Dreaming of trading your nosy city neighbors for a flock of chickadees? 🌲Before you buy a tractor and start wearing flannel full-time, here is a quick reality check on acreage living:

🚰 The Secret Plumbing: Say goodbye to city water treatment. Out here, you are the water plant manager. You'll need to know your well from your cistern, and yes, septic tanks require feelings and maintenance.

🚜 The Driveway Workout: A 100-foot driveway is beautiful until June's rain grows the grass by an inch a minute, or January dumps a drift across it. Budget for a riding mower and a very big shovel.

🐓 The Freedom Rules: You can finally park your RV without a nasty note from the HOA or a ticket, but always double-check county rules before building a 4-car mega-shop for your hobbies.

If you've checked those boxes and are ready to trade traffic for trees—and you aren't afraid of a little sweat equity we have the ultimate fixer-upper jackpot:

🚨 High Point Estates Jackpot! 2-Acre Private Oasis 🌲👀

If you’re a contractor, investor, or DIY enthusiast with a big vision, this 2,664 sq ft country estate is your ultimate canvas. It’s being sold 100% "as-is"—meaning it needs a major deep clean, updating, and TLC—but the equity potential in this prestigious community is massive. 🔨💰

The Bones:

🌲 The Lot: 2 private, maturely treed acres just minutes from Chestermere.

🏰 The Space: 5 massive upper bedrooms (including a huge primary suite) + a sunroom and finished basement with a built-in bar.

🚗 The Extras: Heated triple attached garage, storage sheds, and a brand-new furnace already installed!

🚌 The Cheat Code: Total country peace with easy access to Hwy 1 and Glenmore Trail. Plus, the school bus stops right at your driveway!

🍸 Full Wet Bar / Kitchenette: Keep the drinks cold and snacks ready without running upstairs.

🚪 True Walkout Access: Flows directly to a covered lower patio and beautifully landscaped tiered yard backing The Lakes of Muirfield Golf Course.

🛏️ Guest Suite: Includes a full 4th bedroom + full bathroom—ideal for teens, long-term guests, or in-laws.

Plus, you get over 3,600 sq. ft. of luxury, a chef's Viking kitchen upstairs, and a 20-minute drive to Calgary's east end. 🏎️💨

The ultimate opportunity to level up your portfolio in Calgary’s inner-city now under 600K!! 🔨

Attention builders, developers, and forward-thinking investors! With Calgary’s real estate landscape continuously evolving, securing prime R-CG zoned land in a high-demand inner-city community like Highland Park is the holy grail of wealth generation.

Why is this 60' x 97' lot a total goldmine for your next project?

💰 The R-CG Advantage: Tap into incredible density potential. This zoning allows for multi-unit redevelopment, think row housing, townhomes, or a multi-suite cash-flowing masterpiece (subject to City approval).

📍 Location, Location, Location: Tucked away on a quiet street but located just minutes from downtown, major transit, shopping, and parks. It’s exactly where modern renters and buyers want to live.

🛠️ The Setup: There’s currently a 778 sq. ft. bungalow on site with a great oversized double garage/workshop. While the home is sold "as-is, where-is," it provides the perfect footprint to hold or prep for your build.

Opportunities to grab premium, wide redevelopment parcels in rapidly transforming neighborhoods like Highland Park are getting harder to find by the day. Don't wait until the next developer beats you to the punch!

Ready to run the numbers on your next profitable development?
