Peleg Brown Ranch, Historic ranch building in Reno, United States.

Peleg Brown Ranch is a property with five buildings spread across four acres near Reno. The main house, built in 1864, features Greek Revival style with white columns and balanced proportions, while a smaller Craftsman-style structure served as a playhouse from around 1900 onward.

The Brown brothers established this ranch in 1857 after arriving from Rhode Island and began growing alfalfa, a crop that was new to the Truckee Meadows region. The main house was built in 1864 and has defined the property ever since.

The ranch's name honours Peleg Brown, a Rhode Island native who arrived in the Truckee Meadows in 1857 with his brother Joshua; the property is also known as the Louis Damonte Ranch. The brothers brought alfalfa to the meadows, a crop that shaped local farming. A Craftsman-style playhouse of about 8 by 10 feet, built around 1900, still stands among the buildings.

The ranch is located on Old Virginia Road outside Reno and can be viewed from the surrounding area. Visitors should check ahead on access conditions, as it remains a private property with restrictions on entry.

The ranch served as a stagecoach stop and supplier for the Comstock Lode silver mining operations, connecting agricultural life to the broader mining economy. This dual role meant the farm supported a fast-moving economy beyond simple farming.
