Property Description

In the same way that wine growers talk about "terroir" – or the complete natural environment in which a wine is produced - the terroir of the 20-acre horse ranch that legendary American Thoroughbred racehorse, Songbird, grew up on is rich & deep. Songbird was raised on early morning coastal breezes that came in off of the Pacific. Late summer sunshine. Deep well water. Sunsets that arched overhead and gave way to starry nights. A ranch that gave rise to a legend. The main residence was built in 1991, but extensively remodeled when the current owners purchased the property. Unique features of the home include solid 1" thick walnut flooring; a basement & finished attic; patios with 2" thick Oklahoma flagstone; custom cedar front doors and the crown jewel of the home - the 1,100 sqft Master Bedroom suite. In addition to the main home is an apartment with a living room, dining area & kitchen and a manufactured home used as on on-site Ranch Manager's Quarters. Pastures include (2) 3-acre pastures, and (3) 1-acre pastures. There are ten 15x25 pens, a breaking pen, and an equipped exerciser pen. The 10-stall barn consists of (2) 16x16 stalls and (8) 10x16 stalls, 5 of which have outside access. There are 2 wells on the property, which combined produce 700 gallons/minute. This isn’t just ranchin' country, this is wine country, too. The Santa Ynez valley is a burgeoning producer of fine wines, so if horses aren’t your thing (yet), you could convert some of the property to vineyards.
