Property Description

Imagine owning a one of a kind, handcrafted hacienda on 10+ acres! This magical 'Old World' hacienda was built in 2007 by the owner/builder & serves as a tranquil sanctuary for all who visit. Exposed beamed ceilings, acid-stained concrete floors, buttery smooth Alder wood cabinetry, hand forged iron railing, and stone mosaics are just a sampling of the spectacular craftsmanship. Enjoy cooking and entertaining? You'll love the well-appointed gourmet kitchen with massive island which opens to the family room and loggia. There is an abundance of custom, soft close cabinetry, and a separate butler's pantry off the kitchen, perfect for preparations of any scale. The covered outdoor kitchen is perfectly staged and equally impressive. Here the family has hosted numerous weddings, spiritual retreats, and intimate gatherings. The entire 2nd floor serves the main Master bedroom. Appointments include a library with separate balcony, spectacular master bath with 3/4 inch travertine slab basket weave flooring, soaking tub, custom walk in closet, fireplace, exposed beamed ceilings and a generously sized covered balcony, perfect for lounging, stargazing and private massage. From the two story wall of windows that greets you as you enter through the massive hand carved double doors, to the pristine mountain views, you will find yourself drenched in nature. The 1st floor master is wheel chair accessible, with private access from the courtyard. There is a separately metered optional guest suite/ ADU on the entry level with private access, sitting area and kitchenette. There is an approx 2000 sf agricultural building with separate 200 AMP panel, wired for 3-phase electricity, currently used as a workshop on the property. This building could accommodate 6-10 cars, a car collector's dream! There are also 4 permitted cargo containers ranging in size from 20-40 ft long. The property has been Masterfully landscaped with automated irrigated watering systems. The front portion of property features drought resistant plantings and the backyard is tropical and exotic with bamboo, palms and cycads. There is a Vineyard of 800+ head pruned Sangiovese & Old Vine Zinfandel vines. This property feels so remote and private, yet very centrally located: Just 3.8 miles to I-15 and North County Fair Shopping Center, 3.1 miles to Trader Joe's, and 2.0 miles to the Safari Park. Surrounded by Wineries and Craft Breweries, there's plenty to experience and explore. Come prepared to walk the grounds and trails, or perhaps arrange to take a ride on 'Pepe and Ranger' to experience the vast views of the San Pascual Valley from the peaks of this magnificent parcel.
