About this home
Huge Price Adjustment! Almost 8,500 SF of structures, Timeless Riverside Estate with Three Legal Units and Endless Possibilities. Steeped in Riverside history, this extraordinary 1912 English Medieval–style estate by renowned architect Robert Farquhar sits quietly at the end of a private cul-de-sac in the Canyon Crest area—an ideal setting for those dreaming of a true family compound. The main residence spans four stories and offers approximately 3,633 square feet per title, plus a 1,224 square-foot finished basement featuring a game room, laundry area, and a walk-in safe, along with 338 square feet of finished attic maids’ quarters—a total of nearly 5,200 square feet of interior living space under one roof. A remodel was started but never completed, leaving the perfect canvas for a buyer to restore and customize this architectural gem. Major upgrades are already in place, including newer electrical, HVAC systems, a tankless water heater, a new roof, and a paid-off solar system that powers most of the property. Across the grounds sits a 1,081 square-foot four-car garage with an attached 1,002 square-foot workshop that includes its own bedroom and bathroom, plus an additional 400 square feet of storage—ideal for hobbyists, car collectors, or conversion into a creative studio. On the far end of the lot, a fully permitted 780 square-foot ADU provides a private one-bedroom guest house or rental opportunity.
Altogether, this expansive estate encompasses approximately 8,498 square feet of structures—including the main house, basement, finished attic, garages, workshops, and ADU—on a generous lot surrounded by mature trees and quiet privacy. Rarely does a property combine such rich history, square footage, and flexibility in one address. Whether reimagined as a multi-generation retreat, artist enclave, or modern compound, 5130 Chequers Court offers a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a piece of Riverside’s past and shape its next chapter.
