Perfectly positioned near Rockyford and only 15 minutes to Strathmore, this land is fenced and cross-fenced, currently supporting hay and pasture operations, and includes irrigation rights with the Western Irrigation District.

Perched overlooking the landscape, the home blends rural ranch warmth with modern upgrades. Originally built in 2006 and moved to the property in 2019, it was set on a brand-new 10’ ICF walkout foundation with in-floor heating, and all mechanical systems—including well, septic, and utilities—were new at that time. Offering over 4,100 sq ft of living space with about 3,000 sq ft developed, this is a spacious, bright, and inviting home designed for both everyday life and gathering. 4 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. A large covered deck frames the peaceful coulee views, while massive windows fill the interior with natural light and stunning prairie scenery.

A generous walk-in pantry easily accommodates bulk storage and a freezer. The mudroom is tailored for ranch life with barn-wood accents and room for boots, coats, and gear. The primary suite is a true retreat, featuring a walk-in closet, spa-inspired ensuite with dual sinks, freestanding soaker tub, and large shower, plus a private east-facing balcony to greet each sunrise. The walkout lower level is partially finished with two bedrooms, a full bathroom, and has heated floors, offering plenty of space to expand. Water is plentiful with a 4 gpm well supported by a cistern, and the hot water tank is brand-new. Every detail reflects thoughtful planning for a working ranch, future growth, and comfortable living.

Understanding Wheatland County Land Use & Zoning

Buying acreages for sale in Wheatland County means more than just land and views. Whether you’re planning a custom home, hobby farm, or equestrian acreage, it’s essential to know how local zoning bylaws impact your project. The Wheatland County Land Use Bylaw sets the framework, covering:

  • Zoning Districts: Agricultural, Country Residential, or other designations that define how your acreage or small parcel can be used.
  • Permitted & Discretionary Uses: What you can build by right (e.g., a single-family home) versus projects needing county approval such as large workshops or secondary dwellings.
  • Setback Requirements: Minimum distances your home, barn, or shop must maintain from property lines, roads, and environmental reserves.
  • Development Permits: The application process and documents needed to get building permits approved without costly delays.

Because zoning rules can evolve, always check the most recent bylaw before finalizing your purchase. For details, view the Wheatland County property regulations guide or connect with Diane Richardson for expert guidance on Wheatland County real estate.
