Private 1926 Adobe Hacienda

Panoramic ocean views steal the show at this private, original adobe retreat, a paradise rich in
charm and attention to detail. Nestled atop the foothills of Vista in San Diego's North County,
this three-bedroom Spanish hacienda also includes an office with a double trundle bed and a
game room with a queen sleeper sofa.
As you wind up the palm-lined private gated driveway, you're welcomed by a grand fountain
inspired by the Bethesda Fountain in New York City's Central Park. Originally built in 1926, this
secluded adobe home sits on a 1.45-acre estate and exudes timeless character, with original
Spanish tiles, brickwork surrounding the great room fireplace, exposed wood beams, and solid
wood doors throughout.
This is authentic California indoor-outdoor living at its finest. The home is surrounded by lush
landscaping, including an orchard filled with citrus and fruit trees, along with multiple indoor
and outdoor entertaining spaces. Spanning more than 3,000 square feet, the main house
consists of three buildings connected by a loggia, or covered walkway.
The expansive kitchen in the main house features two ovens, a side-by-side refrigerator, and a
dining area. Guests can also enjoy alfresco dining on the veranda just off the main living room.
The poolside entertainment area feels like a private resort, complete with a full outdoor
kitchen, two dining areas, a large BBQ space, and a waterfall that cascades through three
soaking pools into a tropical saline pool. A 38-foot waterslide adds to the fun. The game room
includes a pool table, darts, a 75-inch TV, and easy access to a whirlpool tub just outside. It also
features the queen sleeper sofa.
With unobstructed west-facing views, you can see both Catalina and San Clemente Islands on
clear days. The property truly feels like your own private resort.
