Welcome to the Brush Creek Ranch. Steeped in history, the ranch harkens back to a time when glass doorknobs, iceboxes and clawfoot tubs were the modern touches of the time and there were no strangers to hard work and determination. With approximately .4+- miles of Brush Creek frontage and sprawling across more than 120+- acres of lush pasture and rolling coastal plateaus, the property offers a natural experience like no other. The quaint 1 bedroom, 1 bath Ranch Cottage Home offers the opportunity to reside while you build your dream home on the grassy knobs overlooking Manchester and the Point Arena Light House. Brush Creek Ranch was settled in the 1840's and served as the site for a one-room school house built for the owners daughter and local children. As progress marched forward, much of the ranch was converted from timber production to grazing and grain production in the 1800's. In the 1900's it was the home of a Grade B Dairy and timberlands. The 2000's gave way to its use as a horse farm and private wildlife preserve. The home orchard contains several apple trees brought to the area by Luther Burbank and hosts a rare specimen of red peach. While time has marched on, nothing has been forgotten. This is truly a historical property like no other.
