$1,500,000

Located in the sought-after Garden Farms area near Santa Margarita, this farmhouse property offers the space, charm, and rural setting that make the Central Coast such a special place to live. Santa Margarita is one of San Luis Obispo County’s historic communities, with roots in the area’s early ranching heritage… Read More and a close connection to Santa Margarita Ranch, one of California’s oldest continuously operating cattle ranches. Originally planned as a small-farm community during Atascadero’s early development, Garden Farms still retains its peaceful country feel, open surroundings, and close-knit community character. Backing to Santa Margarita Ranch with access to private hiking and biking trails, this beautiful estate offers an exceptional blend of privacy, recreation, and convenience. Perfectly positioned in the heart of the Central Coast, you are just about 10 minutes from downtown San Luis Obispo for dining and nightlife, and a short drive to Paso Robles wine country, home to some of California’s most celebrated wineries. Served by its own private well rather than public water, the property offers added self-sufficiency and enhances the peaceful rural lifestyle that makes this setting so special. The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, accompanied by a detached 1-bedroom carriage home, all set on nearly an acre with a 8-year-old organic Blenheim apricot orchard that offers both beauty and potential income. A generous front porch invites you to slow down and enjoy summer evenings, morning sunrises, and the peaceful ranch setting all around you. The property also includes a fully remodeled cottage overlooking the orchard, creating flexibility for guests, extended family, rental income, or a private retreat. The iconic red barn adds even more charm and utility, with an oversized 2-car garage below and a beautifully recently updated upstairs office/loft space with a 3/4 bath above—ideal for working from home, creative use, or additional guest quarters. Recent improvements also include new driveway sealant, adding to the pride of ownership and move-in-ready appeal. Surrounded by the warmth of a true Central Coast ranch community, residents enjoy the charm of local traditions including newsletters, farmers markets, craft fairs, and more. This is a property that offers the freedom of country living while still keeping town, the beach, and everyday amenities close by. Don't wait...this is the property you have been waiting for..
