Property Description

Welcome to Rocky Ridge Farm, a premier acreage in Warren County just 2 miles south of St. Marys and less than 25 minutes from West Des Moines. This 65.96-acre estate features a custom ranch home built in 2017 by Gehringer Construction, based on the Cartwright plan from Donald Gardner Architects. With 2,154 SF of living space, the home includes 3 bedrooms, 4 baths, hardwood floors, quartz countertops, stainless appliances, a gas range, and double wall ovens. The open floor plan with cathedral ceiling connects the kitchen, dining, and living areas, while the primary suite offers a walk-in tile shower, double vanity, and private porch access overlooking a 2 acre pond. Outdoors, enjoy two private stocked ponds—a 5-acre lake and a 2-acre pond with dock and gazebo. Multiple improvements include a 48x50 finished barndominium/cabin-style metal building with kitchen, bedroom, bath, and four-seasons porch—ideal for Airbnb/VRBO rental or guest quarters—plus three additional steel buildings for storage or workshop use. The farm offers 18 acres of hay ground, 11 acres ideal for food plots or crops, and a 5-acre tract with productive Sharpsburg soils (CSR2 80) ready for development. Wildlife habitat includes cedar thickets and young timber, supporting trophy whitetail, turkey, and upland birds. With modern construction, income potential, stocked ponds, and excellent hunting, Rocky Ridge Farm is a rare opportunity for both lifestyle and investment.
