Investment Insights

Based on property information with market context.

This ranch property spans approximately 300 acres and is characterized by sparsely populated oak savannah, expansive open rangeland, and riparian corridors. Dry Creek flows through the property, and there is also a seasonal creek that runs in winter. An iconic truss bridge was constructed in 2018, and the ranch also includes Fish & Game and CDF approved and permitted bridges. The interior topography rises from lower reaches at roughly 1,000 feet elevation toward Bald Mountain, which is about 1,580 feet above sea level and offers wide-ranging hillside views. The property consists of two legal parcels, and the general plan is 30 acres per parcel. A winter cattle lease is currently in place on a handshake agreement.

Multiple access points provide flexibility, including a separate entrance off Ballantree Lane. Recreational use is supported by documented wildlife presence on the ranch, including black-tail deer, wild pigs, upland game birds, and turkeys. Shopping conveniences are described as being about 15 minutes away, and Penn Valley or Grass Valley is within a 30–35 minute reach.

With its mix of grazing ground, water features, and elevated vistas, this offering is suited to buyers looking for an operating cattle ranch and/or outdoor recreation. The combination of internal ranch roads, established access, and permitted bridge infrastructure also supports practical use for owners planning a future residence or long-term land management approach.
