‘Red Deer Real’ is made up of 3 contiguous quarters of farmland situated in the easterly portion of Red Deer County in Central Alberta, just 34 miles SE of the City of Red Deer’s Gasoline Alley. Given the proximity to the QE2 transportation corridor between Edmonton and Calgary, ‘Red Deer Real’ offers easy access to significant grain and livestock markets. It gets even better: paved Hwy 590 runs east/west along the northern boundary of Parcel 1. Innisfail can be found 36 miles to the west on the same highway, and Big Valley is located 13 miles to the east.


With stunning views in every direction, this mixed farmer's dream offers both cropping and pasture potential, and more acres could be brought under cultivation. Check the soil classification maps, and you will see that Parcel 1 sits right up at the front of the class in the area. ‘Red Deer Real’ is the real deal regarding mixed farming options in Central Alberta.


Parcel 2 sits between Parcels 1 and 3 and offers 140 acres, including a mixture of cultivated acres and pasture. This is an estate sale, and the family is subdividing off the former farmstead of approximately 20 acres from Parcel 2 and keeping it in the family.


Parcel 3 offers a mix of cultivated acres on the northern portion with the balance in pastureland; again, more acres could be brought under cultivation. Run your pairs on Parcel 3 during the summer and turn them out on the grain stubble on Parcels 1 and 2 in the fall without hauling cattle.


With Starting Bids set at a fraction of recent sales in the area, and an excellent location just 6 miles NE of the village of Elnora, Alberta, ‘Red Deer Real’ is priced to sell. The high bidder will be entitled to take possession of the lands upon the Huxley Colony harvesting the 2024 crop, thus allowing the buyer a chance to ready the lands for spring seeding in 2025.
