Property Description

Welcome to modern country living at this expansive 4-acre property with two stunning, custom-built homes. Nestled between Rancho Santa Fe and Lake Hodges in Southwest Escondido, this entertainer’s country retreat will take your breath away. As you approach the circular paver stone driveway that connects the main house to the guest house (ADU), you’re immediately greeted with relaxation and entertainment. Accentuated by a two-tier water feature, the front yard is where you can enjoy gorgeous sunsets by the custom fire pit, and a peek of ocean views while on the putting green. Upon entering the main 2,209 sq. ft. split level 4 bed, 3 full bath home, the stacked stone fireplace that soars up to the vaulted beam ceiling adds a dramatic touch of rustic charm. The natural light creates an open, airy feeling and flows right into the custom designer kitchen. The large quartz island is the main focal point of the kitchen and is perfect for gatherings. The designer touches continue to the beautiful pendant lighting, glass tiled backsplash, and down to the driftwood color tile floors. The indoor-outdoor living experience continues through the vanishing 12-foot slider that opens to a spacious deck where you can enjoy sunset and ocean views. Retreat for the night to one of two primary en-suites that are located on each floor. Through the breezeway, you’ll find a detached, oversized 2-car garage with extensive built-in cabinets. You can also access the large tropical oasis backyard, complete with a sparkling pool, waterfall, spa, outdoor kitchen and fire pit. Multiple patio areas, including a large pergola, offer plenty of room for relaxation and entertaining. The second home, a single-story gem built in 2021 and 1,200 sq. ft., offers 3 bedrooms and 2.5 baths, an over-sized laundry along with an attached 2-car garage. Its modern open concept design complements the rural surroundings, providing a seamless blend of comfort and luxury living. Whether you choose to live in one home and rent the other for passive income, or accommodate extended family, this property offers incredible flexibility. The property also features a seasonal creek, multiple sheds including a connex storage container, RV parking, and a variety of fruit trees, including pomegranate, lemon, orange, zapote, and lime. The acreage provides additional space to add pickleball courts, horse corrals and RV parking if you desire. With solar panels, this home is both energy-efficient and environmentally friendly. With no HOA and a gate maintenance fee of just $250 annually for each home, this property is a rare find that combines rural tranquility with modern amenities.
