Welcome to a private, gated road, single story ranch in the hills off Del Dios, with the space and flexibility to create something truly your own. Whether you're dreaming of a homestead, family compound, equestrian property, or simply more room to live, this property offers endless possibilities. The “V” animal designator allows for horses, with riding facilities just across the street and miles of trails around the area and Lake Hodges. Northwest ocean breezes help keep summer temperatures cooler, while the elevated setting delivers beautiful sunset views. The main home offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths in 1,848 original square feet, plus an additional one bedroom, one bath suite garage addition, for an estimated 2,400 square feet under roof per the owner. Four additional outbuildings create options for storage, workshops, hobbies, animals, or future plans. One is the original home on the property, believed to date back to the 1940s. There is room here for gardens, animals, homeschooling, multi-generational living, projects, or just having space between you and your neighbors. And while it feels tucked away, the everyday conveniences of Rancho Santa Fe and Escondido are just minutes away. If you've been looking for more land, more privacy, and more freedom to create the lifestyle you actually want, this is one worth seeing.
