EXECUTIVE SUMMARY

This property consists of 44 legal fee-simple absolute lots strategically located at the corner of CA State Route 166 & Bell Drive in New Cuyama, California. The subdivision was established decades ago, with minimal development to date (only two homes constructed), allowing for a clean slate approach to development. The property occupies a prime corner position just 1/3 mile west of the Cuyama Buckhorn Resort with easy access from Highway 101 via a one-hour scenic drive on CA State Route 166 when traveling from Santa Maria. Development readiness is a key advantage of this property, with building permits almost secured and municipal water and sewer lines already stubbed at the property corner on Highway 166. The subdivision is only a 5-minute drive to New Cuyama Airport, adding to its accessibility and convenience. New Cuyama offers a stunning high desert environment featuring sweeping panoramic views of 7,500 acres of wine grape vineyards and dramatic mountain ranges visible in all directions. The property is strategically located between California's Central Coast and Central Valley within Santa Barbara County. The Cuyama Valley spans approximately 300 square miles and is completely encircled by mountain ranges including the Sierra Madre Mountains to the south and west, La Panza Range to the north, Caliente Range to the northeast, and San Emigdio Mountains to the east. The Cuyama River originates near Pine Mountain Summit and flows through the valley, which reaches its widest point near the junction of Routes 166 and 33. New Cuyama has a rich history tied to the region's oil boom, with the nearby Cuyama Buckhorn designed in 1952 by renowned architect George Vernon Russell who was also famous for Las Vegas' Flamingo hotel. During the area's development, New Cuyama was marketed as the "Hidden Valley of Enchantment" to attract workers and their families. This subdivision represents a rare opportunity to develop in an area with established infrastructure, stunning natural beauty, and growing interest as both a destination and residential community. Please note: 6.094 acres/265,300 sq feet is the total size of all 44 lots, not including public Right of Ways

DESCRIPTION

This property consists of 44 legal fee-simple absolute lots. The property was subdivided decades ago with only two homes constructed. The location is on the corner of CA State Route 166 & Bell Drive, situated 1/3 mile west of the Cuyama Buckhorn Resort. New Cuyama is a gorgeous high desert spot with truly spectacular, sweeping views of 7,500 acres of wine grapes and mountain ranges on all sides. A leisurely one-hour drive from Hwy 101 on CA State Route 166 takes you to Bell Drive, about one-third mile before the town of New Cuyama. The property is a 5-minute drive to the New Cuyama Airport. The forty-four available lots range in size from 6,000 to 7,200 Sq.Ft. and above. The asking price of $750,000 calculates to $17,045 per lot. The property situated in Cuyama Valley, which is between the Central Coast and the Central Valley. Building permits are almost in hand, and the sewer line and municipal water are stubbed at the corner of the property on Hwy 166. We are close to being shovel ready. Designed in 1952 by George Vernon Russell, the architect behind Las Vegas’ Flamingo hotel, the Buckhorn motel, restaurant and saloon, just five minutes from the property, served as a social and community hub in Cuyama for decades. During the oil boom heyday, when the town of New Cuyama was built and marketed as the “Hidden Valley of Enchantment” to entice workers and their families, ARCO executives flown in to inspect the fields would later carouse until the small hours back at the saloon. New Cuyama Valley encompasses an area of approximately 300 square miles (780 km2). It is bounded on all sides by mountains: the Sierra Madre Mountains along the south and west, La Panza Range on the north, and Caliente Range along the northeast - all of the California Coast Ranges System; and the San Emigdio Mountains on the east. New Cuyama is in Santa Barbara County. The headwaters of the Cuyama River are just north of Pine Mountain Summit on State Route 33. The valley widens from the river's entry to a maximum width near the highway junction of Routes 166 and 33, near the corner of the four counties. Then it narrows again as the river flows west out of the valley through a narrow canyon between the Sierra Madre and La Panza ranges, to the Santa Maria Valley and its river mouth on the Pacific Ocean. Cuyama Buckhorn is nestled within The Hidden Valley of Enchantment, a peaceful oasis, which sits in the middle of 4 counties just on the other side of Los Padres National Forest from Santa Barbara. We offer an intimate getaway filled with thoughtfully crafted meals, a bar where conversation flows effortlessly and revitalized rooms with stylistic nods to the past. Our valley rests between star-filled night skies, for some of the best stargazing in California and pastoral golden mountains boasting hiking trails and breathtaking wildflowers. The joy of shared experiences and creative spirit at Cuyama Buckhorn creates a connection to the natural beauty of Cuyama Valley.
