Listing Description

In the heart of Santa Ynez sits a piece of paradise; an extraordinary 7.23-acre ranch estate that is truly an entertainer's dream haven. Framed by breathtaking mountain and valley views, the centerpiece of this valley oasis is a magnificent 1.2-acre lake.

The beautifully landscaped grounds feature gravel paved walkways and rock-lined water features with wooden bridges, leading to a scenic lake-view deck and a private dock offering direct access to pedal boats, canoes, and kayaks. For equestrian enthusiasts, a 4-stall barn includes a tack room and a riding arena.

The grounds boast a thriving 450-tree orchard with a diverse variety of fruits and nuts, as well as four distinct varieties of table grapevines, and a flourishing garden bursting with berries, tomatoes, broccoli, mint, and more. Two charming gazebos offer idyllic spots to take in the scenery that is supported by a private water well.

The estate features a 3-bedroom, 3-bathroom main house of +/-2,076 square feet surrounded by wrap-around porches and decks that include a private, in-deck spa. A versatile 4-car garage setup, split into two 2-car garages with a shared laundry room and half-bath between them, is topped by a +/-815 square foot guest house, perfect for extended family or visitors.

Engineered for self-sufficiency and peace of mind, the estate is supported by a high-yielding private well, two independent septic systems, and a robust solar energy system. Ruff Ranch, a canine boarding and training facility operates on a separated portion of the property. Whether envisioned as a family compound, a working ranch, or a savvy investment, this Santa Ynez masterpiece offers a lifestyle of absolute freedom and abundance.
