About this home
Welcome to one of the most extraordinary properties in the valley — a rare, single-story estate totaling 5,019 sq ft on just under 7.5 flat, fully usable acres tucked into the foothills of West Murrieta where you feel miles from civilization yet minutes from everything. As you turn onto your private driveway, the breathtaking curb appeal sets the tone — towering mature trees, blooming rose bushes, and beautifully manicured traditional landscaping create a stunning arrival that makes an unforgettable first impression. This completely gated property literally borders the Santa Rosa Plateau Ecological Reserve — nearly 10,000 acres of pristine protected open space is your front yard, complete with a private gate providing direct access to miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails. Views in every direction — mountains, valley, city lights, and endless open sky — from virtually every room in the house. The oversized 4-car garage and 927 sq ft 1-bed/1-bath ADU with full kitchen, bath, and laundry are perfect for guests, multigenerational living, or rental income. The main house is just under 4,100 sq ft with 3 bedrooms and 2.5 bathrooms. The 7.30 acres of level land also carry genuine subdivision potential, making this as much an investment as a dream home. Equestrian enthusiasts will love being just a short horse ride to the Murrieta Equestrian Center. Step inside to a grand formal living and dining room with soaring ceilings, walls of windows, hardwood floors, and a beautifully remodeled fireplace. The fully remodeled chef's kitchen features all-new stainless steel appliances, built-in refrigerator, induction cooktop, trash compactor, and generous counter space. All bathrooms newly remodeled. The backyard is an entertainer's paradise — lush grass, a fire pit, and a brand-new outdoor kitchen with BBQ, pizza oven, mini fridge, drink fridge, ice maker, and single burner, all framed by sweeping city light and mountain views. Unwind in your private spa just off the master bedroom with those same jaw-dropping views. The producing orchard features fig, ruby red grapefruit, orange, mandarin, avocado, and lemon trees on drip irrigation alongside a thriving garden. Utility costs nearly non-existent — 42 paid-off solar panels, a new 600-ft deep well producing 300 gallons per minute, and a newer HVAC system. Fully gated with fire truck turnaround and on-site fire hydrant. This is not just a home — it is a lifestyle, a legacy, and a once-in-a-generation opportunity....
