About This Home

First time ever offered for sale, this extraordinary custom Spanish estate is privately situated on 1.63 acres with panoramic valley and sunset views. The property features a 4-bedroom, 2.5-bath main residence with an attached 2-car garage, plus an incredible detached 2,000-square-foot 6-car garage/workshop with an oversized RV roll-up door and an attached 1-bedroom, 1-bath ADU. The main residence showcases exceptional craftsmanship and timeless Spanish character throughout. Versailles-pattern travertine flooring, rich hardwood floors, handcrafted ironwork, custom masonry, and distinctive architectural finishes create a warm, refined, and inviting living environment. Expansive windows capture breathtaking views from nearly every room, while thoughtfully designed indoor-outdoor spaces make the home ideal for everyday living and entertaining. A generous covered patio, rooftop terrace, and charming cantina-style entertaining pavilion extend the home’s Spanish character outdoors, creating memorable spaces for casual gatherings, celebrations, and sunset evenings with family and friends. Adding tremendous value and flexibility, the detached 6-car garage/workshop is a rare find, offering exceptional space for car collectors, RV and boat storage, woodworking, creative pursuits, equipment storage, or a home-based business. Above the garage, the attached 1-bedroom, 1-bath ADU provides an ideal setup for extended family, guests, private workspace, or potential rental use. The grounds offer Valencia orange, lemon, lime, and pomegranate trees, along with abundant room to create a private orchard, expansive gardens, or hobby farm. Modern amenities include owned solar, three Tesla Powerwall batteries, abundant parking, and no HOA. Perfectly positioned just minutes from Interstate 15, the San Diego Zoo Safari Park, San Pasqual Valley boutique wineries, California Center for the Arts, championship golf, shopping, dining, and everyday conveniences, this remarkable estate delivers a rare combination of craftsmanship, functionality, privacy, views, and convenience. A truly one-of-a-kind destination property, thoughtfully designed to be enjoyed for generations.
