Opportunities to own within the legendary, 10,000-acre Alisal Ranch are few and far between. Surrounded by wide-open pastures, heritage oaks, and protected views of the Santa Ynez Mountains, life within this private, historic community is peaceful, spacious, and deeply connected to the land. Optional membership to the Signature Club grants access to a private lake, horseback riding, and other world-class amenities. Within the resident gates at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac on 1.5 acres, this fully remodeled 3-bed, 2-bath farmhouse is thoughtfully positioned to maximize both views and privacy, with no visible neighbors and sweeping vistas of vineyards, olive groves, and the mountains beyond. Inside, rustic charm meets refined comfort. The kitchen features zinc countertops, honed travertine floors, a spacious pantry, and a farmhouse sink that evokes the feel of a French country home. Both bathrooms are finished with marble countertops and radiant heated floors, while the primary suite offers a soaking tub with dramatic mountain views and the rare chance to stargaze from bed. Outside, a mature orchard, generous vegetable garden, and circular driveway add both beauty and function, with plenty of room for a future pool, spa, or outdoor entertaining are. Inquire for details about the leasehold nature of this turnkey property and discover the timeless lifestyle of Alisal Ranch.
