Property description for 162104 376 Street W, Rural Foothills County, Ab T0L 1W2

Set against the foothills with clear, direct views of the Rockies and iconic Moose Mountain, this nearly 18 ACRE equestrian estate offers an exceptional setting just minutes from Bragg Creek. At its heart is an authentic DOUGLAS FIR LOG HOME, surrounded by open land and thoughtfully designed for life with horses. Wake to mountain views, spend the morning at the barn, and ride year round in your own INDOOR ARENA. Inside, the renovated kitchen pairs custom cabinetry, NATURAL QUARTZITE and Wolf and Sub Zero appliances with an oversized LUX picture window and breakfast bar, creating a front row seat to the sunrise and horses over morning coffee. Wide plank HARDWOOD, natural slate, vertical grain fir and a TWO SIDED wood burning fireplace bring warmth and character throughout the home. The bathrooms continue that level of finish with IN-FLOOR HEATING, natural slate and ITALIAN PORCELAIN, while the primary ensuite is elevated by a custom four zone STEAM SHOWER. But the transformation goes far beyond what you can see. This legacy home has been extensively reimagined for long term ownership, with an uncompromising approach to quality and significant investment made not only in its finishes, but in the systems, efficiency and infrastructure behind them. The home’s Douglas Fir exterior has received extensive professional care and preservation, including interior/exterior chinking to enhance efficiency, longevity and year round comfort. The building envelope and insulation were extensively upgraded, all WINDOWS and DOORS replaced with TRIPLE PANE LUX units, Poly B replaced with PEX, electrical service upgraded to 200 amps, HVAC comprehensively modernized, and a new Orenco AdvanTex septic system installed. Above it all is a DECRA STONE COATED STEEL ROOF with continuous ridge ventilation. The result is a turnkey residence that preserves the character and craftsmanship of a log home while delivering updated infrastructure designed for the decades ahead. That same level of thought and investment extends beyond the home. This is not simply an acreage where horses can be kept, it is a genuine equestrian property designed around the lifestyle. A six stall barn with Hi Hog stalls, indoor riding arena, multiple fenced paddocks with AUTOMATIC WATERERS, dedicated barn water storage and independent 100 AMP electrical service create a highly functional setup for keeping and riding horses at home. The arena features a clay base with sand footing, while extensive improvements to fencing, drainage and water delivery further support the property's year round functionality. Despite the sense of privacy and escape, the property remains remarkably connected. Bragg Creek is only minutes away, Calgary approx. 30 minutes, and the Rocky Mountains just a short drive from your door. Fully renovated and equestrian ready, this rare foothills estate combines mountain views, an authentic log home and complete equestrian facilities in a property that truly must be experienced in person to be appreciated.
