Description
Welcome to hay country in beautiful Lassen County. This turn-key operation spans three parcels across two nearby ranches and is built for productivity and peace of mind. The headquarters property covers approximately 140 acres and features a charming 3-bedroom, 2-bath ranch-style home (updated in 2009), a 2,400 sq ft shop with an 800 sq ft apartment, a detached 2-car garage. Irrigation is first-rate, with an ag well producing approx. 1,100 GPM, 40 water shares from the Lassen Irrigation District, two linear pivots (one GPS-equipped and installed in 2025), and two wheel lines. You’ll find two hay barns — one measuring 4,400 sq ft and holding up to 300 tons, plus a second barn built in 2019 with room for over 170 tons.
Just a few miles down the road lies the second ranch: 100 acres total, with about 85 acres currently in production. It’s fully fenced and irrigated by a powerful ag well (drilled in 2018 with a 75 HP pump producing up to 1,300 GPM), two remote-controlled pivots, and a wheel line. This ranch typically produces 4 cuttings per season, averaging around 6 tons per acre.
The land is mostly fenced, and 100 acres are enrolled in the Williamson Act for potential tax savings. A full lineup of haying equipment is available by private sale but not included in the listing price.If you’re looking for clean, productive ground with great water, well-kept improvements and the kind of wide open views only Northern California can offer, this operation deserves a close look!
