Heartland in Cochrane by APEX Developments

Offering the charm of small-town living, outstanding value and ease of access to the mountains and city it’s no wonder people have fallen in love with Heartland in Cochrane.

Crafted by APEX Developments, Heartland is ideally located at the edge of the Foothills on the west side of Cochrane, providing residents a heartwarming and laid-back country lifestyle, with a wide range of amenities close at hand.

“Homeowners love the small-town, family-friendly feel of Heartland,” says APEX Sales and Marketing Co-ordinator Morgan Gowland. “Located just off Highway 1A and Highway 22, Heartland puts residents in an ideal spot to head into downtown Cochrane, Calgary or west to Ghost Lake, Kananaskis Country and the mountains.”

The community itself is a short walk to the Bow River, and within a few minutes’ drive to Cochrane’s shops, restaurants, services, and recreation facilities such as the Spray Lake Sawmills Family Sports Centre, plus the Tuscany LRT Station is just a short drive up the highway, which is great for Calgary commuters.

“Heartland offers incredible value,” says Gowland. “Compared to homes in the city and surrounding neighbourhoods, buyers can save thousands of dollars on homes of the same style and size. For example, a 2,000-sq.-ft., double front-attached garage home in Heartland starts from the $340,000s, compared to a similar home in northcentral Calgary, which starts from the $470,000s. With builder and developer promotions being offered right now, there’s never been a better time to buy.”

Heartland welcomes residents and visitors alike with extra wide centre medians that are extensively landscaped with aspen trees and river rock. With three beautiful parks, a pathway system, naturalized spaces and a pond, the community offers residents a chance to get outside and connect with nature.

“These common spaces encourage people to stay active, get to know their neighbours and foster the community’s family-friendly spirit,” Gowland notes, adding that, “residents will also be pleased that a neighbourhood convenience store, gas station and local commercial area will be opening later this year, and a pedestrian pathway that will connect residents to the river and nearby communities.”

The community is comprised of 250 acres, 45 of which is dedicated to greenspace, with approximately 1,450 residential units on build out, and five multi-family sites. Heartland’s architectural styling of Craftsman, Arts & Crafts, Prairie and Homestead is a reflection of Cochrane’s tranquil natural setting and small-town vibe.

There are several housing choices available that appeal to everyone from first-time buyers and young families to empty nesters and right-sizers. Heartland offers tremendous value and affordability with single-family homes starting from the $340,000s, duplexes from the $290,000s, street towns (no condo fees) starting from the $290,000s and townhomes from the $250,000s.
