San Roman Land at 6401 Camino Tassajara is an opportunity to purchase a combined 1,432 acres of prime agricultural preserve land and own a sizable ranch in the eastern Contra Costa County foothills. The property consists of three parcels. Two parcels, APN 205-060-004 (308 acres) and 205-060-009 (287.32 acres), are at the southern end of the offering, and one parcel, APN 205-050-007 (837.77 acres), is at the northern end.
The two parcels, ending in 004 and 009, named Moller Ranch, are located at the southern end of the property. These parcels span a total of 595 acres and are encumbered by a conservation easement covering 532 acres. The uses for these lots is limited by a Habitat Mitigation and Management Plan (HMMP) restricting use on 532.3 acres of the property, which preserves the land for wildlife habitat and future development. The entire 1,432-acre property is encumbered by a grazing easement, meaning the site will always have a dedicated grazing and vegetation management solution handled by an expert who knows the land well.
While the southern portion of the property’s usage is restricted beyond the two development sites, the northern parcels ending in 007 are permitted for various types of agricultural use according to the county zoning code. This 837-acre lot consists entirely of rangeland and is used as winter pasture for a larger cow-calf operation.
According to an older appraisal report, there are four interior fields that the cattle are rotated between for flash grazing. Elevations range between 620 and 1,100 feet above sea level. There are no buildings on the 837 acres. Site improvements include extensive fencing throughout and corrals in the southwest corner of the property. There are also numerous water storage tanks and watering troughs. All ranch improvements were completed by the previous owner. The fencing and corrals are assumed to be in good condition per prior appraisal. The 837-acre subject parcel is zoned A-80 in Contra Costa County and enrolled within the Williamson Act.
All three parcels are zoned A-80 for Exclusive Agricultural District per the county of Contra Costa. The general plan has the following designations for each parcel: 004 or 308.03 acres has a General Plan of RC-Resource Conservation, 009 or 287.32 acres has a General Plan of RC-Resource Conservation, 007 or 837.77 acres has a General Plan of RC-Resource Conservation, and AL-Agriculture Land. According to the Contra Costa County Zoning Department, the surrounding zoning that borders Dublin is A-80 and A-20. All three parcels are in the Williamson Act, which reduces property taxes.
San Ramon Land is accessed from the south via an entrance at parcel 004. The adjacent parcel (009) has a 2.0-acre level homesite with beautiful valley views. A future 2.2-acre homesite or other agricultural development site at the southeastern portion of the ranch is presently a horse arena (please note these adjacent building improvements are not part of the offering). There are three or four wells on the lower portion of the property, each with a 5-gallon-per-minute capacity, and two springs and a well on the northern portion of the property.
The property boundaries are a little over a half-mile east of San Ramon, and the main entrance sits at the northern boundary of Dublin. The land's entrance is approximately 4.5 miles north of the Dublin/Pleasanton BART station. San Roman Land is 3.5 miles north of the Hacienda Crossings Shopping Center and the Fallon Shopping Center. San Roman Land is a chance at prime country living with nearby suburban amenities and linkages.
