Set among the gently rolling hills of unincorporated Somis, this rare 37.76-acre ranch property offers a unique blend of natural beauty, agricultural opportunity, and country lifestyle. Framed by mature trees, open skies, and panoramic vistas, the property includes an avocado grove, a farmhouse/barndominium style residence, and endless possibilities for creating a truly special legacy estate.Formerly known as 'The Oasis Ranch', the property once operated as a respected horse breeding, training, showing, and trail-riding ranch. Its wide-open spaces, peaceful setting, and scenic terrain still reflect the character and charm of its equestrian roots. The original owners envisioned building their dream home on the ranch's spectacular upper plateau -- a breathtaking potential homesite positioned to capture sweeping views across the ranch, neighboring orchards, and the surrounding Ventura County countryside. Whether your vision includes a modern farmhouse, luxury ranch retreat, equestrian compound, or multi-generational family estate, the property provides an inspiring canvas for something truly exceptional.Ultimately, the owners chose to transform the original barn into the farmhouse/barndominium style residence that stands today. The home features a spacious great room, loft, office, guest room and utility room, offering comfortable living spaces while leaving room for updates, expansion, or reimagination. The property presents a true blank canvas for renovation or redevelopment tailored to your own vision and lifestyle.For buyers seeking flexibility, the opportunities here are extensive. Continue operating the avocado grove while designing a private country retreat. Restore the residence back to its original barn use and build a new custom home on the upper plateau. Create an equestrian property with room for horses, barns, arenas, and riding trails. Establish a boutique agricultural venture, family compound, weekend retreat, event venue or long-term investment property in one of Ventura County's most desirable rural communities.Adding to the property's appeal are two separate entrances off Balcom Canyon Road, providing convenience and versatility for agricultural operations, guests, recreational vehicles, or future expansion. With no HOA restrictions, owners have the freedom to fully embrace authentic country living while still enjoying close proximity to Camarillo, Moorpark, Ojai and coastal Ventura.
