7401 Schaad Rd Wilseyville, CA 95257

Founded in 1873, the 191-acre Schaad Ranch in Wilseyville, California, presents a rare opportunity to acquire a century ranch. Perched at approximately 3,000 feet in elevation, the ranch overlooks open grazing land, timbered forest, and the Mokelumne River canyon. The property borders over 200 acres of protected BLM land, creating a wilderness buffer. A dedicated ATV route leads to the Middle Fork of the Mokelumne River, complemented by Forest Creek and Boston Gulch. The ranch operates fully off-grid with solar power, a private well, septic, and propane support. The custom residence captures sweeping views and natural light. More than 130 acres have undergone professional forest mastication (2022/2025), establishing a park-like setting with reduced fuel loads. An active Non-Industrial Timber Management Plan supports long-term stewardship and responsible land use. The land supports livestock, open meadows, and regenerative agricultural potential. Envisioned as a private family compound, an equestrian or agricultural estate, or a multigenerational community, Schaad Ranch offers both scale and flexibility. Yosemite National Park lies roughly 60–70 miles to the south, and Calaveras Big Trees State Park is approximately an hour away. The historic Gold Country towns of Murphys and Sonora provide dining and wine tasting. Sacramento and Lake Tahoe are reachable in roughly two hours.
