It is a place where the rhythms of ranching life unfold against one of the most naturally beautiful backdrops in the state.A Working Ranch with Substantial InfrastructureThe property is thoughtfully improved and built for serious agricultural and equestrian use. Five residences -- three in active use and two currently undergoing fire damage restoration. Flexible opportunities for an owner, ranch staff, or multi-generational living. A dedicated horse barn anchors the equestrian development, supporting a property that offers truly vast terrain to ride and explore. Three cattle barns serve the working ranch operation, Irrigation well (requiring repair), and eleven miles of newly installed cattle fencing that define and secure the land's productive grazing areas. Multiple stock ponds, currently in the permitting process, will further enhance water access and carrying capacity across the ranch.With approximately eleven miles of new perimeter and cross fencing already in place, the cattle operation is well-positioned for efficient grazing rotation and herd management across the property's varied terrain.Sanctuary, Wildlife & Natural BeautyBeyond its agricultural merits, this ranch is a genuine sanctuary. A quiet and peaceful atmosphere pervades the land, with abundant wildlife -- including native birds, deer, and the diverse species that thrive in the oak woodland and riparian habitats of the Santa Clara River watershed.
