In the world of horse racing, the term Triple Crown represents the pinnacle of achievement and is awarded to a horse that wins three prestigious races in a single season. In baseball, the Triple Crown carries a similar weight of excellence, achieved when a player leads the league in batting average, home runs, and runs batted in. This same spirit of rare accomplishment and enduring value can be seen in this remarkable farmstead; 480 acres of prime farmland selling as three separate Parcels that are being offered to the market for the first time in over a century. Located 7.5 miles east of Redwater, Alberta, ‘Triple Crown’ has a legacy of strength and productivity that mirrors the prestige of its namesake.
‘Triple Crown’ lies just north of the Redwater Provincial Recreation Area, a popular destination for hiking, hunting, snowmobiling, and off-roading, offering both natural beauty and recreational enjoyment. The North Saskatchewan River flows just three miles to the east of Range Road 204, adding to the scenic and ecological appeal of the region. Of the combined total 480 acres, approximately 415 acres are cultivated, supported by excellent soil quality that has long sustained successful agricultural production. Parcel 1 also includes an established, older yard site surrounded by a strong shelter belt, which is ideal for protection, privacy, and the potential to develop a rural retreat.
Parcel 1 is comprised of 160 acres, of which approximately 140 acres are under cultivation in 2025. Range Road 204 runs the length of the western boundary, offering excellent access from a good, high-grade county road.
The yard site on Parcel 1 is situated in the northwest portion of the quarter and offers a glimpse into the quintessential Alberta farmstead of the past. The mature shelter belt could only be created after decades of growth, and the variety of buildings and grain bins that hold all the treasures make up the remainder of this historic farm. The backbone of the operation, this is the site where the combines were fixed in the fall and the seed drill was prepared for spring seeding, as well as every other welding and mechanical upgrade project it took to succeed in farming in the days of old. The farmhouse is sturdy, with a good roof, and for those families looking for a peaceful retreat within commuting distance of Fort Saskatchewan, ‘Triple Crown’ is located just over 30 minutes to the north of this vibrant economic and cultural hub. Parcels 2 and 3 assemble perfectly with Parcel 1, providing mile-long fields.
Parcels 2 and 3 are both full quarters, and when combined, offer a total of 320 acres. This wide-open farmland will continue to produce and add to the bottom-line year after year and will provide a mile long field if farmed together. A large assemblage of contiguous acres with this sort of proximity to Alberta’s capital city will provide a solid foundation for any portfolio – whether a farmer or an investor.
Interested buyers may bid with confidence on sale day knowing that CLHbid.com’s Universal Close means bidding on all Parcels will remain live until the very end, and qualified bidders will have the opportunity to purchase the entire assemblage en bloc in the second round of bidding. This eliminates the risk of traveling for one quarter if you want the entire farm.
Set within one of Alberta’s most active industrial regions in the heart of Sturgeon County, ‘Triple Crown’ benefits from proximity to major economic drivers. The primary industry sectors around Redwater include heavy industrial operations related to hydrocarbon processing, oil and gas extraction, and a variety of supporting services. As part of Alberta’s Industrial Heartland - Canada’s largest hydrocarbon processing region - this land represents a unique combination of agricultural strength and industrial opportunity. With its rich history, fertile soil, and strategic location, this 480-acre ‘Triple Crown’ of farmland stands as a rare and valuable investment in both Alberta’s agricultural and economic landscape.
