The irrigated grounds are home to an impressive variety of trees, avocado, orange, lemon, peach, willow, pepper, sycamore, oak, boxwood, maple, strawberry, and redwood. In 2019, 240 evergreen trees were added to further enhance the lush landscape. With 6,000 linear feet of secure black vinyl chain-link fencing and double gates, Lucky Ranch ensures unparalleled privacy and peace of mind. A Kohler propane generator stands ready to power the entire estate, while additional outbuildings including a maintenance structure and a kennel that can be repurposed as a barn provide flexible spaces for hobbies or expansion.
