Link to Listing Page: www.californiaoutdoorproperti...
A legacy in the making. Imagine 9,818 acres of coastal range land, with the highest peak on the Santa Lucia Mountain Range, overlooking the Salinas Valley, Carmel Valley, and on a clear day, Santa Cruz, Carmel by the Sea, and the ocean! The Palo Escrito Peak is 4,600 ft in elevation. At this point, you are ''on top of the world'' with views in every direction. It's simply breathtaking. As you enter the ranch, it feels as if you've stepped back in time, beautiful ancient oaks canopy the drive giving you a sense of peace and tranquility. The ranch headquarters are the first buildings you come to, including a large hay barn with a storage room and full bath. Comfortable 1 bedroom ranch house, covered horse paddocks, and several fenced pasture areas. Cattle corrals with piped fencing include chute, squeeze, and scales. Nicely set up for the cattle operation. Continue up a paved drive to the stunning main ranch house, situated on a hillside with amazing views. The custom 3000 sf home features 4 bedrooms and 2 baths. Open plan with large living room as well as a family room. Large 2-car garage and shop area, all set up with a backup generator system. An additional homesite with all utilities is located on the lower portion of the ranch with a separate entry. Also located at the southern tip of the ranch lays a 7 1/2 acre vineyard with a gravity flow drip system and perimeter fencing. Finch Creek runs alongside the private entry to the vineyard. Hunting and recreational opportunities are abundant. Blacktail deer, wild boar, turkeys, dove, quail, and wild pigeon. Miles of roads and trails for ATVs or horseback riding. The cattle operation has been the main focus for the owners, running up to 200 pair year-round, or 400 pair from April 1st to September 1st, depending on the year. An intricate stock water system has been set up from multiple wells, together with underground piping, supplying water to 68 livestock water troughs. Beneficial to wildlife as well. There are numerous seasonal ponds and creeks throughout the property. The ranch enjoys income from tower rentals, as well as a hunting lease. The entire 9,818 acres are in the Williamson Act, which provides a tax benefit to the owner.
Approximately 25 minutes to Carmel Valley Village and 45 minutes to Carmel by the Sea and the Ocean. Pebble Beach and all the golf extravaganzas, including the US Open, with some of the greatest golf courses in the state, if not the entire US. Upscale and unique shopping, great restaurants, resorts, fisherman's wharf, white sandy beaches, and turquoise ocean waters. All this and more for your enjoyment, yet the ranch is far enough away to get out of the crowds, and the size gives you the feeling and reality that you are removed from it all with amazing privacy, unsurpassed views, and Nature at its best.
