Exceptional 40± Acre Agricultural Opportunity in Lake County – Turnkey Hemp Operation or Private Ranch Potential Rarely does a property like this become available. Spanning approximately 40 acres, this former fernery—now operating as a licensed hemp production facility—offers a unique blend of established infrastructure, income potential, and future versatility. The property is fully equipped for agricultural use with multiple wells, high-capacity diesel-powered irrigation systems (4”, 8”, and 10” lines), and extensive greenhouse/shade structures that can be utilized for continued cultivation or removed to create a blank slate for alternative uses. At the center of the operation is an updated warehouse featuring new A/C, two walk-in coolers, and ongoing build-out of a commercial-grade kitchen, storage areas, and large submerged tanks—providing flexibility for processing, storage, or expansion of operations. Additional improvements include barns, equipment storage, office space, and multiple outbuildings to support a wide range of agricultural or business needs. Beyond its functionality, the property offers a beautiful natural setting with open pasture, scattered oak trees, a small pond, and abundant wildlife—creating an ideal backdrop for a private estate, ranch, or multi-use agricultural venture. Residential features include a ~2,300 sq ft home with an inground pool (ready for updates to make it your own), as well as a secondary mobile home with a newer roof. Infrastructure upgrades include a new well pump, updated interior lighting, flooring, and paint in the main home, along with recently serviced and certified septic systems. Tucked away just 1/4 mile off a county road on a quiet dead-end street, the gated entrance ensures privacy while still maintaining convenient access. Whether you’re looking to continue hemp production, revive the nursery operation, diversify agricultural use, or create a private compound—this property offers unmatched flexibility and opportunity. Endless possibilities with infrastructure already in place.
