If you're looking for a well-priced horse property that's gated, has a custom ranch home, and all the horse amenities, with no HOAs, and not too far from the studios and downtown L.A., here it is!
This spacious four bedroom, four bath rancher offers 3,972 square feet of living space on three acres that are 90% flat. It has central heat and air, as well as ceiling fans.
The big country kitchen has tile counters and floors, stainless steel appliances, a large breakfast nook and a walk-in pantry.
Just off the kitchen is an office area and a bedroom and bath.
The living room is huge - big enough to seat 50 people for a bridal shower. It features wood floors, vaulted ceilings, a brick fireplace and lots of windows. At the far end just off the kitchen is a formal dining area with a raised floor.
The kitchen opens to an enormous family room with a fireplace and built-in shelves.
The bedroom wing features a large master suite with a cozy fireplace, two walk-in closets, a sauna, and a master bath with jacuzzi tub, plus two big bedrooms with a jack & jill bath between them.
There's a fourth bathroom off the living room.
The master bedroom opens to a lovely patio courtyard overlooking a very big back yard that has plenty of room for a pool; in fact, there are two great pool locations adjacent to the house.
The extra long driveway ends in a two car garage and a carport big enough for four cars. In addition there's plenty of paved parking space for an RV, boats, horse trailer, etc.
There's also a huge, fenced dog run on one side of the house.
The property has a septic field.
The metal barn has a 16' breezeway with decomposed granite footing, eight 12'x16' box stalls with good-size runs attached, a large, paneled tackroom, and two washracks with hot and cold running water.
The stalls are plumbed for automatic waterers and there are two convenient feed storage bins in the aisle way. The barn has 10 fluorescent fixtures overhead so there's plenty of light. There's also an automatic fly spray system and a close circuit television for foaling.
There is another large pipe corral adjacent to the barn, plus a lighted round-pen and two hay storage structures.
The 200' x 80' sand arena has lights and there's room to expand it even more to where you could have a full-size dressage arena and another area for jumps.
Across the street are trails leading into a national forest where if you want to, you can ride to Acton.
This is a proven great place for families, kids and animals to thrive and grow. Move here and enjoy life in the close-in country.
And oh yes, every day at 4:00 there's a lovely breeze.

JUST HOW BIG AN INVESTMENT IS BUYING A HOME?
Buying a home is the single biggest investment most of us will ever make in our lifetime. In order to profit from our investment later down the road
when we decide to sell, we have to obtain the greatest value for our money when we buy.
As a professional, full-service Realtor™, I'm very serious about my responsibility to protect, support, inform and advise you in your real estate
transaction.
You, the Buyer, need to have your own Realtor just like the Seller has his own. The job of the Seller's agent is to obtain the
highest price possible for his client. The job of the Buyer's agent is to obtain the lowest price possible for his client. This is how a free market
system functions.
Having a Realtor whose deep sense of ethics is coupled with confidence, wisdom, and strong negotiating skills, is vital to your financial interests and
success every time you buy or sell real estate.
In California, our ever-expanding Purchase Agreement is currently 32 pages long, and it’s chock full of disclosures, terms, clauses and other
complexities that can affect your future life in your new home. I know you want to have full confidence in your Realtor when you sign this document,
and I believe I have the real estate knowledge and experience to inspire that confidence.
You also want inside knowledge on the true and current market value of the property you’re interested in. Is it overpriced for the market? A bargain
you should jump on? Or somewhere in between. Your professional full-service Realtor will help inform your decision, and even save you from
yourself, should you find a house where your heart says yes, but your brain says no.
As your professional RE/MAX Realtor I’m here to support, inform and advise
you, from first meeting, to close of escrow, to the client-friend relationship that extends afterwards. This includes viewing homes, arranging
financing, writing offers and counteroffers, negotiating repairs, securing the best terms and conditions, ordering inspections and attending them with
you, and tracking all contingencies to make sure they’re released on schedule in accordance with the purchase agreement (contract). By the time we
close escrow, you’ll be a confident, educated home buyer.

NEED TO FIND A HOME FAST?
Contact me With This Form and tell
me what you want to search on (bedrooms, baths, square footage, yard size, pool/no pool, cities, school district, price range,etc.). My home finder
service, MLStrac will email you every time a property matching your search critera is
entered or updated in the MLS. Look them over and see if any of them talk to you. You can call me day or night at 800.498.6707 to ask
questions, arrange to see them, or discuss financing.
