The Alberta ranch that played the town of “Big Whiskey” in the 1992 Clint Eastwood film “Unforgiven” is on the market.

Listed with an asking price of $25.5 million, Engel & Völkers is brokering the sale.

The 480-acre property, located an hour outside of Calgary, features a main lodge, several guest cabins, and the original film set featured in the film.

“The movie was filmed in the region directly next to the ranch. Clint Eastwood stayed on the ranch during filming, and his co-stars Morgan Freeman, Gene Hackman and Richard Harris also spent a lot of time here,” says Chris Burns, listing advisor, Engel & Völkers Vancouver. “The current owners purchased the fictional Western town of ‘Big Whiskey’ featured in the film and reconstructed it on the ranch.”

The main drive leads from the lodge through a gateway to the heart of the ranch, the Western-style town of “Big Whiskey.” This ensemble of buildings is the actual film set for the Western hit film “Unforgiven,” rebuilt on the ranch according to the original set plans and fully intact and ready for use, according to Engel & Völkers.

The Wild West town consists of a sheriff’s office with two jail cells and an antique armoury cabinet, a saloon with a full-service bar and gambling hall, a blacksmith shop, livery and stables with three indoor stalls, a bank and a carpentry shop. There is also a fully stocked mercantile and a small white church with antique pews and a bell tower.

According to Burns, the ranch’s owners rebuilt the town out of a “sheer sense of fun,” confirming each building is fully functional and habitable. He adds, “There is nothing quite like it on a private ranch.”
