The Acres

Build your Legacy Residence at the Acres in Springbank with Alloy Homes.

Just twenty minutes west of downtown Calgary, where the expansive prairie begins its dramatic ascent into the Rocky Mountains, a rare community is taking shape. Set atop the banks of the pristine Elbow River valley, The Acres offers a quintessential Southern Alberta landscape of rolling foothills, mature vegetation, distant peaks and expansive skies.

As a Preferred Builder at The Acres, Alloy Homes is positioned to translate the breathtaking emotion of this landscape into an architecturally forward, handcrafted luxury home. Since 1997, our award-winning boutique firm has designed and built modern sanctuaries for those who refuse to compromise on architecture, craftsmanship, or lifestyle.

At the Acres, your home is more than a residence. It's the next chapter of your story, intimately connected to the landscape of this special place.

Untamed Beauty Meets Considered Architecture

Large, private acreage parcels this close to Calgary are exceedingly rare. The Acres offers 49 exclusive estate lots, ranging from 1.2 to 2.0 acres, with over 50 percent of the community preserved as lush, common green space.

At Alloy Homes, our in-house architectural and interior design teams draw inspiration from the land.

Our architectural philosophy is deeply rooted in the integration of home and site, of indoors and out. When you build with us at The Acres, every window, roofline, and living space is meticulously engineered to capture sweeping mountain view corridors, celebrate the valley vistas, and seamlessly integrate with the natural topography. Your home is a private oasis within a broader community.

Building at The Acres allows us to push the boundaries of creative design. Whether you envision a sprawling, California-modern single-level estate, an alpine-inspired contemporary retreat, or a minimalist architectural statement made of glass, steel, and natural stone, we'll help bring your vision to life. We utilize thoughtful, sustainable design strategies and robust construction techniques to ensure your home performs flawlessly within the foothills' dynamic climate, keeping you cozy in the winter and cool during the sun-drenched prairie summers.
