Place your custom brand on ‘Foothills Rancher 320’ and turn this unique, raw canvas of land into your family's legacy. This expansive half-section sits just west of the renowned Cowboy Trail and is only a short horse or ATV ride into the town of Diamond Valley, Alberta. Build your dream ranch estate with a wraparound deck that overlooks your herd of Wagyu cattle or cutting horses. If you will be spending a lifetime's savings on a once-in-a-lifetime residence, why not add the land base to make it an authentic working ranch? ‘Foothills Rancher 320’ is where dreams become priceless and lifelong memories are made.
Located in the foothills southwest of Calgary, this is where real Western Canadian Heritage has its roots; western roots that can be imitated by never duplicated. Take a stroll through either side of Diamond Valley, and you can feel the difference. Combined, the 2 Parcels consist of 320 acres laid out over a full eight furlongs, just 26 miles south of the bucking chutes at Stampede Park. Upon exiting the Deerfoot or Stoney Trail on the drive home, soak up the views of the Rocky Mountains while you likely find your speed increasing; much like that equine athlete turning for home.
Just as ranchers like to seek out and invest in good seed stock to build a solid foundation for their ranch, ‘Foothills Rancher 320’ starts with a majority of Class 3 soil according to the Canada Land Inventory map, which is sure to pull hard on the tugs 24/7 for its new owner. Hillier Land, located to the south of ‘Foothills Rancher 320’, is, for the most part, classified as 4 and 5 according to the Canada Land Inventory. This half-section comes with its own valley that is rich in fertile soil. ‘Foothills Rancher 320’ has been rented out with a mix of pasture and hay for the past several years, and its new owner may consider converting more Land to arable acres.
‘Foothills Rancher 320’ is being sold in two Parcels. Parcel 1 is the western quarter and consists of 160 acres and offers a mix of hay and pasture. Access can be gained via 192 Street W, which runs along the western boundary.
Parcel 2 is comprised of 160 acres and is located to the east of Parcel 1. This Parcel is in hay and comes with the added bonus of Surface Lease Revenue. Access can be gained via 176 Street W, which runs the length of the eastern boundary.
The option is yours to either buy one or both Parcels. Both Parcels will stay live with bidding until the very end of the sale, ensuring that a buyer wanting the entire half-section can get it. With Starting Bids for both Parcels set at under $10,000/acre, consider building your dream ranch estate with the nearest neighbour's backyard over four thousand feet away, versus acreages selling for over $100,000 per acre with a neighbours' backyard just two hundred feet away. Situated just a short distance from everything, yet offering the solitude and privacy that only the Rocky Mountain foothills can offer, ‘Foothills Rancher 320’ is the idyllic place to raise a family.
