An Extraordinary Setting for a Legacy Sporting Estate -- Where Land, Lifestyle & Tradition Endure. Discover the uncommon beauty of Mill Race Farm, where expansive acreage, preserved landscapes, and Aiken's celebrated sporting traditions come together to offer an authentic peaceful lifestyle. This exceptional 25+ acre property presents a rare opportunity to create a legacy sporting estate, equestrian retreat, or multigenerational family compound in a community where privacy, conservation, and a shared appreciation for the land are deeply valued. Once a prominent foxhunting fixture and hunter/jumper training facility, Mill Race Farm has evolved into a collection of attractive horse farms and fine country estates. Owners enjoy access to miles of established riding trails, boarding facilities, and expansive open spaces--a distinctive setting where the freedom of country living meets a genuine sense of community. At 138 Ranchero Road, the land itself is the luxury. A remarkable homesite overlooks three spring-fed ponds, including two of which are private ponds and all stocked with bass--an increasingly rare amenity. Imagine mornings casting a line, afternoons exploring wooded trails on horseback, and evenings gathered with family and friends as the sunset reflects across the water. Here, nature sets the pace for a more intentional way of life. Much of the groundwork for a future estate is already in place. A cleared homesite, with house plans available, invites the creation of a custom residence. Approximately seven acres of recently cleared land offer potential for pastures, paddocks, or a private riding arena. Trails wind through the wooded acreage and connect directly to Mill Race Farm's extensive trail network. Overlooking a tranquil pond, the handsome 540-square-foot pavilion is designed for effortless outdoor entertaining, with custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and a stone fireplace. An adjoining 300-square-foot composite deck provides an inviting setting for leisurely meals, intimate gatherings, and memorable weekends at the farm. Recent improvements include a newly installed septic tank and a completed powder room, enhancing the comfort and functionality of this exceptional outdoor retreat. Beyond the property, more than 200 acres bordering the Edisto River are protected under a conservation easement and incorporated into the community's existing and future trail system. This commitment to conservation helps preserve the natural character that makes Mill Race Farm so exceptional. Deer, wild turkey, fox, ducks, eagles, and native birdlife enrich the landscape, offering endless enjoyment for equestrians, anglers, conservationists, and outdoor enthusiasts alike. Remarkably private yet conveniently connected, Mill Race Farm is approximately 15 minutes from Historic Downtown Aiken, with its boutiques, dining, and cultural attractions. Shopping, medical facilities, and Interstate 20 are readily accessible, while Aiken's polo, eventing, schooling, and foxhunting venues are a short haul away. For the discerning buyer seeking more than simply acreage, 138 Ranchero Road offers the foundation for something truly personal and enduring. A place to establish roots, celebrate sporting traditions, create lasting memories, and build a legacy for generations to come. Discover Mill Race Farm--where the beauty of the land, the spirit of community, and the timeless traditions of Aiken's sporting life come together in extraordinary fashion.
