Discover a truly rare opportunity to own a turnkey ranch spanning more than 20 acres of breathtaking natural beauty. Privately nestled among rolling hills with sweeping ocean and valley views, this exceptional estate blends productive agriculture, quality residences, modern infrastructure, and the tranquility of country living. The property features two beautifully appointed homes, making it ideal for multi-generational living, guest accommodations, or caretaker housing. The primary residence, a custom-built 3,300± square foot single-level ranch home completed in 1997, offers an inviting open layout with 3 spacious bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, a dedicated office, and an attached 3-car garage. Expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape, creating a seamless connection between indoor comfort and the spectacular scenery. Complementing the main residence is a charming 2570± square foot Southern-style farmhouse, built in 1999, featuring 4 bedrooms, 3 bathrooms, a private office, an attached 2-car garage, and an approximately 450-square-foot workshop--perfect for hobbies, equipment storage, or agricultural operations. Designed for efficiency and sustainability, the ranch is equipped with an impressive array of modern amenities, including a 14.3 kVA solar electric system, 22 kVA natural gas backup generator, solar hot water systems, and tankless water heaters serving both homes. A newly upgraded irrigation and fertilization system supports the property’s thriving agricultural production. At the heart of the ranch is a highly productive 16-acre avocado grove, featuring carefully managed new plantings that are steadily reaching full production and offering exceptional long-term income potential. Adding to the property’s appeal is a young vineyard now producing its first full harvest of Grenache, Syrah, Mourvèdre, and Viognier grapes--ideal varietals for crafting distinguished GSM blends. Agricultural operations are supported by water from a recently reconditioned shared well serving eleven neighboring ranches, providing a reliable and valuable resource. Whether you’re seeking a legacy family estate, a productive agricultural investment, a vineyard lifestyle, or a peaceful retreat surrounded by extraordinary natural beauty, this remarkable property offers a rare combination of two quality residences, established agricultural income, modern infrastructure, exceptional privacy, and stunning coastal and valley vistas. This is more than a ranch--it’s a legacy property that embodies the very best of California country living.
