Built in 1994, this custom-built ranch estate is well-maintained and offers a unique layout with a granny flat and extensive outdoor spaces. However, the interior finishes, particularly in the kitchen and bathrooms, are significantly dated. The kitchen features older black appliances and light wood cabinetry, while the bathrooms showcase 1990s-era small square tiles and vanities. The bold patterned carpets in several rooms, including a bathroom, are a strong indicator of an outdated aesthetic. While functional, the property requires minor updates to modernize the kitchen and bathrooms to meet current buyer expectations.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Exclusive Equestrian Community: Nestled within the private, gated Rancho Capistrano, this property offers a unique equestrian lifestyle with direct access to trails, a clubhouse with various sports courts, and year-round community events.
Expansive & Developable Acreage: The sprawling 2.36-acre street-to-street parcel includes multiple flat areas, providing significant potential for a pool, ADU, additional equestrian facilities, or other custom developments.
Panoramic Mountain Views & Outdoor Living: Boasting stunning panoramic views of Santiago Peak, San Gorgonio, and San Jacinto mountains, complemented by an extensive 1,100 sq. ft. enclosed porch ideal for year-round entertaining.
Architect-Designed Custom Home with Granny Flat: A custom-built, architect-owned estate featuring a thoughtful floor plan and a dedicated 1-bed/1-bath granny flat with a private entrance, perfect for multigenerational living or guest accommodations.
Privacy & Unique Climate: Situated at the end of a cul-de-sac with a gated entrance, ensuring privacy, and benefiting from a 3,000’ elevation that provides cooler temperatures and occasional winter snow dustings.

Cons

Geographic Location & Commute: While offering a peaceful retreat, its location in Lake Elsinore, 35 minutes from the Orange County coastline, may present a longer commute for those working or frequently visiting major urban centers.
Potential for System/Aesthetic Updates: Built in 1994, the property, despite being custom-built, may require updates to certain systems or aesthetic elements to align with contemporary luxury home standards.
Limited Local High-End Services: The immediate Lake Elsinore area may not offer the same breadth of high-end dining, shopping, and cultural amenities typically found in more established luxury markets, which could be a consideration for some buyers.
