Hanna and the surrounding Special Areas offer a prairie lifestyle that lets you slow down and breathe. While connected to everything you’d find in large urban centres, you have time to enjoy our wide-open spaces, beautiful lakes, and manicured parks. Here, you’ll find housing options to suit any lifestyle, including heritage homes, new homes, apartments, acreages, and assisted-living options.
The cost to purchase or build a home in our community is low, compared to other parts of Alberta with the cost of an average-sized lot being as little as $18,749. Be sure to consider the new development – Fielding Place. You can build a brand-new executive or starter home in an established area that already has sidewalks, roads, schools, and playgrounds. They are already in place and are now for sale at 70% off their original asking price! Contact a local Realtor or the Town Office to find out more.
Hanna also has a range of rental options: single homes, duplexes, and apartments. The Town Office maintains a listing of landlords in Hanna who may have units available. There are also several several options for seniors’ or subsidized living
