Welcome to Braga Ranch, a rare offering in the coastal hills of Sonoma County, located in the charming community of Valley Ford within the Estero Americano watershed. On the market for the first time in nearly 100 years, this historic ranch has been lovingly stewarded by this family for three generations. Long before its years as a working dairy and pasture operation, the land was home to an early flour mill. The original mill operated with twelve horses turning two round stones and later expanded to include two steam engines to meet the demand for the ranch's high-quality flour, an important piece of local agricultural history. Today, Braga Ranch continues its agricultural legacy and is currently used for livestock and residential living. The sale includes three parcels, a farmhouse, a barn, and several rustic outbuildings that support ranch operations. Located just down the road from downtown Valley Ford, the property offers easy access to the town's beloved local spots and is within walking distance to Dinucci's Italian Restaurant, Valley Ford Market, and Estero Cafe. Valley Ford is known for its relaxed rural charm, local shops, dairies, artisan cheeses, oysters, and its connection to the historic Christo Running Fence installation. The property also offers convenient access to the Sonoma Coast and surrounding destinations and is just minutes from Bodega Bay and Dillon Beach, less than an hour to regional airports, and approximately 1.5+/- hours from San Francisco. This ranch presents a unique opportunity to own a historic boutique ranch in one of Sonoma County's most scenic coastal communities.
