Water Valley General Store stands as one of Alberta’s most cherished rural landmarks and a lasting symbol of community connection. For more than seven decades, this iconic property has played a central role in daily life in Water Valley, serving not only as a place to purchase everyday essentials but also as a welcoming gathering space where neighbours meet, stories are shared, and traditions are passed from one generation to the next. Few properties offer this level of historical significance combined with genuine community importance. Located in the heart of Water Valley, the General Store enjoys excellent exposure and a central position within the village, making it a natural hub for both locals and visitors. The historic building offers outstanding potential for a variety of uses, including retail, café, food service, or mixed-use concepts, while maintaining the character and charm that residents deeply value. Ownership of this property represents more than a commercial investment—it is an opportunity to steward a beloved landmark and contribute meaningfully to the ongoing vitality of the community. The property is fully equipped for turn-key operation and has seen numerous functional upgrades to support modern business needs. Features include inspected underground gas tanks, upgraded and newer gas pumps, a brand-new air conditioning unit, newer fixtures throughout, and a reverse osmosis water filtration system, among other improvements. These updates provide peace of mind and allow an incoming owner or operator to focus on business operations rather than infrastructure. For buyers, this offering presents a rare combination of location, history, and long-term potential in a tightly knit and supportive community. For entrepreneurs, it offers the chance to operate a business that is already woven into the fabric of local life. In addition to a full purchase, the Seller is also open to leasing options. The main building—or alternatively the second main building—may be leased upon request, providing flexibility for those who wish to establish or expand operations without an immediate purchase. Whether acquired as an investment property, owner-operated business, or community-focused venture, the Water Valley General Store is a once-in-a-generation opportunity to own or operate a historic property with enduring relevance, strong visibility, and meaningful impact.
