80 acres in the Historic Livermore Valley. End of road privacy. 45 minutes from San Francisco. Zoned Commercial Agricultural (AG). THE LAND- Reinstein Ranch sweeps through the valley floor to the surrounding hills. The oak-studded terrain moves through open pasture, hillside, and canyon, producing the kind of topographic variety that flat valley parcels at this price point cannot offer. Three producing wells. 37,000 gallons of water storage on site. The agricultural history here is documented and specific. The wheat grown on this soil won a gold medal at the Paris World's Fair in 1900. The wheat fields are not currently planted. The land is resting. WHAT THIS LAND SUPPORTS- The equestrian infrastructure is built and operating. Four barns, a covered arena, a large outdoor arena, multiple round pens, and flat fenced pastures currently supporting 30 boarding horses. Capacity exists for up to 90— a function of the property's uninterrupted operation as a working ranch since the 1850s. No other parcel in the Livermore Valley carries this entitlement position. The canyon and spring just Northwest of the property supported a Prohibition-era distillery operation drawing from estate-grown wheat and natural spring water. That heritage produced Reinstein’s active federal TTB distillery license and the family’s whiskey legacy. Currently, eight barrels of aged wheat whiskey are resting, along with production equipment that transfers with the sale. THE STRUCTURES- The 1860 draft horse barn stands on its original footprint — 165 years in continuous use. The Ranch House, approximately 120 years old, is the principal residence. Multiple additional residential structures are currently tenanted. PROVENANCE- Established 1854. Continuously operated. One ownership transition. Reinstein Ranch has never been sold. Only passed.

Established in 1854 by J. West Martin, a Regent of the University of California, Reinstein Ranch is one of the oldest continuously operating ranches in Northern California. On 80 acres in the Historic Livermore Valley, 45 minutes from San Francisco, this is a property that took 170 years to become what it is today. The 1860 draft horse barn still stands on its original footprint. The wheat grown on this soil won a gold medal at the Paris World's Fair in 1900. The Reinstein family arrived in 1884 and carried the land for five generations, building an equestrian operation, a Prohibition-era distillery heritage, and an event venue within walls that have held gatherings since Abraham Lincoln was president. The land sweeps through the valley floor to the surrounding hills. The oak-studded terrain moves through open pasture, hillside, and canyon and boasts a natural spring that has never gone dry, providing abundant water for the ranch for 170 years. The Ranch House, approximately 120 years old, carries a wraparound porch, 12-foot ceilings, and the proportions of a home built by people who intended to be somewhere permanently. What the ranch carries today: 30 boarding horses across four barns, with infrastructure supporting up to 90. One of the oldest operating equestrian properties in the Livermore Valley — in continuous use since the 1850s. Multiple tenanted residential structures producing income from the first day of ownership. All structures are currently tenanted. The Ranch House is the principal residence and is not tenanted. Eight barrels of estate-grown wheat whiskey, aged seven years, a federally licensed distillery building with all distillery equipment. The production is currently dormant. However, the TTB distillery license is active and a transfer can be applied for. A 165-year-old event barn with an active history of private events, weddings, and film and music video production rentals.
