These 3 quarters of farmland are located in the west-central County of Grande Prairie and are looking for new ownership. Situated in the very first County established in the Province of Alberta, ‘Triple Off Hwy 59’ is old-school, top-shelf farmland. The three-quarters straddle Highway 59 on both sides over a span of twenty miles through an area of third- and fourth-generation farms of largely English, Scandinavian, and Dutch heritage. The European settlers recognised good farmland when they first encountered it over a century ago.
Parcel 1 is comprised of 160 acres and is made up of two titles; two titles are better than one. Build your dream home on the acreage with its mortgage and leave the balance of the quarter section free and clear to use for security for your farm operation; the titles are 150 and 10 acres, respectively.
Parcel 1 is one of the top quarters in the western portion of the County and is wide-open from corner to corner with almost every acre arable. There is no need to pay for acres you cannot use. Parcel 1 is situated on the pole in the front row, its motor gunning, having already been seeded with first-year fescue - it just needs its new owner to waive the green flag. As a bonus, the quarter comes with Surface Lease Revenue totalling $4,100/year. This same quarter in central Alberta would sell for double the Starting Bid on any race day.
Parcel 2 is situated just half a mile north of Highway 59 and offers both farm and recreational potential. The game that frequents the virgin area on the western portion of the Parcel is included. With a total of 149 acres, this quarter is priced to start hard and leave a little rubber at the line. The Starting bid is set at a fraction of what most quarters in the County sell for today.
Parcel 3 is the eastern-most quarter and is comprised of a total of 144 acres. This quarter comes with significant Surface Lease Revenue totalling $5,500/year. Sitting one mile north of Highway 59, Parcel 3 is well-drained and slopes downward to the south.
The Montney and Duvernay formations are key unconventional oil and gas plays within the Western Canadian Sedimentary Basin, particularly in Alberta and British Columbia, and ‘Triple Off Hwy 59’ is located directly in the middle. Rich in natural gas, oil, and natural gas liquids, these areas are crucial to Canada's unconventional oil and gas production. Another anticipated boon to the region will be the Wonder Valley AI Data Centre. Phase 1 focuses on establishing a foundational infrastructure to support what will become the world's largest AI data center industrial park.
