Lark Hill Ranch is an equestrian compound with everything a horse enthusiast could desire. This equestrian gem is outfitted with an 7-stall barn plus tack room, round pen, and a 100' x 200' arena with sprinklers. In 2014 the owner added a sizable utility barn with 3 tall bays large enough for a motor coach and other RV equipment, and houses a party/media room and apartment. The approx. 2500 Sq.ft. main home has 3 bedrooms and 3.5 baths and is finished high ceilings, recessed lights, and stone-clad gas fireplace. Outside under the covered patio you'll find outdoor kitchen area with views of the pool and spa. As if this weren't enough there is an additional 1-bedroom granny unit and extra storage building, plus owned-solar. All of this and enough open land for an orchard, boutique vineyard, Lavender, and more. Located in Ballard School District. This property is ready to go.
