Offered for the first time ever, this private retreat seamlessly blends timeless architecture, elevated amenities, and exceptional investment potential—all just minutes from the Pacific coastline and world-class destinations. Set on two acres of masterfully landscaped grounds, the estate’s resort-style outdoor sanctuary is designed to impress. A commercial-grade pool with a cascading waterfall, thrilling waterslide, grotto, and two separate kiddie pools provides endless entertainment and relaxation. A serene jacuzzi invites quiet evenings under the stars, while a multi-sport court perfect for basketball, tennis, or pickleball elevates the outdoor experience. Surrounding it all: lush gardens, 71 palm trees, and 21 fruit-bearing trees, framing panoramic views and a deep sense of privacy. Inside, the residence offers four spacious bedrooms, easily convertible to six, and an expansive primary suite with vaulted ceilings, private retreat space, and a dedicated workout room perfect for wellness and rejuvenation just steps from your bed. The home is richly appointed with custom finishes, generous living areas, and fluid indoor-outdoor design, perfect for entertaining or multigenerational living. Originally constructed in 2001, with a substantial addition, exterior stonework, and pool completed in 2008, this home is also fully Airbnb-ready, offering an incredible opportunity for luxury rental income or private group retreats. A car enthusiast’s dream, the estate boasts a four-car garage, plus a separate two-car garage perfectly suited for conversion into an ADU, guesthouse, or executive home office.

Condition Rating
Good

This custom-built estate, constructed in 2001 with a substantial addition in 2008, is in very good, move-in ready condition. The kitchen features well-maintained wood cabinetry, granite countertops, and stainless steel appliances, all functional and clean, though their style reflects the early 2000s. Bathrooms are similarly well-kept with granite and traditional finishes. Flooring, including tile, carpet, and hardwood, appears in excellent condition. While the property boasts high-quality finishes and amenities for its era, the aesthetic of the kitchen and bathrooms is not contemporary, preventing an 'Excellent' rating. However, there are no immediate renovations or repairs required, and major systems appear well-maintained, aligning perfectly with the 'Good' condition criteria.
Pros & Cons

Pros

Resort-Style Outdoor Sanctuary: The property boasts a commercial-grade pool with a cascading waterfall, thrilling waterslide, grotto, two kiddie pools, jacuzzi, and a multi-sport court, offering unparalleled entertainment and relaxation.
Exceptional Income & Conversion Potential: Fully Airbnb-ready for luxury rental income, and includes a separate two-car garage perfectly suited for conversion into an ADU, guesthouse, or executive home office.
Expansive & Private Hilltop Estate: Set on two masterfully landscaped acres with 71 palm trees and 21 fruit-bearing trees, providing deep privacy and framing panoramic views from its hilltop location.
Strategic Location with Coastal Proximity: Perched in the tranquil hills of Escondido, offering a balance of seclusion and convenient access to the Pacific coastline, San Diego Zoo Safari Park, and world-class beaches.
Luxurious & Versatile Interior Design: Features four spacious bedrooms (easily convertible to six), an expansive primary suite with a dedicated workout room, custom finishes, and fluid indoor-outdoor living spaces ideal for entertaining or multigenerational living.

Cons

Significant Ongoing Maintenance: The extensive resort-style amenities and large, meticulously landscaped 2-acre grounds will necessitate substantial ongoing maintenance and associated costs.
Inland Climate Considerations: Located in Escondido, the property will experience hotter summer temperatures compared to direct coastal areas, which may be a consideration for buyers seeking cooler ocean breezes.
Original Construction Year: While substantial additions and exterior work were completed in 2008, the core residence was originally constructed in 2001, which may imply some systems or design elements could be older than a newly built luxury home.
