This exquisite Ranch is set in the heart of the coveted Mattole Valley, in the foothills of the Lost Coast Kings Range National Conservation Area. Spanning 800+/- acres, the land offers a unique mix of natural beauty and working lands. It features one mile of Mattole River frontage and another mile of Honeydew Creek, which flows across the property before meeting the river. A custom 80-foot widened railcar bridge with an electric gate and concrete abutments ensures year-round access to the entirety of the property. The Honeydew Creek estuary, fed by Bear Trap Creek, provides critical coho salmon habitat. The property borders BLM land to the south, with large ranches to the east and west, and includes multiple swimming holes, over four miles of rocked private roads, and direct commercial access from a paved county road.
Despite its privacy, the ranch is only a mile from the Honeydew General Store, its closest neighbor, and has grid power and Wi-Fi across all buildings. The land is diverse and productive, with 100 tillable acres, 380 acres of Douglas fir, 120 acres of hardwoods, and more than 300 acres of fenced grazing land currently stocked with cattle. It consists of three legal parcels: 613 acres, 200 acres, and 1.7 acres zoned TPZ and AG-160. The property is also home to Honeydew Farms, Humboldt County's largest and one of the most well-known cannabis operations. Established in 2015 as California's first legally permitted cannabis farm, it has grown into a nationally recognized, award-winning brand, featured on Cannacribs and other documentaries. The farm currently maintains 290,000+/- square feet of active cultivation canopy, with the potential to expand to 8 acres. 39 Greenhouses and 64 hoop houses support light-deprivation farming, enabling multiple harvests per year.
Additionally, 2.5 acres of fenced outdoor fields can also be converted into greenhouses. Active licenses include seven medium cultivation licenses and one processor's license, allowing processing for other farms. The property also qualifies for 10,000 sq of indoor cultivation, manufacturing, and distribution. Making this property perfect for vertical integration. Improvements include 6 barns and two residences. The main ranch house is a 3,500-square-foot, four-bedroom, two-bath mid-century home fully renovated ten years ago. A second 2,954-square-foot residence provides agricultural worker housing, with nine bedrooms and capacity for 28 people. The six barns support drying, storage, and processing. The largest F1-rated processing facility is equipped with a large trimming room, commercial men's and women's bathrooms, 4 showers, a break room, and laundry room.
This is a rare opportunity to acquire a property of state-park caliber beauty that also functions as a working ranch and an income-producing agricultural enterprise. With abundant water, infrastructure in place, and diverse agricultural potential from vineyards and grazing to equestrian, recreation, fishing, and hunting with abundant wildlife, the ranch offers both immediate productivity and long-term versatility. Owner financing is available with 35% down.
