The story
Horse people, you know there's a big difference between a property that allows horses and one that was actually built for them. 23514 Patino Road was set up for professional rodeo, and it shows. Set on 11.07 acres, this is a serious equestrian property with an 80x110 covered arena with lights and water, plus a massive 120x280 outdoor roping and barrel arena with automatic chute, boxes, catch pen and return alley. The 9-stall raised center-aisle Castlebrook barn includes an enclosed tack room, matted stalls and paddocks, and is surrounded by four fenced pastures. Add a hay barn, goat pen, 3-bay workshop with water and power, plenty of room for trailers and equipment, and you have the infrastructure to actually ride, train and keep your horses at home. And then there's the water. 3 miners inches of NID, gravity-flow irrigation, two ponds, a creek and a strong-producing well keep this 11-acre property feeling more like a green oasis than a typical California horse ranch. But what makes this property so special is that you don't have to choose between the horse property you've always wanted and the home you actually want to live in. The remodeled 3-bedroom, 3-bath, 3,456-square-foot home is warm, open and full of character, with gorgeous slate floors, beautiful woodwork, a generous kitchen and main-level primary suite with an enormous walk-in closet. Downstairs, two additional bedrooms are tucked away from the main living spaces alongside a spacious family room, creating a wonderful sense of privacy. French doors connect the home to a wraparound deck and covered patio overlooking the ponds, pastures and property beyond. And it's been operating as a fully functional AirBnb, consistently bringing in $60k-$80k every year. There's even a separate artist studio, oversized finished garage with 220 and space to relax around the fire pit after a day of riding. Plus, since you're out of the trees and surrounded by rolling meadows, fire danger is lessened. Train at home. Ride when you want. Keep your horses where you can see them. Because for the right horse person, we know that's the definition of luxury. 15 minutes from downtown Penn Valley, 20 to Grass Valley, and just an hour to the airport.
