Constructed by Gene Suiter, whose lineage includes championship horse cutter Joe Suiter, the iconic red barn at the ranch's base is paired with a large cutting arena -- graded and awaiting updated footing. A third arena near the modular residence has been innovatively transformed into a contemporary camping site beneath the stars, complete with spacious eco-tent yurts.With its coveted AG-II zoning on +/- 19.26 acres, the ranch offers immense potential, including vineyard development within the Ballard Canyon AVA.
