Big Bend Ranch spans 108± acres near the intersection of Hwy 1 and Jalama Road in Santa Barbara County, where rolling rangeland, mature oaks and the El Jaro Creek corridor frame an authentic, highly improved Western horse and cattle ranch. The performance-horse headquarters centers on a large loping and schooling arena paired with a dedicated cutting pen, supported by extensive pipe-fenced holding and sorting pens, covered turnouts, a round pen, stalls, tack and feed facilities, wash area, cattle-working pens and squeeze chute. A remodeled ranch residence, substantial shop, equipment and storage buildings, gated entries and improved ranch roads complete the headquarters. The ranch supports approximately 70 head of beef cattle. Water infrastructure includes two wells, a 35,000-gallon cistern and a permitted reservoir, supported by a detailed 2020 hydrology study available for review. A conservation easement held by The Land Trust for Santa Barbara County protects the ranch's agricultural, ecological and scenic character while providing for continued farming, ranching and residential use. The property is also enrolled under the Williamson Act, which may provide meaningful property-tax benefits associated with its continued agricultural use. At the gateway to Jalama, Big Bend offers a rare convergence of working-ranch capability, serious Western horse infrastructure and protected California land near the coast.
