Some properties are simply places to live. This one is a way of living. Perched in the rolling hills above Escondido, this extraordinary 10-acre estate is for those who have been searching for something rarer than square footage — genuine solitude, connection to the land, and the freedom to exhale.
Behind a private entrance gate, the land opens up dramatically to stunning panoramic valley, sunset and ocean views. The main residence is a 4-bedroom custom ranch home. Guests enter into the open great room with a vaulted ceiling, fireplace and French doors that flow easily to the wraparound porch and outdoor pavilion with metal roof, lights, jacuzzi spa. The chef's kitchen with blue Viking propane oven/stove, custom cabinetry and Azul Bahia granite countertops offers an oversized island with breakfast bar, a butler pantry with extra storage, laundry and sink, a spacious corner pantry and a generous dining area with room for large gatherings. A custom built-in office means the practical rhythms of life are handled gracefully, leaving more room for everything else. The primary bedroom, three secondary bedrooms and 2.5 bathroom of the main house are thoughtfully refreshed for contemporary living and each offer views of the surrounding lands and nature. 9ft ceilings, updated flooring and fresh paint throughout, air conditioning, and a tankless water heater ensure the comfort is effortless. For visiting family, or long-term guests, the fully self-contained 2-bedroom 1 bath guest house with its own private drive, kitchen, laundry, and generous deck where dramatic boulders frame the view, offers complete privacy for everyone on the property. The infrastructure here is worthy of the vision. The fenced property features a private entry gate, a fenced equestrian/livestock area with stable, flat usable land, a circle drive, 24 owned solar panels, underground utilities, two water storage tanks fed by on-site wells, irrigation stations, fruit/nut/pine trees, grape vines, garden areas, scenic paths and a 250-gallon propane tank mean this retreat operates with quiet self-sufficiency. This is a second home or retreat that will become your first priority. A creative refuge. A working homestead. A place to slow down without giving anything up. This secluded estate requires a short adventure along a rural, unpaved country road - a fitting introduction to a property that has always existed on its own terms.
