394 acres situated perfectly for the Ranch Home Headquarters to take advantage of one of Canada's most picturesque areas.
Built to look like an old Land Baron's homestead from the 1800's, no expense has been spared. Evidence of the meticulous construction is everywhere, including in the straight-as-an-arrow steel pipe fencing. This parcel has to be seen to be fully appreciated.
Great grazing land with exceptional native grasses. Lots of water including swimming pond and winding creek (trout stream).
Exceptional 4 strand barbed wire fencing with easy-close gates. If purchased as separate parcels, some fencing would need to be addressed for boundaries. See the map below for an approximate location of current fences.
Be sure to check out the map also for water sources as this ranch has an abundance of great quality water.
