Parents also get to know one another as they look out for each other’s best interests and watch over children.
Urban professionals with families and empty nesters all look to rural homes as a reprieve from the fast-paced lifestyle of the big city. Waking up to scenic views of the foothills and Rockies to the west while fresh mountain air whisps under the nose is something any homeowner can appreciate!
Many residents in the Municipal Districts of Foothills and Rockyview choose these areas to be able to frequent the mountains for leisure and recreation to do what they love. Hiking, skiing, fishing, camping and other related activities are all within an arms' reach; escaping to the stunning Albertan countryside while avoiding big city traffic is priceless for many rural residents near Calgary.
