41 Acres and Off-Grid Cabin in Central Alberta
near Camrose, Alberta
I have 41 acres of primarily pasture land with an “eco-built” off-grid cabin on it.
It is located 10km south of Camrose above the Battle River Valley at the west end of Dried Meat Lake which is designated Federal Crown Reserve Waterfowl Nesting Area.
The cabin is combination strawbale and cordwood (stamped architect plans and built to code) with lots of windows for looking out over the amazing landscape and sky.
It has both solar and wind capacity and a back up generator. Inside is mostly open concept (except for the bathroom! and mechanical room) with bedroom, kitchen, living room and loft open. The 640sq.ft. space would feel small, but the shed roof peaks at 12 feet with very large windows toward the valley. A generous deck wraps around 2 sides.
A “bunkhouse” finished shed and another storage shed form the support for a breeze-way parking area. The yard is medium-sized with raised beds garden area and large perennial flower garden. I have great neighbors 1km away, one of whom pastures his cattle on the land 4 months a years and pays $2,000 a year rent.
Being a 10 minute drive to Camrose is a real bonus. It has become the 25th (small; 17,000) city nationwide to move to with excellent schools, Augustana branch of the U of A, hospital and extensive medical services, good shopping and cultural activities (look it up on the internet.) I've lived here for 30 years and enjoyed it all. Edmonton is 100km away and the airport is 75km.
Asking price is $450,000 which I can break down if needed. Water, septic removal and propane costs are the monthly costs of $450 April-October, late fall and winter are towards $900 (propane for infloor heating.) Property tax is $1,340. An additional 40 acres is possibly available.

It has been a true joy and privilege to build, garden and live here but it's time to retire! Bonnie
