    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.
