3261 Wardner Fort Steele Road Lot# Lot B & C

Beautiful acreage with productive hay land located in a prime location at the south end of the Hughes Range in the Canadian Rockies, also known as ""the Steeples."" This scenic property spans 2 titles each with legal access, totaling 191.25 acres, & includes access to over 6,200 acres of adjacent range land with 164 AUMs. Of the total acreage, approximately 155 acres are irrigated hay land with a steady water supply from Norbury Creek & a high-yield irrigation well (500 GPM). The ranch is primarily fenced with electric fencing to keep the wildlife / elk out & is well-suited for cattle. Together with the adjacent range land, it has supported over 200 cow-calf pairs for decades. On its own, the property can sustain 100+ pairs with the available hay & grazing. A six-acre portion of the hay field is leased to Bayer for canola seed production, generating a healthy hands off income source. Norbury Creek runs through the property for about 2,800 feet, creating a lush corridor behind the house and serving as a reliable irrigation source. The creek’s flow increases in summer as snowmelt feeds Norbury Lake. Early in the season, the well provides reliable irrigation water before the creek levels rise. On the land is a modest family home with double car garage, an amazing fenced garden & detached carport and hay shed. The adjacent crown land offers amazing recreational opportunities - hunting, biking, hiking, etc all the way over to the Kootenay River. (id:59278)
