This property consists of 44 legal fee-simple absolute lots strategically located at the corner of CA State Route 166 & Bell Drive in New Cuyama, California. The subdivision was established decades ago, with minimal development to date (only two homes constructed), allowing for a clean slate approach to development. The property occupies a prime corner position just 1/3 mile west of the Cuyama Buckhorn Resort with easy access from Highway 101 via a one-hour scenic drive on CA State Route 166 when traveling from Santa Maria.
Development readiness is a key advantage of this property, with building permits almost secured and municipal water and sewer lines already stubbed at the property corner on Highway 166. The subdivision is only a 5-minute drive to New Cuyama Airport, adding to its accessibility and convenience.
New Cuyama offers a stunning high desert environment featuring sweeping panoramic views of 7,500 acres of wine grape vineyards and dramatic mountain ranges visible in all directions. The property is strategically located between California's Central Coast and Central Valley within Santa Barbara County.
The Cuyama Valley spans approximately 300 square miles and is completely encircled by mountain ranges including the Sierra Madre Mountains to the south and west, La Panza Range to the north, Caliente Range to the northeast, and San Emigdio Mountains to the east. The Cuyama River originates near Pine Mountain Summit and flows through the valley, which reaches its widest point near the junction of Routes 166 and 33.
New Cuyama has a rich history tied to the region's oil boom, with the nearby Cuyama Buckhorn designed in 1952 by renowned architect George Vernon Russell who was also famous for Las Vegas' Flamingo hotel. During the area's development, New Cuyama was marketed as the "Hidden Valley of Enchantment" to attract workers and their families.
This subdivision represents a rare opportunity to develop in an area with established infrastructure, stunning natural beauty, and growing interest as both a destination and residential community.
Please note: 6.094 acres/265,300 sq feet is the total size of all 44 lots, not including public Right of Ways
