Open House Sun from 1-4. Welcome to your dream country home in a peaceful and picturesque setting with pavement to your door and an ample supply of amazing water. 20 acres of mixed forest and pasture backs onto two quarter sections of Crown land just 20 minutes from Cochrane and 35 minutes from NW Calgary - you can have it all.

The living areas on the main floor have richly coloured hard wood floors. A room on the main floor can be used for multiple purposes including a fourth bedroom. The wide staircase (3.5 ft) brings you luxuriously into an open area on the second floor that could be used as an office space, playroom, exercise area, reading nook, or hobby area. The upstairs boasts three spacious bedrooms and two full baths, including Jaccuzi tubs. The master bedroom is outfitted with California Closets shelving. The basement is unfinished with some roughed in walls and storage shelving. The well is located in the cold room. Children can play on the swing set, in the playhouse, in the tree house, or in nature itself. The home is in the Westbrook School catchment area, and there are buses to Cochrane as well.
