Smith Valley Riverfront Ranch

There are very few properties in Nevada that have the qualities this unique 88 acre ranch has, especially in a location close to Carson City, Lake Tahoe, and Reno.   One mile of the West Walker River borders this 88 acre ranch. The property is the former headquarters of the historic Glenn Fulstone Ranch. Located one mile north of Hwy 208, just off of Lower Colony Road, the property is 30 miles from Gardnerville and Yerington, 45 miles from Carson City and South Lake Tahoe, and 85 miles from Reno.   River frontage a mile long is lined with groves of large mature cottonwood trees with most of the other side of the property consisting of a bluff, assuring riverfront privacy. Approximately 20 acres has been in alfalfa and meadow flood irrigated from the Walker River Irrigation District.   Wildlife on the ranch includes deer, fox, beaver, quail, wild turkey, doves, ducks and geese. The river provides excellent fishing for Rainbow and Brown trout.   Improvements include a 1940s ranch home, approximately 1,560 sq ft, 3 bedrooms, 1.5 baths with all the charm you could imagine in an old western ranch home. Other outbuildings include a garage/shop, poultry outbuilding, corrals, and the ranch is fenced and cross-fenced.   When you drive down the winding high-banked driveway to the ranch headquarters it’s like entering a western movie scene with the old ranch home, corrals and outbuildings, the river on one side the bluff on the other and huge Cottonwood trees in between. It gives you the feeling of being on a much larger ranch.   There are many highest and best uses for this rare Nevada riverfront property including a horse ranch, small livestock operation, fishing retreat, second home ranch get-a-way, retirement ranch, or farming. It is the perfect place for your dream riverfront residence.   This historic ranch is offered for sale at $1,500,000 For complete offering package call Pete Nevin, 775-829-2122
