Bentley Classic - 303 Acres For Sale - Bentley, AB Selling Online Thursday, July 24, 2025 at 9:00am MDT The Price listed is the Starting Bid for Parcel 1. See Website for Details and Starting Bids. https://www.clhbid.com/auctions/bentley-classic/ 'Bentley Classic' is situated in a pocket of exclusive agricultural excellence in Western Canada and is the epitome of the word classic. The Bentley name is synonymous with quality and style, and with a combined total of 303 acres being sold as 2 Parcels, ‘Bentley Classic’ lives up to the label. With premium arable acres and a stunning backdrop of the Sunset Hills and the Blindman River Valley, these Parcels are as beautiful as they are productive. Both Parcels boast quick access to markets, proximity to the QE2 (Alberta’s major north-south corridor), and the incredible recreational activities associated with Sylvan Lake to the south and Gull Lake to the north. Situated in the centerfold of Alberta between Bentley and Sylvan Lake, Oilers or Flames - the new owner can choose their home team. Parcel 1 is the original Tatlock homestead; the current owner’s great-grandfather travelled to the Blindman Valley in 1907 to visit his daughter and was struck by the breathtaking beauty of the area. He then decided to purchase 157 acres and preserve the land for generations to come. The land has remained a cherished family treasure for over 100 years and still serves as a testament to his vision and love for the valley’s natural splendor. Located in what is now known as Lacombe County, this Parcel is as good today, if not better, than it was in 1907, and is abundant with opportunity. Situated at the well-known intersection of Rainy Creek Road and Highway 20, access will never be an issue for this Parcel. With approximately 85 arable acres that are rich with a history of mixed farming, this is the sort of land that has not been overworked and the sort of land ranchers and farmers covet. There is a picturesque valley with a creek that flows across the quarter beginning in the northwest corner that provides a thoroughfare for big game animals. Not only is the view incredible, but Parcel 1 also offers Surface Lease Revenue that exceeds $11,000 per year and has pavement on both the east and south sides of the quarter. The mature yard site would function well as a grain-handling facility or a well-drained, livestock background location; access from Rainy Creek Road eliminates potential issues with road bans or mud. Currently, there is an 1,100 square foot, mid-century home with significant renovations completed since 2022. The home features new appliances, new windows, a high-efficiency furnace and a new exterior and interior; all completed with the intention of turning this 3-bedroom house into a welcoming home. There is a 40’ x 60’ metal clad shop that has wiring provisions for welding, a 16’ x 20’ shed with upgraded electrical services, and a water-well in the yard. This turn-key yard sites also includes an underground water line that runs from the yard site to the north side of the creek allowing for easy livestock watering, a decent set of corrals that drain quickly with the north-sloping topography, and a 1650-bushel grain bin. Parcel 2 is located a mere half mile from the water’s edge of Sylvan Lake in the Jarvis Bay area. Parcel 2 was the backbone of the ranch and fulfilled the Tatlock family’s forage needs and is currently in transition as the current tenant turned these 140 arable acres into crop production within the last 24 months. The pavement of Highway 20 runs the length of the eastern boundary, and the Parcel offers $9,500 in annual Surface Lease Revenue that will be transferred to the new owner. Sylvan Lake is widely recognized as a vibrant, Central Alberta community that is popular for year-round recreational opportunities. The iconic Lake Shore Drive is lined with lakeside patios, amazing food, shops, and sweet treats, and is all a short drive away. To truly gain perspective of the natural surrounding beauty, prospective buyers may want to stand on the west side of this quarter. With a view of Alberta’s distinctive Rocky Mountains and the Eckville area to the west, Sylvan Lake to the south, Bentley to the north-east, and the glow of Red Deer and the QE2 in the distance to the east, 'Bentley Classic’ is truthfully located in the centerfold of Alberta. For those investors looking to diversify their portfolio with hard assets, take note of the 146 acres that make up Parcel and peek across the fence to the south to view the development opportunity. Purchase this land and enjoy the recreational opportunities while the value increases and you watch it outpace other land acquisitions. ‘Bentley Classic’ is being offered for sale via online escalating tender by CLHbid.com.
