RICH GULCH RANCH - Discover an 230-acre working ranch in historic Mokelumne Hill, Calaveras County, offering usable acreage, infrastructure, abundant water, multiple building sites, and Gold Rush history. Set along State Highway 26 in the Sierra Nevada foothills, the property comprises four separate legal parcels with multiple fenced grazing pastures, three access points, ranch roads, animal shelters, existing building pads, and elevated sites with potential 360-degree views. The land supports cattle, livestock, horses, farming, recreation, or a family ranch; the current owners raise cattle and Boer goats. Most of the ranch is fully fenced with 3-inch cemented metal posts and goat wire. Water includes Calaveras Public Utility District service, a private well near the residence with a pump replaced in 2023, a seasonal creek, and several year-round springs, two captured by a historic spring catchment box. Improvements include an approximately 1,600-square-foot manufactured home built in 1976, maintained on an engineered, certified permanent foundation, plus two 1,800-square-foot steel workshops totaling about 3,600 square feet. One is equipped as a ranch and automotive shop with a hydraulic in-ground lift, metal shelving, an office, and doors at both ends. The other includes about 1,200 square feet of finished office space and ranch supply and storage areas. A rough cattle corral and new squeeze chute support a cattle or livestock operation. In historic Rich Gulch near Mokelumne Hill, the property lies within a Gold Rush-era mining district with underground mine workings and placer activity dating to the 1800s, offering land where early miners pursued gold-bearing quartz and placer deposits. Existing roads, utilities, several pads, and separate access points allow additional residences or ranch facilities, subject to county approvals and buyer investigation. A lower Highway 26 driveway serves a separate parcel where a homestead was lost in the 2015 fire. Two pads remain for rebuilding, with PG&E service and a county school-fee credit for the first 1,000 square feet of a future residential rebuild. The four-parcel layout may also support parcel-line adjustments or two or three distinct ranch properties, subject to regulations and approvals. Elevations range from roughly 1,700 to 2,100 feet, with the residence near 1,900 feet, creating a mild foothill climate with occasional light snow. Near Stockton, and Sacramento
