Rocky Mountain ranch property at its best
Is the ranch life for you? Check out these properties that showcase the best of Rocky Mountain living.
One of the most unique property developments in the Kootenays is the Elk Park Ranch, located just north of Radium Hot Springs. The development features 16 ranches, spread over 3,500 acres and embodies the very essence of the ruggedness of the Canadian Rockies and its grassy slopes. The other aspect is Elk Park Ranch Community, which is a dynamic mix of single- and multi-family homes. A limited selection of estate single-family lots and 1-4 acre homesteads are now available.
As the real estate brochure states, “All you have to do is breathe in the sweet air, listen to the nature that surrounds you, and relax in your mountain acreage home. Access to the ranches is a couple of kms north of Radium Hot Springs via a secure electronic central gate creating a very private nature preserve.”
Each acreage at Elk Park Ranch comes with a confirmed water source (either a drilled well or water license from creek or lake), a private branded ranch gate to be installed at the entrance to each parcel, and power to the lot line. The majority of the lands are medium-density treed with lots of trails and roadways, making them very accessible for recreation. With your own lot, you can then choose to carve out a pasture area to suit your individual needs and desires.
Elk Park Ranch Community and ranches are a mountain development like no other, one which borders Kootenay National Park where future development is limited. Whether looking for a property in the Elk Park Community, or on one of the ranch properties, you will appreciate your ability to get back to nature, find your calm, and just reconnect in a relatively undisturbed mountain environment.
At Elk Park Ranch Community, we’ve taken the time and set strict architectural guidelines to ensure that the natural setting you want is preserved. This helps to keep the initial calm feeling you fell in love with consistent.
