About this property
Nestled just 40 minutes east of Redding, CA, in Shasta County, Bear Mountain Ranch awaits. This expansive estate, encompassing over 1,113 acres, unfolds beyond its grand, gated entrance, offering a serene, private haven with breathtaking views of Mt. Lassen. A scenic brick-paved driveway winds its way past two of the eight ponds on the property, where you'll arrive at the courtyard at the base of the walkway to the main house. The main home is a custom four bedroom, three and a half bath home featuring a kitchen with breakfast sunroom, formal dining area, spacious game room, office, an attached two-car garage, and detached five-car garage. For idyllic Shasta County days, take a dip in the outdoor heated pool or enjoy your favorite beverage at the poolside cantina or wine-tasting deck. Guests are comfortable as well with an off-grid 1,150 SF hunting cabin just a mile from the home. If needed, a well-equipped solar system and generator allow the ranch to be completely off-grid. The ranch offers the potential for expansion witharchitectural plans for a proposed 9,024 SF residence that could be built on an existing, previously permitted foundation. Bear Mountain Ranch embodies a sophisticated Western elegance. From the brickwork, fountains, gardens, gazebos, fences, and wood-carved bears standing on guard throughout the property, no detail was spared. With its multiple barns, a large shop, a tree house, water, and electrical storage buildings, the ranch is well-equipped. Tons of water! Bear Mountain Ranch has district water conveyed through an eight-inch underground pipe, two wells, two year-round creeks, and eight ponds. 31 irrigated meadow acres benefit from this abundant water and are hayed seasonally. The ranch is an outdoor recreational haven. Fish or kayak/canoe on the eight ponds, view or hunt the wildlife teeming throughout the ranch with common sightings of big game such as elk, deer, pig, and bear. Also, abundant geese and ducks frequent the ponds, and resident turkeys and quail can be spotted. Practice your shot at the private outdoor shooting range. Explore expansive ranch roads ideal for horseback riding, hiking, and ATV adventures. Horse facilities with fenced and gated pastures/turnouts cater to equestrian pursuits effortlessly. Beyond its recreational appeal, Bear Mountain Ranch features a small cattle operation complete with a hydraulic chute, corrals, and pens. Bear Mountain Ranch transcends a mere residence; it's a legacy waiting to be embraced. Recreating this level of detail and infrastructure would demand a significant investment. Fortunately, everything necessary is already in place here at Bear Mountain Ranch. Come experience it for yourself!

Buyer checklist
Questions worth investigating for any farm or ranch purchase. They are not claims that this property has a problem or meets any condition.
- Legal accessIs there deeded or recorded access to a public road, and are there easements across the land (or that the land relies on)?
- Water rights and wellsA well, pond, creek or irrigation system does not by itself establish a legal right to use the water. Ask for the water right, permit or registration documents and test the well.
- Leases and tenanciesAre there farm, grazing, hunting, CRP, oil and gas or wind leases? Some survive a sale or require notice before they end.
- Soil and usable landHow many acres can actually be cropped or grazed? Check the NRCS soil survey and get a current lab soil test for the use you plan.
- RestrictionsZoning, conservation easements, deed restrictions, HOA rules, floodplain and wetland rules can limit what you can do.
- Building conditionBarns, fences, wells and septic systems need inspection; a listed building may not suit a commercial or livestock use.
- UtilitiesPower, water, septic capacity, internet and road maintenance: who provides them and at what cost.
- What is included in the saleEquipment, growing crops, stored hay, livestock, irrigation equipment, permits and farm program contracts are often separate. Get it in writing.
