If you look at many new residential communities today, it seems houses are creeping ever closer, and privacy seems like a luxury of the past. You may get to know your neighbours in ways you never wanted to, and you’d rather remain in your less-than-stellar current home instead of getting that snuggly with strangers mere feet away from you.

Luckily, there are several spacious, open communities right here in Calgary that offer country-like settings. You’ll never know you have neighbours at all with the vast space, primed for privacy landscaping. Let’s take a tour of these communities.

Harmony

We begin our journey in Harmony, the only new master-planned community in Calgary’s West Side. With views of the mountains and convenient access to both Kananaskis and Calgary, you’ll have the perfect balance of city and country life.

Once the community of Harmony is completed, it will be nestled within a variety of recreational facilities such as golf courses, sporting fields and centres, riding stables, and a plethora of dining and shopping areas. While the community will be within short distance of these amenities, Harmony’s strategic location also offers remarkable space, privacy, and luxury.

Within this charming neighbourhood we are showcasing our Tamarack Collection of estate home plans. If you seek a single-level home with magnificent 12’ ceilings, the Niklaus II (2,440 square feet) bungalow might be your ideal home. Also in our Tamarack Collection is the Ames, a 2,881 square feet two-storey home with a craftsman-style ambience. See us at 19 & 23 Prairie Smoke Rise in Rocky View County to view these elegant estate show homes.

Cooper’s Crossing

Next on our journey is Cooper’s Crossing, a tranquil community connected to nature on the south side of Airdrie. More than 300 acres of lush parkland, trails, and water features provide a serene backdrop to the homes in this community. Cooper’s Crossing has been voted Airdrie’s number one community three years in a row, and it’s no question why once you’ve seen what it has to offer.

Within Cooper’s Crossing, enjoy a balance of luxury and a sense of community in our attached bungalow villas. 10’ ceilings masterfully exhibit space and indulgence in this unique home plan, while a step outdoors provides a partially covered, oversized deck perfect for outdoor entertaining. Floor-to-ceiling stone surrounds your two-way fireplace providing comfort and warmth to your space in addition to high style. Gorgeous craftsman-style elevations claim the utmost attention to detail, and the villa style plan of this community provides the privacy you seek within proximity to all of the city’s amenities.

Find our show homes at 202 & 206 Coopers Cove in Airdrie.

Dressage

Heading to the south side of Calgary, we find Dressage in Silverado. This vibrant Qualico community offers a distinct focus on landscape and environmental responsibility. This non-invasive planned community retains historical green spaces, wetlands, and boundless flora and fauna.

If you build a home within the community of Dressage, a free rain barrel will be provided, signifying your home’s compliance with the water conservation efforts of the land developers. With this responsibility in mind, your home will be constructed to meet strict conservation regulations, including low water usage faucets and fixtures, Energy Star washing machine and dishwasher, and insulated hot water taps.

The importance of detail is reflected through the architecture within the community - carefully deliberated to ensure new homes blend into its prestigious surroundings. Your new home will feel situated in the country, but you’ll be minutes away from a multitude of city amenities.

You can find our estate show home at 113 Silverado Crest Landing, open Saturday & Sundays noon till 5pm and Mondays 2pm - 8 pm.

The Point

Finally, in the west slopes of Calgary, we find The Point in Patterson Heights. With unique and spectacular views of the city’s downtown core, as well as the Bow River Valley, your home is an oasis like no other.

The modern architecture of this community sets the tone for progression and playfulness. Frank Lloyd Wright’s prairie style design was the inspiration for this unique area, tying in nature through natural wood, brick, and stone finishes. The backdrop of vast natural spaces makes The Point a one-of-a-kind community.

Estate lots are situated near an abundance of green space while being only minutes away from major routes; The Point’s location is ideal for spacious living within City limits.
