Land for Sale in Fillmore, California

Peoples Company and The Dunbar Group are proud to present South Mountain Ranch, a well-developed lemon grove that is just entering its prime productive years. Benefitting from Ventura County's excellent coastal climate, productive soils, and strong water, the Property is poised to be a cornerstone lemon asset for the foreseeable future. The Ranch also includes plantable open land, frost protection, an ag preserve contract, and supporting improvements that make it an excellent plug-and-play asset.

The Property is a well-developed lemon grove that was planted in stages over three years. The trees are all currently bearing and are entering their prime productive years, with 38% in 7th leaf, 30% in 6th leaf, and 32% in 5th leaf.

The Property receives irrigation water from two owned groundwater wells. The on-site wells are located in close proximity to the Santa Clara River, which provides excellent recharge and leads to a shallow water level. These wells pump a combined 2,495 GPM and have reportedly been sufficient to fully irrigate the farmable acreage for decades. The Property is within the United Water Conservation District (UWCD), which helps the region manage its water resources. UCWD does not provide surface water in the Property's immediate area. Agricultural water charges are: UCWD at $192.34 per Acre-Foot; GSA at $13.00 per AF; and Fillmore & Piru Basin Pumpers Association at $0.40 per AF (or $35 total if less than 87.5 AF are pumped in the six month assessment period)
