Welcome to Rancho Monte Alegre: the happy mountain ranch. Once a gathering place for Hollywood royalty including Robert Mitchum and John Wayne, this beautiful land offers a rare opportunity to design your ideal secluded home and lifestyle, on one of the last untouched locations along California’s Central Coast. The vision for this community can be summed up in two words: exclusivity and privacy. Lot features stunning ocean, coastline, and mountain views and is located in an exclusive private gated community. Enjoy access to 2,800+ acres of deeded open space and a multi-use trail system. Limited only by your imagination, this lot can include a main house, guesthouse, pool cabana, farm worker dwelling and barns allowing for family compounds. Lot 18 is truly remarkable. The lot boasts approximately 160 acres, beautiful ocean and mountain views, a large building envelope, building areas for a barn and guesthouse, agricultural envelope for orchards, additional buildings and includes utilities, municipal water plus ability to have a private well. The "Back Ranch" is accessed by a significant bridge over Santa Monica Creek, which you drove over to get to Lot 18, where you enter a private kingdom with spectacular ocean and mountain views, miles of trails, waterfalls, and swimming holes right in your own backyard. Stretching clear back as far as the eye can see, Rancho Monte Alegre is bordered by Los Padres National Forest and has private access to the Franklin trail: the gateway to experiencing Los Padres National Forest . This is an incredibly rare opportunity for the right buyer.
