About this home

Marvel at the grand illustrious Casa del Cielo, a Spanish mansion in East Redlands. Rebuilt & transformed by the architect/owner in 2011 into a breathtaking mission-style estate. It contains 6077sf, two master suites, two bedrooms, an office, two family rooms, five bathrooms plus two half baths & an ADU. A majestic custom front gate features a striking peacock motif that can accept a stained glass installation. Exterior and interior spaces are adorned with custom-built and imported architectural & artistic features from exotic global destinations, including India, Bali, and Thailand. Eastern and Western design influences combine brilliantly, with Santa Barbara stucco construction and Spanish tile complemented by intricately carved teakwood embellishments & custom-designed inlaid tile, mosaic, & stone. Step through the hand-carved entryway and immediately transcend above the exquisite stone floor medallion & steps below. Then, lift your gaze up to an elegant grand teak foyer, staircase, and banister with a matching bespoke ceiling medallion and imported chandelier. A 350-gallon custom reef tank, central vacuum system, an elaborate Italian sandstone fireplace, master steam-room shower, high open beam ceilings, a woodfire pizza oven, a custom copper range hood, and a gorgeous wine cellar. Wired for a whole-house audio system and central control room to set the mood in every room. The upstairs family room features an Italian marble fireplace, while an adobe fireplace graces one of the two master suites. A full security system includes a magnetic locking front gate, wired for security cameras with remote access, & all-wired windows and doors. The lower level is an ADU with a kitchen & pool bath. Head outside to stroll this approximately 0.8-acre lot, complete with a California native garden featuring mesquite, salvia, lavender, Jerusalem sage, manzanitas, 34 fruit trees (list included), & more! Or take a dip in the in-ground stacked stone-lined swimming pool. A hand-forged wrought iron railing lines the patio & walkway. Finally, the upper balcony offers yet another fireplace & the best view in town! Wonderous sparkling city light views. Steps from the prized Crafton Hills Open Space Conservancy - a haven brimming with hiking, biking & walking trails. In an exclusive neighborhood near Downtown Redlands, Redlands Country Club, Crafton Hills College, & the University of Redlands.

Pros & Cons

Pros

Exceptional Custom Design & Craftsmanship: Rebuilt and transformed by the architect/owner in 2011, the estate boasts unique mission-style architecture with custom-built and imported architectural & artistic features from global destinations, including intricate teakwood, inlaid tile, mosaic, and stone.
Extensive Luxury Amenities: The property is replete with high-end features such as a 350-gallon custom reef tank, central vacuum system, Italian sandstone and marble fireplaces, a master steam-room shower, woodfire pizza oven, custom copper range hood, and a gorgeous wine cellar.
Spacious & Versatile Layout with ADU: With 6077 sqft, two master suites, two additional bedrooms, an office, two family rooms, and a lower-level ADU complete with a kitchen and pool bath, the property offers significant space and flexibility for multi-generational living or potential rental income.
Prime Location & Panoramic Views: Situated in an exclusive Redlands neighborhood, the property offers stunning city light views from an upper balcony fireplace and is steps from Crafton Hills Open Space Conservancy, providing access to extensive hiking and biking trails, while also being close to downtown amenities and universities.
Meticulously Landscaped Grounds with Pool: The approximately 0.8-acre lot features a California native garden with 34 fruit trees, an in-ground stacked stone-lined swimming pool, and hand-forged wrought iron railings, creating a private and resort-like outdoor living space.

Cons

Niche Design Appeal: The highly customized 'Eastern and Western design influences' with specific imported architectural and artistic features, while unique, may appeal to a very specific buyer demographic, potentially narrowing the market pool.
High Operational & Maintenance Costs: A property of this scale (6077 sqft, 0.8-acre lot) with a large, diverse garden (34 fruit trees), a pool, and complex systems (reef tank, whole-house audio, security) will likely entail significant ongoing expenses for utilities, landscaping, and specialized maintenance.
Limited Broad Market Resale Potential: Due to its unique and highly personalized design, the property might experience a longer marketing period or require price adjustments to find a buyer who appreciates its specific aesthetic and is willing to take on the associated maintenance, compared to a more conventionally designed luxury home.
