Talmage CA Real Estate & Homes for Sale

Perched nearly 1,800 feet above Ukiah Valley on a rare geologic shelf, Eaglepoint Ranch spans 1,300+ acres of panoramic ridgelines, heritage vineyards, and historic California terrain. Once part of the storied Hildreth Ranch and home to Mendocinos first sheriff, "Doc" Standley, the ranch was revitalized in the 1970s by vintner John Scharffenberger, becoming a landmark of high-elevation viticulture.Today, its organically farmed vineyards produce premium Zinfandel, Petite Sirah, Syrah, Sangiovese, Cabernet Sauvignon, Counoise and more across 31 distinct vineyard blocks masterfully designed to preserve the environment while maximizing fruit quality. The estate includes licensed cannabis cultivation parcels, a 100-tree olive orchard, ample pastureland ideal for livestock. Water resources are abundant, sourced from multiple natural springs, a serene pond, and a deep and abundant well with pure clean water originating in the Sierras. Existing infrastructure encompasses barns, outbuildings, three stationary light-dep greenhouses, two residences, a modest ranch house and cozy cottage, and multiple estate-caliber homesites with breathtaking views of Ukiah Valley and the Mayacamas range.Adjacent to the 60,000-acre Cow Mountain Recreation Area offering over 120 miles of trails for hiking, horseback riding, ATV, and hunting, Eaglepoint Ranch provides exceptional privacy, recreation, and convenience, just minutes from downtown Ukiahs amenities, restaurants, schools, and municipal airport.
