In the rolling hills of Tehama County, outside of Corning, CA where the horizon stretches endlessly and the air is filled with quiet promise, lies the 1,924-acre Bar 69 Ranch that embodies the spirit of the American West. This legacy property has been held by only its second owner since the original 1,519-acre ranch was established. This is more than just land, it’s a reminder of the freedom found in wide-open spaces and the limitless opportunities they hold.
At the heart of the ranch is a warm and inviting 2,400 sq. ft. main home featuring a spacious loft and traditional cellar that embodies the perfect blend of comfort and country charm. Nearby, two thoughtfully designed guest houses (a two-bedroom and a one-bedroom) offer private accommodations for family, friends, or visitors, while a 1BD/1BA labor home provides flexible housing for ranch hands. Whether you’re hosting weekend gatherings or fun family reunions, the expansive recreational room is a standout feature, complete with an 18-foot bar and attached kitchen. It’s the ideal setting for entertaining guests who can retreat to the nearby guest homes after a night of stories, music, and laughter under the open sky.
Beyond the living spaces, the ranch is a fully functional livestock operation with multiple barns, a well-equipped shop featuring large roll-up doors with 3-phase power, corrals, pens, squeeze, and loading chutes. The property is cross and perimeter fenced, supporting 235 cow/calf pairs year-round. Additional features like RV hookups with water, sewer, and electric, a two-car garage, and various outbuildings add even more flexibility.
The property’s water resources are extensive, consisting of eight year-round ponds, four seasonal ponds, two seasonal creeks, five irrigated pastures, an ag well, solar wells, domestic wells, and designated water rights. Outdoor recreational opportunities are endless on this wide, expansive ranch. Five of the year-round ponds are stocked with bass, providing great fishing opportunities. Hunters and those who appreciate the wildlife will find pigs, deer, boar, doves, and quail all on the property.
This is a ranch where tradition meets possibility, where the land provides, the views inspire, and the lifestyle is rich with meaning. Whether you’re continuing a ranching legacy or starting a new chapter, the Bar 69 Ranch offers the space, the infrastructure, and the freedom to make it your own.
