About 18173 Rd 22
Welcome to Walking the Dog Ranch—an extraordinary 75+ acre working ranch where rustic heritage meets modern comfort. The heart of the property is a historic 1909 native stone farmhouse, thoughtfully remodeled into a 2,462 square foot, 3-bedroom, 2-bath home with two upper decks and one main level covered patio. Some added features include radiant in-floor heat throughout, Anderson windows, kitchen w/ granite counter tops and Viking cook stove, an efficient Yodel stove, built-in CENTRAL VAC system, steam shower & towel warmer bar in main bath, and solar panels to keep energy bills low. The 462-sf. guest home + 23' x 43'6" attached garage is nestled under beautiful shade trees. Beautiful landscaping, mature trees, and sweeping views surround the home, creating a peaceful and private homestead. The ranch is a dream for those seeking functionality and versatility. You'll find a 6-vehicle garage, plus an impressive collection of outbuildings designed to support a wide range of agricultural or recreational operations. A 60' x125' indoor arena is perfect for equestrian use or events, while a classic hay barn, silo, and a large tractor barn offer ideal storage for equipment and feed. The two-stall barn with turnouts, pole barn, feedlot, and automatic waterers ensure livestock are well cared for. For hunters or homesteaders, a walk-in cooler and dedicated meat cutting room provide unmatched convenience. The land is equally remarkable, with approximately 50 acres in hay production, 45 shares of MVI water from the Lone Pine lateral, a mature orchard, and a thriving vegetable garden. Adding to its uniqueness, the property even features on-site archeological ruins. Located just minutes from McPhee Reservoir, that offers easy access to boating, fishing, and endless outdoor recreation. Whether you're building a legacy, raising animals, growing food, or simply savoring wide open space, Walking the Dog Ranch has the water, infrastructure, and soul to bring your vision to life.
