            <title>Orchid Mountain</title>
            <link>http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/Real_Estate/Ranches_For_Sale/965_Orchid_Mountain</link>
            <description>&lt;img src='http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/./pictures/listings/th_medium_965_16.jpg'; align='left'; height='80'&gt;Built by a wealthy orchid fancier in 1980, this all brick, four bedroom home scoffs at convention with two bedroom wings and a great room all opening onto a connecting greenhouse full of bananas, lemons, pineapples and any other fruit or vegetable one might care to cultivate in this year round tropical garden. 

The property was intended to be entirely self sufficient and off the grid with two windmills, one for electrical generation to be stored in a bunker of batteries and the other for water. Commercial electric service now serves the property but active solar hot water panels still supply heat in conjunction with modern HVAC systems. The windmills still exist but have not functioned for quite some time. The current owners have installed a wonderful kitchen and added an indoor heated pool allowing year-round swimming in the privacy of your mountain oasis.

While the home is entirely unique and somewhat eccentric, the land is truly magnificent ranging from 800 feet to 1800 feet in elevation. Seemingly in the middle of nowhere yet just five minutes from route 29, the 303 acres on the slopes of Archer mountain offers exceptional diversity and endless opportunity to enjoy Virginia’s Piedmont in its most wild and natural state. The lower reaches of the property have several open meadows totaling about 30 acres, plenty of room for a few horses if desired and an ideal exposure for a small vineyard. The balance of the land is heavy woodland with massive timber in several areas. Several streams run through the property, and trails exist for hiking or riding up onto Archer Mountain.

If privacy is paramount and a passion for Virginia’s flora and fauna is in your soul, perhaps this most unique property is in your future. While neighbors are few and far between, Charlottesville and the University of Virginia are an easy 35 minute drive, and Washington DC is just a little over two hours north.</description>

            <title>Ridgeway Farm</title>
            <link>http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/Real_Estate/Ranches_For_Sale/964_Ridgeway_Farm</link>
            <description>&lt;img src='http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/./pictures/listings/th_medium_964_16.jpg'; align='left'; height='80'&gt;Located in the heart of Virginia’s wine country and comprised of excellent soils, these 185 acres of rolling fields and forest are suitable for any agricultural pursuit. Until very recently, Ridgeview Farm has been a productive cattle and hay farm along with professional horse facilities for the owner’s daughter. The farm is well watered with three good streams and two stocked ponds. There is an excellent site for a large lake within the property. 

The mid 19th century farmhouse has been beautifully renovated by the current owners and now offers four bedrooms and three and one half baths in approximately 4200 finished square feet. Adjacent to the home is a charming guest cottage and pool.

Outbuildings include three attractive barns built for the owner’s classic car collection. One bay is a shop with a hydraulic lift. These buildings have clear open space inside and would be ideal for a small winery.

The horse facilities have not been fully utilized for a few years but are well suited for the serious hobbyist or professional  equestrian. There are two center aisle horse barns with a total of twenty stalls and an extra long lighted  indoor arena measuring 60’ by 220’. The front third of the property is fenced and cross fenced with three board horse fencing and the back of the property is in well maintained woven wire fencing. The farm and all improvements have been impeccably maintained.

Ridgeview Farm is located near Barboursville in Southern Orange County, a surprisingly quick 20 minutes from Charlottesville and less than two hours from Washington DC in light traffic. The property is made up of three tax map parcels and has long state road frontage. There are no added restrictions on the property making it an ideal candidate for a conservation easement or an unencumbered investment property.</description>

            <title>520 Acre - Lockwood Valley Hunting Ranch For Sale</title>
            <link>http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/Real_Estate/Ranches_For_Sale/814_520_Acre_Lockwood_Valley_Hunting_Ranch_For_Sale</link>
            <description>&lt;img src='http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/./pictures/listings/th_medium_814_16.jpg'; align='left'; height='81'&gt;This is an amazing recreational/hunting ranch. Oaks, Pines, gorgeous open fields planted to barley, plus top of the world views from the high elevations which create total privacy. Due to the location of the entrance on Lockwood San Lucas Road, the home is completely secluded and hidden away, although it is just very short distance from the paved county maintained road. Once you close that gate behind you the tranquility afforded by this amazing location is immediate.

