Enjoy the history and function of this working horse and cattle ranch in the Sierra Foothills, only an hour from Yosemite National Park. This valley has been cut out from the live oak offering seven separately fenced open fields yielding spring and summer feed for your livestock. Here you will find an abundance of water via two developed wells in addition to undeveloped springs, holding ponds and seasonal creeks. This ranch was settled in the late 1800's by the Wass family, well known in Mariposa even to this day. The original ranch house was completely updated in 2002/2003 creating a modern home while maintaining its original charm. The finishes in the kitchen include granite counter-tops, stainless appliances and a SubZero fridge. From the kitchen window you overlook your very own apple orchard, an expansive lawn, the eastern horse pasture and then in the distance the snow capped Sierra Mountain Range. The picturesque wooden barn is also fully functional and includes pipe-rail corrals and a squeeze chute. This ranch is enrolled in the Williamson Act Land Conservation Contract in which landowners receive substantially reduced property tax assessments. Property tax assessments of Williamson Act contracted land are based upon generated income as opposed to potential market value of the property. Come tour this lovely home and expansive land today!
