Perched atop a tranquil, gated hilltop, this exceptional estate offers a rare blend of privacy, functionality, and everyday convenience. With sweeping 360-degree panoramic views, you’ll enjoy stunning sunrises and unforgettable sunsets from nearly every corner of the property. The main residence features 3 bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, anchored by a well-appointed kitchen with a large peninsula that seamlessly opens to the inviting family living area—ideal for both daily living and entertaining. The grounds are thoughtfully landscaped with mature greenery and an impressive variety of fruit trees and plants, including oranges, guava, plums, grapes, blackberries, bananas, and artichokes—creating a lush, self-sustaining environment. Outdoor living shines here, with expansive wraparound patios complete with a built-in grilling station and fire pit—perfect for hosting gatherings or unwinding under the stars. Equestrian enthusiasts will appreciate the dedicated facilities, including a mare motel, large stall, and a small arena, all designed to support a functional and enjoyable horse lifestyle. A separate, converted 1-bedroom, 1-bath ADU (granny flat) offers flexibility for extended family, guests, or potential rental income. Additionally, a detached, oversized pass-through garage provides ample space for storage, a workshop, or possible conversion into a fifth bedroom or office. The property also includes generous parking options, with a covered carport and plenty of room for RVs, trailers, and recreational vehicles. This peaceful hilltop retreat is a rare opportunity.
