Land Description
0.19 Acres - Historic Mining Town Parcel in Johannesburg, Kern County, Ca
Own a Piece of California's Gold & Silver Mining History.
This 0.19-Acre parcel (±8,276 sq ft) sits in the heart of Johannesburg, California, a small town steeped in mining history and Old West charm. With paved access via Panamint Ave, this property offers a unique opportunity to invest in land near the historic Rand Mining District.
Founded in the late 1800S to support nearby Randsburg's booming gold operations, Johannesburg played a vital role in the region's mining economy, offering rail access and early water infrastructure for miners.
Why This Parcel Stands Out:
Historic Location: Just over 1 mile from Randsburg and only 700 feet from Us-395, making it easily accessible.
Close to Modern Amenities: Only 20 miles south of Ridgecrest for shopping, dining, and services.
Rich Mining Heritage: Near Yellow Aster Mine (major gold site) and Rand Silver Mine (California's top silver-producing site).
Proximity to Major Employers: Close to the Hyundai/Kia and Honda testing facilities, and the Boron Borax Mine-the world's largest borax mine.
Outdoor Recreation Nearby:
Kern County's moderate desert climate and blue skies make it perfect for outdoor enthusiasts:
Off-roading and dirt biking
Rock climbing and hiking
Camping, kayaking, and rafting
Fishing and water sports on the Kern River and Lake Isabella
Day trips to Sequoia National Monument and Red Rock Canyon State Park
