BAR GO RANCH

SANTA BARBARA COUNTY

Descending from two original Spanish land grants in the vast rolling hills of the Santa Ynez Valley, The Bar Go Ranch embodies quintessential California history.  Stunning vistas, meandering creeks, nostalgic farm style barns and corrals set the stage for this 3250 acre cattle and horse ranch.  The classic headquarters residence offers over -7000--sq. feet with massive open-trussed ceilings, wood floors, spacious country kitchen and living areas.  Conveniently, a private apartment with 2 bedrooms and full bath overlooks the valley and ranch improvements. Expansive decks, pool and tennis court augment the beautiful outdoor entertainment areas and a priceless old west lifestyle. Additional residential improvements include a charming manager's residence and large employee apartment.

In addition, the ranch offers the unique opportuity to build multiple residences  with 18 legal parcels and certificates of compliance.  It would lend itself beautifully to a corporate retreat with flexible development of lodging or with a vision for a generational preserve. There are 18 legal certificates of compliance.  There are indvidual contracts for each parcel in the Williamson Act.  

This extraordinary rancho is currently utilized for cattle grazing and equine pursuits.  Lovely trails wind through the ranch with an abundance of wildlife and stands of ancient oaks, pines and sycamore trees.  The topography and climate are well suited for high quality Cabernet Sauvignon and Sauvignon Blanc and the land is within the Happy Canyon AVA known for its premium wines. 

Only 10 minutes from world-class restaurants, wine tasting and picturesque villages and 30 minutes from the sophisticated city of Santa Barbara.  It offers an ideal escape to a private world of serenity and beauty in the heart of the American Riviera.
