Exempt from the foreign buyer ban, this exquisite mountain estate is quietly nestled in the serene hamlet of Harvie Heights, just minutes from the heart of Canmore. Set on a beautifully landscaped 11,250+ sq.ft. lot and surrounded by mature trees and mountain vistas, this is a rare opportunity to own a private alpine escape. Blending rustic charm with refined comfort, the home features vaulted ceilings, rich hardwood floors, and a spiral staircase that adds architectural elegance to the warm, wood-accented interior. The thoughtful layout includes 4 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, plus a spacious lower-level family room, and additional storage — ideal for future customization. Four sun-drenched sundecks invite you to relax and take in the sweeping views, while a tandem double garage provides ample space for vehicles and gear. One of the few properties still eligible for foreign ownership, this mountain sanctuary is a truly rare offering in today’s market.

Floor Plan


Foreign buyers take note: If you're looking to invest in real estate near Banff or Canmore but are restricted by Canada's foreign buyer ban, Harvie Heights offers a rare and valuable opportunity. Located just minutes from both Canmore and the gates of Banff National Park, Harvie Heights is not subject to the federal foreign buyer ban. This makes it one of the few places in the region where international buyers can legally purchase property. Whether you're seeking a vacation home, investment property, or a foothold in the Canadian Rockies, Harvie Heights is a strategic choice with all the mountain charm and none of the restrictions.
