About this property

An extraordinary opportunity to own one of Southern California's most unique legacy properties. Encompassing approximately 68 private acres in Los Angeles County, this remarkable estate offers an exceptional combination of history, infrastructure, privacy, and limitless potential. Bordering the Angeles National Forest and the San Gabriel Mountains to the south, the property enjoys an unparalleled setting of protected natural beauty, while panoramic views extend north toward Parker Mountain, creating breathtaking vistas in every direction. Along this particular stretch of Soledad Canyon, the canyon uniquely runs east to westan uncommon orientation in Southern California. This natural corridor allows cool ocean air to flow inland through the canyon, contributing to a refreshing microclimate and enhancing the property's year-round enjoyment. As the last privately owned property bordering the Angeles National Forest along this stretch of Soledad Canyon Road, there are no roads or easements crossing the property, preserving uninterrupted views, remarkable privacy, and an extraordinary sense of seclusion rarely found in Los Angeles County. The landscape is richly populated with mature palm trees, striking cactus varieties, native manzanita, chaparral, yucca, maguey, and other indigenous high desert vegetation, creating a dramatic and authentic California landscape. At the heart of the property lies a historic gold-bearing mine, adding a rare and authentic piece of California history to this extraordinary estate. The property has also served as the backdrop for major motion pictures, television productions, and national commercial campaigns, including Westworld, the feature film Mojave, Amazon commercial productions, and numerous other entertainment projects. An established road network, three dedicated parking areas, and extensive production infrastructure have successfully accommodated large-scale film productions. A location manager familiar with the property is available upon request. Significant capital improvements further distinguish this offering, including over $500,000 invested in electrical and utility infrastructure. The property features new utility poles, transformers, fire-protected electrical lines, a new permitted main electrical service, and electrical distribution throughout the ranch. A productive 138-foot private well supplies a 10,000-gallon epoxy-coated steel storage tank, with approximately one mile of buried 2-inch PVC water lines delivering water to the residence, barns, and all permitted structures throughout the property. Additional improvements include a commercial-sized 5,000-gallon septic system, upgraded copper water lines, insulated plumbing, new ABS waste lines, upgraded fencing and gates, and extensive structural enhancements. Multiple permitted buildings provide exceptional flexibility for restoration, renovation, or reimagining. Whether envisioned as a luxury estate, equestrian ranch, private retreat, family compound, premier filming location, wellness retreat, corporate getaway, or long-term investment, the possibilities are extraordinary. Buyer to verify with Los Angeles County all information, including future development or subdivision potential.
