The residential component of this legacy ranch is a 1,614 sq. ft. structure built in 1938, which is significantly undersized and outdated for a property of this magnitude and price point. The listing provides 58 images but entirely omits interior photos of the home, focusing instead on the high-value vineyards and land; this typically indicates that the dwelling requires substantial repairs, modernization, or is being sold for its footprint value rather than its current condition.

The ranch includes 35 acres of premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay vines that supply world-renowned wineries like Williams Selyem, providing immediate prestige and high-value agricultural income.
With RRD-100 zoning allowing for a potential three-parcel subdivision and 77 additional acres identified for vineyard expansion, the property offers massive equity growth and investment potential.

The existing 1,614 sq. ft. home built in 1938 is undersized for a 350-acre estate, likely requiring a significant capital investment to build a primary residence that matches the land's value.
Managing a legacy ranch of this scale, including riparian corridors and extensive acreage, involves substantial ongoing costs and specialized management to maintain the land and infrastructure.
Located on Westside Rd., one of Sonoma County's premier wine country roads, this 350+ ac. legacy ranch is less than 15 min. from downtown Healdsburg. In the same family since 1958, Bucher Farms is developed with 35 ac. of premium Pinot Noir and Chardonnay wine grapes which have earned consistently high scores in the wine press for some of Sonoma County's most prestigious wineries including Williams Selyem and Merry Edwards. Located in the Middle Reach of the Russian River Valley AVA, this spectacular property has panoramic views from higher elevations; gentle sloping meadows intermixed amongst native oaks, madrone, bay and fir trees; and rock outcroppings and riparian corridors traversing the landscape, providing numerous recreational opportunities. Water resources include (2) wells; recycled water from the City of Healdsburg developed and in use on the property; as well as 120,000 gallons of water storage capacity. Preliminary studies indicate the potential of up to 77.00 acres of additional land suitable for high-quality vineyard development, and the RRD-100 zoning designation from the County of Sonoma allows for the potential to subdivide the ranch into three parcels. In addition, the property is in an Ag Preserve under the Williamson Act allowing for reduced property taxes.
