John Wayne's onetime ranch is selling for $8 million. Is a pot farm in its future?
John Waynes onetime 2,000-acre ranch in Riverside County is for sale, and among the possible uses, the marketing pitch says, is a place to grow marijuana.
Other scenarios posed include vineyards, horses, cattle, shooting, hunting, a private retreat or a sports camp. But one cant overlook this suggestion: possible cannabis cultivation.
Rancho Pavoreal is located in Sage, a small agricultural community 10 minutes away from Temecula wine country, as real estate agent Tatiana Novick of Coldwell Banker, who represents the ranch, describes it in her listing. A riot of mesas and meadows laced with gurgling streams. Miles of chaparral and clusters of stately oaks. A mountain that American Indian considered a deity. Herds of deer, golden eagles overhead, enough wildlife to stock a zoo, she says of the setting on Facebook.
The seller of the ranch, listed in April, is seeking $8 million. The property went off the market and was relisted in November, according to the MLS. Wayne died in 1979 at 72.
