Historic 9 Acre Property

Nestled in one of the Santa Ynez Valley’s most coveted locations, 3173 Roblar Avenue offers a rare blend of history, opportunity and possibility across more than 9 usable acres. Originally part of the renowned Joughin Ranch and held by the same family since 1950, this remarkable property invites a new vision, whether as a private estate, family compound or legacy retreat.
The expansive, predominantly level acreage provides an exceptional canvas for a future main residence while preserving two charming 1930s-era cottages. Each approximately 816 square feet, one residence offers two bedrooms and one bath, while the second features one bedroom and one bath. With separate septic systems already in place, the cottages offer immediate flexibility for guests, extended family, caretakers or comfortable use while pursuing future development plans.
Rich in character and functionality, the property includes a vintage barn, equipment shed and a valuable private well that serves both the residences and agricultural acreage. In a region where reliable water resources are an increasingly important consideration, the well enhances the property’s self-sufficiency, versatility and long-term potential. Majestic oak trees frame the landscape, creating a picturesque backdrop and an enduring sense of place.
A productive vineyard currently occupies a portion of the property, complementing the landscape while leaving abundant room for expansion and customization. The true value lies in the versatility of the land, the established infrastructure and the freedom to bring a personal vision to life.
Ideally located near Santa Ynez, Los Olivos and Solvang, this exceptional offering combines usable acreage, existing residences, a private well, established infrastructure and an extraordinary setting. Whether envisioned as a private sanctuary, multigenerational retreat or landmark estate, 3173 Roblar Avenue presents a rare opportunity to create something truly lasting in the heart of the Santa Ynez Valley.
