About this home
Rare opportunity to acquire an expansive Sierra Foothill ranch in Mariposa County, offering approx. 1,888 acres of private, scenic land just about 45 minutes from Yosemite National Park. This remarkable property is being offered as one ranch and consists of 8 legal parcels, creating flexibility for agricultural use, recreation, conservation, long-term ownership, or potential future resale of individual parcels, subject to county requirements and buyer verification. The ranch features a 3-bedroom, 2-bath Western-style residence of approx. 1,642 sq. ft. , positioned to capture sweeping views across the surrounding foothills, meadows, trees, and open range. Recent improvements include fresh interior paint, hardwood flooring added inside the home, and updates to the garage area. The land extends from Ben Hur Road to White Rock Road, offering access from both areas. Seven parcels are reportedly zoned AEZ, Agricultural Exclusive Zone, and five parcels are reportedly enrolled in the Williamson Act/Land Conservation Act, which may allow favorable property tax treatment when maintained for qualifying agricultural uses such as grazing or similar operations. Buyer to independently verify zoning, parcel status, Williamson Act enrollment, permitted uses, acreage, boundaries, access, and land-use matters with the appropriate county and professional advisors. Water infrastructure has been enhanced with the addition of a well reported to produce approx. 7 gallons per minute. The property includes approx. 5,000 gallons of combined water storage capacity, with reported production capability in excess of 9,000 gallons per 24-hour period. Buyer to independently verify all well production, water storage, water quality, water rights, pumping capacity, and utility systems. Natural features include portions of Mariposa Creek, seasonal waterways, a pond or lake, open meadows, oak-studded terrain, varied native trees, and elevation changes ranging approx. from 1,500 to 2,500 feet. The setting offers a classic foothill landscape with privacy, usable acreage, scenic views, and potential for ranching, outdoor recreation, agricultural pursuits, and legacy ownership. The current owner is also working on additional land stewardship improvements, including clearing portions of Lots 6 and 7 and planting decorative trees along Ben Hur Road. Buyer to verify the status, scope, timing, approvals, and completion of any planned or in-progress improvements.

A "GOLDEN OPPORTUNITY" to own your own Sierra Foothill Ranch in Mariposa County, CA! This 1,888+/- acre Private Ranch is located just 45 minutes from Yosemite National Park and is being sold as one Ranch BUT if the new owner would like to sell off any of the parcels individually, this will be acceptable to do so. The Family has gone to great lengths to create or subdivide the ranch into multiple parcels to allow the owner to sell off individual parcels, as shown on the attached Parcel Maps showing the respective parcels. There are 8 legal parcels which 7 of the parcels are zoned AEZ (Agricultural Exclusive Zone) 5 of which are in the LCA- Williamson Act allowing for reduced property tax rate as long as you maintain the property as income producing agricultural uses (cattle grazing or similar). There is a 1642 SF Western Home located on one of the parcels which is a 3BR/2BA home and overlooks a large part of the property with excellent views. The ranch spans from Ben Hur Road to White Rock Road which allows for good access from both roads. Other features of this expansive ranch are: Mariposa Creek runs through part of the ranch, other seasonal creeks run through the property, there is a pond or lake on the property, open meadows, considerable Oaks and other varieties of trees across the ranch and much more! The ranch elevation ranges from 1500' to 2500' elevation which is "above the fog and below the snow" most of the time! This would be considered a "Hunters Paradise" as wildlife has roamed here freely for years! This property will not last long so give us a call today for a discreet showing. Buyers will need to provide proof of funds before viewing.