IF YOU'D LIKE ME TO HELP YOU
If after spending time reading my web site and receiving my listings, you decide you may want to work with me when you purchase a home, please be aware
of the following:
1. If you visit an Open House without me, when the Seller’s agent approaches you in hopes of acquiring you as a client, give him or her my
business card (I'll make sure you have some), and just tell them you're working with Doug Ranger, and they'll leave you alone.
2. However, if you visit a New Subdivision without me, the Builder's on-premise real estate agent will show you the homes, and if decide to
purchase one, you have no choice but to go through the Builder's agent because he was the first one to show you the home, and thus was the procuring
agent. This isn't the same thing as having your own agent to represent you, and you aren't entitled to the same level of fiduciary responsibility that
the sales agent owes the Builder, who is paying him two commissions. Most of them are only licensed real estate agents, and not members of the
National Association of Realtors; therefore, they are NOT Realtors (TM), and they do not subscribe to the strict code of ethics that a Realtor(TM)
adheres to. Remember, you’re the Buyer. Your needs are different. You need to be represented by your own Realtor (not just a real estate agent) who
is sworn to loyalty and confidentiality.
I can and will show you any home in any area, including homes with For Sale By Owner yard signs (unrepresented sellers), For Sale With
Owner yard signs (limited service providers), and competing broker yard signs (Prudential, Century 21, etc.).
ATTENTION HOME SELLERS
Today, eight in ten home buyers use the Internet to acquire information about homes they want to see, which is why I invested an enormous amount of
time, money and psychic energy to obtain the latest real estate technology tools and software. I have to have these to effectively market your home
locally, nationally, and internationally. Yes, we market literally worldwide, because we never know where your buyer is going to come
from. Today, a full 90% of my business is conducted with buyers and sellers who reached me online.
In additional to technical and Internet marketing skills, I have 20+ years’ experience as a licensed electrical contractor. I know a lot about homes
and home improvement and remodeling. I can counsel Buyers to help them understand structural design, visualize the potential of your home to suit
their purpose, and refer them to excellent, affordable contractors and trades people.
I’m a creative and competitive Seller’s agent with a marketing strategy for your property, which I can share with you during a brief consultation in
your home. I’ll prepare a customized market analysis of your home, and we’ll talk about how to position it in the current market of competing homes.
Speaking of CMAs, I caution you that relying on CMAs offered by third-party Internet vendors could result in a wrong or untimely financial decision,
and here’s why. They’re often not licensed real estate agents, and their data is often not current. They haven’t seen your home or the homes
they’re comparing it with and cannot factor in the nuances and intangibles that increase or decrease property values.
My marketing presentation is free and there’s no obligation. Call me at 800.498.6707, or email me at Doug@DougRanger.com. The motto of The Ranger Team is, “Other Realtors sell more homes; we sell homes for
more.”
HERE'S SOMETHING SPECIAL IF YOU WANT TO DO-IT-YOURSELF
Many of you are independent Internet-savvy consumers who enjoy searching for homes on your own using various third-party listing companies, such as
Home Gain and other agencies, that intercept our listings and use them to capture your name and email address. Then they turn around and
demand a 30% commission to sell us back our own listings. Eliminate the middle-man and receive only ACTIVE listings using my free user ID
and password. You'll search the same MLS that real estate agents use - live and in real-time, 24/7, at home and at your convenience. Talk to me
at 800.498.6707, or email me at Doug@DougRanger.com and mention that you want to be connected to
CrisNetHomes.com. It only takes a minute or two and there’s no pressure or obligation.
WHICH HOME SEARCH IS BEST FOR YOU?
We belong to five different local MLS’s (some of them overlap). Which one is best for you? I can help you search any or all of them and receive the
listings by email. Click Here and fill in your search criteria. It'll come
straight to me to be set up. It's helpful if you can leave a contact phone number in case I have a specific question or comment about your search.
You’ll start receiving active listings almost immediately. Cal me at 800.498.6707 when you want to see any of them.
Thanks for visiting My Featured Homes, and thanks for letting the Ranger Team be of service.
Doug Ranger
