About this home

Escape to your own private sanctuary in the heart of Valley Center, a peaceful rural community situated in North San Diego County known for its rich agricultural heritage, wide-open spaces, and relaxed country lifestyle. Here, on 24± usable acres of gently rolling terrain, you'll find a rare blend of natural beauty, privacy, and agricultural opportunity. Tucked away in a quiet, secluded setting, this exceptional ranch features a healthy oak grove that creates a lush, park-like atmosphere, while a seasonal stream meanders through the landscape, enhancing the serenity and charm of the land. Valley Center’s temperate climate and fertile soils make it ideal for a variety of agricultural endeavors, and this property is perfectly suited for horses, orchards, livestock, or hobby farming. A charming, character-rich 3 bedroom, 2.5 bath hacienda-style home features classic decorative tile, arched accents, an open-concept main living space perfect for entertaining. Each bedroom includes its own cozy fireplace, while expansive front and side verandas invite seamless indoor-outdoor living. Adding to its appeal, a second home on-site presents a valuable opportunity for rental income, guest accommodations, or housing for a ranch manager. Whether you're seeking a productive working ranch, a multi-generational estate, or a peaceful country escape, this enchanting property embodies the best of Valley Center's rural charm and agrarian lifestyle. Fully fenced and cross-fenced, the land offers functional versatility, while both municipal water and a private well provide reliable and abundant water access for residential use and agricultural needs. This vintage estate offers more than just a beautiful home—it’s a wonderland for families. With shady woods, a babbling creek, and built-in fun like tree swings and climbing areas, it’s the perfect place for kids (and kids-at-heart) to explore, imagine, and play. A magical blend of timeless character and outdoor adventure awaits. 13511 Hilldale Road, Valley Center, CA 92082

Condition Rating
Fair

Built in 1954, this hacienda-style home retains much of its original or older renovated character. The main house's kitchen features dated decorative tile countertops and backsplash with traditional wooden cabinets and an older range. Bathrooms also show dated fixtures, vanities, and tile work. While clean and functional, these areas would require significant cosmetic updates to meet current buyer expectations. Flooring is a mix of well-maintained terracotta tile, laminate, and carpet. Some updates like mini-split AC units are present, indicating ongoing maintenance. The property is aged but appears well-maintained, fitting the 'Fair' category as it requires minor updates to modernize, but does not show signs of major structural or safety defects.

Rural Seclusion: While offering privacy, the secluded Valley Center location might be a drawback for buyers seeking closer proximity to urban amenities, services, or shorter commutes.
