Two agricultural parcels totaling approximately over 95 acres with prominent freeway exposure and strong eligibility for USDA-related agricultural and conservation programs along I5 and access from State Route 33, split by Canyon Road. Two contiguous but legally separate agricultural parcels are positioned on opposite sides of Canyon Road, which bisects the holding. The primary parcel is just over 90 acres and offers more than 1,900 feet of freeway frontage, providing exceptional visibility for agricultural operations, future ag-support uses, or conservation-oriented projects. The second parcel is approximately 2 acres, also with freeway exposure, ideal for complementary uses such as an access point, small-scale ancillary structures, or signage, subject to county regulations. Access and location Although both parcels front the freeway, there is no direct freeway access or interchange at Canyon Road. Access is currently obtained by exiting at Highway 33, traveling east, and following local directions to Canyon Road and the subject properties. Canyon Road physically divides the 90 acre and 2 acre parcels, allowing separate functional use while preserving a cohesive overall site identity. The properties are zoned agricultural under the county's land use framework, intended to support viable long term agricultural use and very low density related development. County prezoning and general plan policies emphasize preservation of agricultural character, compliance with soil and water conservation standards, and compatibility with surrounding rural lands. Prospective buyers should review county prezoning conditions, permitted uses, and any agricultural preserve or Williamson Act-type overlays that may apply prior to entitlement changes or intensification of use. Given its size, configuration, and agricultural designation, the 90 acre parcel is a strong candidate for USDA conservation and farmland protection programs that incentivize keeping land in productive agriculture or natural cover. Programs such as the Agricultural Conservation Easement Program (ACEP) and the Conservation Reserve Program (CRP) can provide financial benefits for conserving agricultural land, improving habitat, and implementing resource‑conserving practices. County‑required agricultural land and farmland protection policies can dovetail with these USDA initiatives, making this holding especially attractive for owners( see attached )...