Situated on a paved county maintained road, west of Hwy. 101 between King City in Southern Monterey County and Paso Robles in Northern San Luis Obispo County. Lockwood San Lucas Road runs North to Hwy 101 to the King City area of Southern Monterey County as well as in a Southerly direction which would take you to Hwy 101 near the San Luis Obispo County line or lakes San Antonio or Nacimiento. There is a general store just down the road in Lockwood. The property is contiguous to thousands of acres of BLM land allowing for unlimited hunting and other recreational activities. The subject property is partially fenced. Wildlife in the area include deer, fox, pigs, raccoon, doves, and mountain lions.
FARMING: Currently there is approximately 50 acres planted in barley.
THE WELL: The well was completed in November of 2002 by Miller Drilling Company. The estimated yield via a blow test is 30 GPM. The Well Completion Report is attached. The well is located inside the pump house near the main road, and has a 3 HP submersible pump. The well pumps to a 5000 gallon steel storage tank at the back of the property through a two-inch water line which runs along one of the perimeter roads. Water is stubbed up at the equipment barn, and at three water troughs which are placed along the road for the wildlife. There is an additional 1500-gallon water tank located above the cabin, which gravity flows to the cabin.
THE ROAD SYSTEM: The road to the cabin from the County Road is a well maintained and based all weather road. There is a complete graded road system which circles the entire valley of the ranch with graded branches to a few of the mountain tops which provide unlimited views.
THE CABIN: The cabin is approximately 920-sq.-ft., and completely secluded from the road and other properties. The original date the cabin was built is unknown. The county records indicate 1956, however, no one knows when the cabin was built, but clearly it was built before permits were required. It is believed that the original cabin was constructed with mortared stacked rock foundation and walls and had a dirt floor. Over the years each owner has done their own “unpermitted” improvements, the dirt floor has been covered with concrete or vinyl . The cabin has a newer metal roof and all of the old roofing was removed prior to the installation of the new “unpermitted” roof.


The Living Room is open and bright with many windows and a huge wood stove type fireplace with the original rock wall backdrop. The very cute and functional kitchen opens to the living room, has a dining area, a propane stove, stainless steel sink with tile counters and a Propane Refrigerator. There are three additional rooms which are referred to as bedrooms …. Mostly unfinished and without a closet. The back room, (largest of the three) does have a closet. There is one bath room with a shower. The Front brick patio has a wonderful arbor which is covered with grape vines. It has been a rumored that the grapes are old Mission grapes brought in from the San Antonio Mission, however, this has never been verified.
The cabin has a 125 gallon propane tank (rented from Wildhorse Propane Company) which supplies the cabin stove, refrigerator and water heater ~~~ all which stay. The Cabin is heated by a wood burning stove. There is Direct TV, the telephone is ATT. The distance from the power at the well to the cabin is about ¼ mile.
There is a 40 foot x 70 foot steel equipment shed plus a generator shed, a tool shed, wood shed and a garage which is used as a shop.


THE LAND:Secluded, Oaks and Pines, farming fields, steep brush covered mountains and a meandering canyon with side roads to gorgeous view sites. The Topography is level to very steep, with level areas on the surrounding mountain tops providing amazing views. There is a small portion of land on the Westerly side of the Road, and this piece also provides access to BLM (see MAP).
The property has not been surveyed and is only partially fenced. There are some corner monuments on the property.
This is just an amazing get away recreational property, well located, very private with loads of wildlife. For those looking to build a beautiful home, the basics are there with a good well and power at the road. The cabin is NOT permitted. The Seller purchased the property as such and is selling the property in the same manner… the cabin and property are sold as is with no warranties or representations. Seller is to certify that Seller understands cabin is of no value and does not have a permit.</description>

            <title>100+ Acres in Paso Robles</title>
            <link>http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/Real_Estate/Ranches_For_Sale/474_100_Acres_in_Paso_Robles</link>
            <description>&lt;img src='http://www.vinesmart.com/wine/./pictures/listings/th_medium_474_16.jpg'; align='left'; height='80'&gt;This is one of the most spectacular and private ranches outside of Paso Robles.  The terrain is a combination of rolling meadows in oaks and approximately 27 acres in irrigatable farm ground.  Currently the farm ground is leased in hay.
	The centerpiece of the ranch is a lovely approximate 3600 sq ft home that sits on a bluff overlooking the Huero Huero River and points beyond.  There are four bedrooms and four bathrooms.  A modern country kitchen is in place that has great views and a cozy setting.  There is a separate family room, living room and dining room.  A beautiful staircase, in the entry way, leads to the upstairs area.  It’s a great home to live in and entertain your friends.  A very private setting.
	When you enter the ranch, through a wrought iron gate, a road meanders down through the field and up to the homes.  As you veer off to the left you enter an area with three very large pole barns, a fenced cattle area and an 8 stall Barnmaster Barn. In the meadow, out front, there is an ag well and a domestic well.  Oak trees dot the entire meadow.
	Driving on the upper road a 2 pond retention system sits amongst a forest of oak trees and meadows.  The owner does not use the ponds and improvements would need to be made on both ponds for efficient water retention. This is a beautiful part of the ranch.
	Before you arrive at the main home you pass a cute 1 bedroom guest home with absolute million dollar views.  Just past the guest home is a large pole barn used for equipment storage.  Contiguous to the pole barn is a great shop next to another covered storage area.  For you R.V. enthusiasts there is a 50 foot R.V. Barn!
	Another set of gates leads on up to the main home, a covered entry, 3 stall garage and a large concrete circular drive.  You will not be disappointed when you view this ranch.  Bring your checkbook! This property is in the Ag Preserve for low taxes!
