Discover the potential and self-sufficiency of this 88-acre farm in Mendenhall, Yukon — ideal for agricultural entrepreneurs, homesteaders, or anyone seeking a peaceful, private lifestyle with income-generating options already in place. Bordered by Crown land on three sides, this property offers both privacy and accessibility. Located just 45 minutes from Whitehorse with year-round highway access and on a school bus route, it’s a rare combination of seclusion and convenience. The cozy 2-bedroom, 1-bath home (~960 sq. ft.) is powered by a solar system with battery storage, a 35kW diesel generator, and features propane and electric appliances, a propane fireplace, and a wood stove for off-grid resilience. A 1,200-gallon underground cistern supplies water to the house, with easy refill access just 1 km away. The septic system is approved for a 3-bedroom home, allowing for future expansion. The centerpiece of this property is an income-generating fully licensed meat processing facility, currently operating as a slaughterhouse and processing shop. Housed in a heated 20’ x 40’ concrete-floored building with floor drains and bathroom, the shop is licensed by the Yukon government for both wholesale and retail sales. Equipment is available for purchase separately, enabling an immediate start or rental income from local farmers who require seasonal use. The space is also flexible enough to be converted into a mechanical shop or additional living area. The property is fully equipped for livestock production, supporting up to 100 pigs and 20 head of cattle annually, with 30+ acres of fenced pasture, multiple livestock pens, a pond, and a year-round creek running through the treed back acreage. Additional structures include: - A dry cabin (12’ x 12’); - A barn, lean-to, chicken coop, and multiple sheds; - Dog kennel and livestock pen areas; and - Firepit, mature trees, and a south-facing yard. Whether you're looking to continue its use as a working farm, operate a meat processing business, or simply enjoy a self-sufficient lifestyle in a spectacular rural setting, this property offers all the essentials, with room to grow.
