Rare opportunity to own over 43 acres in the heart of one of California's most celebrated wine regions -- the Santa Rita Hills AVA -- at one of the most compelling price-per-acre values available in any premier California appellation. At approximately 9,100/acre, this is land banking at its finest. Enjoy sweeping, unobstructed views across the rolling hills and valleys that have made the Santa Rita Hills world-famous for Pinot Noir and Chardonnay. The land is partially fenced, features a barn-like structure, and all vehicles, tractor, and on-site equipment are included in the sale -- ready for agricultural or recreational use from day one. Whether your vision is a future vineyard estate, a working agricultural parcel, recreational retreat, or long-term land investment, this property delivers the raw ingredients: dramatic topography, incredible views, agricultural zoning, and a coveted AVA address. Please note: Due to existing CC&Rs, no building permits are currently being issued for residential construction. This property is ideal as an agricultural, recreational, or land banking investment. A well will be needed for water service. Access is via a newly paved road at the end of Sweeney Road. A road improvement assessment for this recently constructed access road is to be paid separately by the buyer -- ask agent for details. Don't miss this chance to hold ground in one of California's most sought-after appellations. Properties like this -- at this price, in this AVA -- rarely come to market.
