I have sold a property at 26523 402 Township ROAD in Rural Lacombe County.
69... acres of EXCELLENCE! Some of the highest rated farmland in Alberta just 1.5 miles straight south of the vibrant young city of Lacombe, Alberta.
The house is big and beautiful, especially after the 2012 renovation, at just shy of 2200 square feet (remember guys, they don't let us count the basement or garage in that total). Five bedrooms with a great opportunity to convert another in the basement to a sixth if needed, three and a half bath, and a double attached garage. The owner's suite has it's own private balcony and a fantastic view to the southwest so you can watch the sun set as you lay your head down. The great room is just that, Great! With high ceilings, an open-to-below balcony and a gorgeous stone fireplace with custom mantle. It's also home to the dining room set and offers views out of three sides of the room. The kitchen owns a ton of counter space and wonderful stainless appliances for the person that loves to cook, bake and host, as well as its own kitchen table and chairs in addition to the dining room set. The basement includes the last bedroom, a theatre room (but could make that sixth bedroom if needed), a family room and three cellars (one for warm storage and two for cold)!
Two outbuildings make this a nice opportunity for somebody with entrepreneurial designs as they have already served as a home base for one commercial operation. The 30'X40' is a conventionally framed & insulated shop with a concrete floor and overhead radiant heaters. Built-in cabinets and a mezzanine with extra shelving make for great added storage. The 40X60' building is pole construction and has a gravel base as well as heavy duty built-in shelving down both sides. Both buildings are metal sided and roofed!
The Owner ran a trucking company out of here, and while Lacombe County's soil is great for growing crops, it's not so much for driving loaded semi trucks on. So, they peeled all the top soil out of the yard (two feet worth!) and replaced it with mesh and two feet of pit run, ensuring usability for loaded trucks or heavy equipment year round!
Lastly, we're a mile and a half out of town, here. I'm no rocket scientist, but it doesn't take one to know that very likely the city will need this land for development eventually. When that will be? We don't know, but imagine what it will be worth then...
