Welcome to 161 acres of paradise with trees, wide open meadows, a year round creek, riding/walking trails tucked away from any neighbors with mountain views , secluded and private yet conveniently located 20 minutes NW from Cochrane. It feels like your living in a national park with the trees and views, but it could be your own private land. You are sure to be impressed with this reverse walk-out Bungalow built into the hillside with over 4600 sq ft of living space, attached oversized double garage plus shop.
