Scenic ranch for sale in California shows off ‘artistry of desert living.’ See it

An estate hidden in the California desert has landed on the real estate market for $1.395 million.

The scenic “Know Where Ranch,” which is named after a legendary Los Angeles bar, sits in Pioneertown. Owned by music producer Aric Christopher, the estate is “an extraordinary testament to the artistry of desert living,” listing agent Shaun Alan-Lee said in a news release.

“Know Where Ranch takes its name from the Know Where Bar, which is not just a bar but an iconic piece of Los Angeles history. The bar itself, meticulously recreated to match the original Hollywood one in both color and bar stools, exudes a true saloon vibe. This homage to the past infuses the property with an authentic and nostalgic charm that harkens back to the golden era of Hollywood and the allure of the Old West.”

The ranch, which vibrates with “rural charm,” the listing notes, comes with an abundance of features, including:

  • Skylight

  • Windows with wood framing

  • Rustic flair

  • Upgraded light fixtures

  • Marble countertops

  • Nature views

  • Outdoor casitas

  • Infinity pool

  • Gas fire pit

  • Functioning well

The primary house has four bedrooms and upgraded bathrooms. The artwork stands out in the ranch as well.

“Inside, custom murals and art adorn the walls, crafted by the talented hands of Penelope Misa and Ron The Killer,” Alan-Lee says, according to media materials.

“These bespoke artworks bring a unique and vibrant dimension to the property, celebrating the fusion of artistic expression with the desert’s rugged beauty. Know Where Ranch is more than a residence; it’s a living canvas where creativity and heritage converge, offering an unparalleled experience for those who appreciate the artistry of desert living.”

The listing is held by Alan-Lee of Carolwood Estates and Keith Markovitz and Clayton Baldwin at Compass.

Pioneertown is about 70 miles east of San Bernardino.
