Property Description

Schaad Ranch: A Century-Old Legacy of Peace, Privacy, and Possibility in the Sierra Nevadas Welcome to Schaad Ranch, a flawless, turn-key retreat blending historic legacy with modern, off-grid living. Held by the Schaad family since 1873, this remarkable 191.84-acre property rests at an ideal 3,000-foot elevation in the Sierra Nevada foothills, offering rare privacy, natural beauty, and self-sufficiencyperfectly suited for both private living and retreat use. Protected by forested ridges from valley heat, winter fog, and heavy mountain snow, the ranch enjoys a balanced, restorative climate. The architecturally designed contemporary home is impeccably maintained and thoughtfully crafted to invite the outdoors in. Expansive windows frame towering pines, firs, cedars, and heritage oaks, creating a seamless connection to the surrounding landscape. With no neighbors in sight, the setting is defined by silence, birdsong, and uninterrupted serenity. Miles of meandering trails lead through pristine, park-like forests to secluded swimming holes, shaded gathering areas, and level clearings ideal for guest cabins, additional homes, or wellness accommodations. Forest Creek, the Middle Fork of the Mokelumne River, and Boston Gulch flow through the property, offering year-round opportunities for reflection, meditation, and nature-based experiences beside moving water. With its scale, privacy, and calming environment, Schaad Ranch presents a compelling opportunity as a boutique wellness retreat or healing sanctuaryremote enough to feel worlds away, yet accessible to Northern California's major population centers. Recreation is abundant across this private wilderness, while thoughtful land stewardship under the California Forest Improvement Program (CFIP) and a Non-Industrial Timber Management Plan (NTMP) enhances fire resilience, preserves over 3 million board feet of marketable timber, and ensures long-term land health. Whether envisioned as a full-time sanctuary, generational legacy estate, or purpose-driven retreat, Schaad Ranch is more than a property it is a place of renewal, intention, and enduring possibility.
