Property Description

Now available as a stand-alone offering, the Front Ranch at Circle K spans 204± acres of rich architectural history and large-scale infrastructure in the exclusive Happy Canyon AVA. Known originally as the Double Arch Ranch, this was the centerpiece of Ray and Joan Kroc's corporate retreat where innovation (including the famed Egg McMuffin) was born. At its heart stands a 17,000±-sq ft Main Lodge with 25 private en-suite rooms, a commercial-grade kitchen, grand dining hall, and hand-carved architectural detailing throughout. Adjacent lies the 5,200±-sq ft conference center—designed for 62-person seated events, lectures, or screenings—along with a separate library, theater, and ranch offices. Prominently standing over it all, the iconic 5,200±-sq ft Round House, offers 360° views, a resort-style pool, circular driveway, and unique architectural flair. Recreational offerings include a resort-style pool, two tennis courts, hiking trails, barbecue areas, and a private helipad. The grounds include additional residential housing, manicured oaks, and internal roads that connect structures across the property's natural topography. Qualifies under the Ag Enterprise Ordinance (AEO), allowing for future hospitality, farmstay, and food-service uses. Backed by an extraordinary provenance and lifestyle potential, the Front Ranch is a rare architectural and operational asset. Also available: the full 554± acre Circle K Ranch (7351 Happy Canyon Rd, Santa Ynez) at 24,750,000, and The Back Ranch (1959 Rambling Oaks, Santa Ynez CA - 349± acres) at 9,950,000.
