Privately perched atop 47.51 acres in the hills of La Cresta, this magnificent Mediterranean estate captures extraordinary views stretching from distant mountain ranges and rolling valleys to sparkling evening lights and unforgettable sunsets.
Occupying a commanding hilltop setting, the property offers exceptional privacy, elegance, and endless possibilities. Comprised of five APN parcels totaling 47.51 acres, with substantial usable land, it presents a rare opportunity for a multi-generational family compound, private retreat, vineyard, grove, equestrian estate, or legacy property.
Spanning approximately 5,900 square feet across three levels, the residence was designed to embrace its remarkable surroundings while offering the convenience of a private elevator servicing every floor. Expansive windows, French doors, soaring spaces, and stately 8-foot doors frame spectacular views throughout. The home features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 baths, dual primary suites, a library, exercise room, wine closet, and hobby room. Excellent high-speed internet connectivity provides modern convenience rarely found on an estate of this size and privacy.
The gourmet kitchen showcases granite slab countertops, custom cabinetry, premium appliances, a walk-in pantry, and generous counter seating. The adjoining family room is anchored by a two-sided fireplace and custom entertainment center.
Approximately 2,000 square feet of balconies and terraces provide exceptional indoor-outdoor living and endless opportunities to relax, entertain, and enjoy the panoramic scenery. The grounds feature fountains, a variety fruit orchard, and the peaceful ambiance that only a property of this scale can provide. Both well and city water service the property.
Surrounded by La Cresta's renowned estates and scenic ranches, this extraordinary offering combines privacy, timeless architecture, usable acreage, modern amenities, and unforgettable views.
This is La Cresta living at its finest.
