About De Winton
De Winton sits in Foothills County just south of Calgary's city limits, offering a rural lifestyle that's remarkably close to the city. Known for its larger agricultural and country residential parcels, De Winton attracts buyers who want real land — room for horses, outbuildings, gardens, and the kind of space that suburban living simply can't deliver. Downtown Calgary is about 20 minutes north.
