Set across approximately 26.87 acres in Lebec, 1588 Ridge Route Drive offers a rare combination of acreage, accessibility, existing infrastructure, and mountain views. A gated entrance leads into the property, where an established network of dirt roads provides access through different portions of the land. The lower areas include flatter, more usable terrain, while elevated portions of the property open to expansive views across the surrounding mountains and countryside. The varied topography creates opportunities for recreation, ranch use, a future mountain retreat, or other uses tailored to the land, subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and buyer investigation. The property is served by Lebec County Water District with a separate water meter, and water lines have been installed through portions of the acreage. Electrical poles are also located on the property, providing additional utility infrastructure for a future owner to investigate and utilize as appropriate. Located just minutes from Lebec and Interstate 5, the property offers a sense of privacy and separation without the extended access often associated with larger rural parcels. With nearly 27 acres, gated access, internal roads, district water, on-site electrical poles, usable terrain, and elevated views, this is an opportunity to create something uniquely suited to the land.
Great opportunity to own 26 beautiful acres adjacent to Fort Tejons land and the legendary monument of the old Lebec Hotel site. Water, power, and phone lines are right on the property readily available and waiting for you to hook and build your dream home. Fwy close and excellent views for miles in every direction or choose the shady side with the oak trees for true privacy and views.
