This 68.5-acre Pope Valley estate is a move-in-ready, self-sustaining country retreat bordered by 400+ acres of protected conservation land. Exceptional water infrastructure features perennial creek frontage, two year-round springs, a well, and three 2,500-gallon holding tanks with 2 tanks feeding a gravity-flow system to the home and main grounds. The scenic land features a fenced yard for your pets along with a chicken enclosure for farm-to-table fresh eggs. Enjoy an open meadow, perennials, and wildflowers, with plenty of room for outdoor gardening, agriculture, and livestock expansion. The well-maintained 1,716 sq. ft. 3BD/2BA home includes an interior office, 2022 roof, and 2022 exterior paint. Outbuildings include a detached art studio, 2-car garage, and 220V RV hookup. Zoned Agricultural Watershed (AW), offering future potential for a primary residence, ADU, JADU, and guest cottage (buyer to verify county allowances). Positioned for regional benefit, this site sits just miles from the multi-billion-dollar Guenoc Valley Project ultra-luxury resort development, placing it directly in the path of premier growth. Secluded and expansive, yet just 15 minutes to Middletown, 19 miles to St. Helena, and under 2 hours to San Francisco. Tenant-occupied; 48-hour notice required for showings. Photos are from 2022.
