When I think of Amber Marshall, the first thing that comes to mind is her beloved role as Amy Fleming on the hit TV show Heartland. But here is something really interesting that you don’t even know — the life she lives on-screen is almost the same life she lives off the screen too. Yes, you heard that right!! Amber Marshall really does live on a farm. And it is just as charming and real as someone would imagine.
Amber Marshall House
Amber was born in London, Ontario — which is far from any farm. But when she turned 18 years old, she got a call for an audition. And the show was Heartland — as we already know it’s a story about a horse girl living on a ranch in Alberta. She got the role, and her life changed forever.
By 2009, she had moved to Alberta full-time. Then she bought a small farm outside of Calgary and fell completely in love with the western lifestyle and the farm lifestyle. A year later, she met her husband, Shawn Turner, a photographer. They got married right there on their farm in 2013, with friends, family, and their animals all around them.
“Feeling completely at home in the west, I fully relocated myself in 2009 and purchased a small farm outside of Calgary.”

The New Farm — A Log Cabin and Barn
In the year of 2020, Amber & Shawn decided to move to even a bigger and more peaceful property. They now live on a beautifully treed piece of land — further out from the city, with more space for their growing family of lovely animals 😍. This place has a very cozy log cabin as their home and a proper barn for the horses and other animals.
This log cabin feels very warm & homey. The natural sunlight comes through the windows, there is worn hardwood flooring, and animals wander in and out of the space freely. It is the kind of home that feels lived-in and loved too, not a fancy showpiece, but a real working farm.😍😍
Who Lives There? A Whole Lot of Animals
I do remember, Amber once joked that she is like “Dr. Doolittle.” and honestly, it is not hard to see why. Her farm is home to many different kinds of animals. She has said that her animals keep her humble and grounded and that they do not care who she is on TV (How sweet).
A Typical Morning on the Farm
As we all know that Amber has been very open about what her real mornings look like. She wakes up before 6 AM, for what? Nahh.. not to go to a fancy studio, but to milk her Jersey cow. She has talked about how one morning the cow kicked the milk bucket and sent fresh milk all over her face and hair 😂. She laughed it off. That is just farm life.
Before she ever walks into the house, she feeds her horses and walks the dogs. She has said this is how she “leaves the stress outside.” It is her way of staying grounded no matter how busy her filming schedule gets.
Farm Life Is Not Glamorous: But She Loves It
Normally actresses live a fancy life but Amber is quite the opposite. As we all know she said this before that her life involves a lot of hard work, dirt and animal poop! And she would not have it any other way. She even said that she sometimes shows up to meetings still smelling of the barn. She showers before bed because by then she has usually been “covered in some kind of mess already.”
More Than Just a Home
Amber’s farm is not just a place to sleep — it is the center of her whole life. She runs her online clothing store, Marshall’s Country Store, from the farm during the off-season. She sells western wear, accessories, and her own branded clothing. She also volunteers at local vet clinics and animal shelters when she has time.
Her farm has also been the backdrop for her personal magazine, Amber Marshall Life & Style, and her jewelry line. Everything Amber does connects back to this simple, animal-filled life in Alberta.
Why Fans Love Her Home Story
What makes Amber Marshall’s home so special is that it is completely real. She did not buy a mansion in Hollywood. She bought a farm. She chose the harder, messier, more beautiful life, and she shares it openly with her fans through Instagram, YouTube, and her blog. Fans feel like they know her not just as an actress, but as a real person who wakes up early to milk a cow.
“I love where I’m living, I love the people that I work with… I can’t imagine living anywhere else.”
