Welcome to Wellspring Ranch, a unique and versatile property offering a blend of historic charm and modern conveniences, set against the backdrop of stunning California countryside. Nestled on a 212-acre parcel in the beautiful Santa Rita AVA, surrounded by multiple award-winning vineyards and wineries, this exceptional property boasts multiple residences and extensive facilities, ideal for agricultural/vineyard, farming, cattle, equestrian, and recreational use. The main house, built in 1946 and thoughtfully remodeled in 2005 and 2018, spans approximately 3,500 sq. ft. and features 5 bedrooms and 3 bathrooms, providing ample space for family and guests. The original house, a charming 1920s 1,500 sq. ft. residence with 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, was initially remodeled in 2014 and again in 2018, blending modern comforts with its original character. The bunkhouse, a cozy 1,225 sq. ft. Western-style retreat, includes 2 bedrooms and 1 bathroom, offering an authentic old Western town feel. Additional living quarters include a two-story apartment house and additional storage with an attached 1,500 sq. ft. building perfect for meetings, weddings, or versatile storage needs, designed to resemble an old Western town facade completed in 2018. A comfortable 2-bedroom, 2-bathroom manufactured unit, as well as single-wide trailers and worker quarters currently serving as offices, provide versatile accommodation options. For events and utility spaces, there is a 1,500 sq. ft. building perfect for meetings, weddings, or versatile storage needs, and a sprawling 5,000 sq. ft. barn that includes 3 stalls, a tack room, and extensive hay storage. Wellsprings Ranch is well-equipped with agricultural resources, featuring an agricultural well and pump system installed in 2003, delivering a remarkable 600 to 900 gallons per minute, with a 10'' underground pipe distributing water to the lower fields. Approximately 50 acres benefit from underground irrigation piping, and a 35,000-gallon in-ground cistern, gravity-fed by two springs, ensures a consistent water supply. Enjoy significant property tax benefits under the Williamson Act, enhancing the property's agricultural viability. Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the covered horse barns and fenced arena, ideal for optimal horse care. While Wellsprings Ranch offers a secluded retreat that feels a world away, it is conveniently located just 10 minutes from shopping and amenities in Buellton, CA. This perfect balance allows for a peaceful lifestyle with easy access to modern conveniences. Wellsprings Ranch is a rare opportunity to own a property that combines historic charm, modern amenities, and vast potential for agricultural, equestrian, and recreational pursuits.
