Property Description
BIG PRICE REDUCTION on this scenic Hilltop Retreat with Expansive Views on 20 Private Acres. Welcome to your own private sanctuary-this beautifully maintained 2-bedroom, 3.5-bathroom, 2,458 sq ft two-story home sits atop 20 acres of usable land, offering both comfort and versatility in a peaceful, secluded setting. Pride of ownership is evident throughout, from the freshly painted exterior, to the well organized and maintained grounds, to the thoughtfully designed interior spaces. Energy efficiency is top of mind with paid solar and a whole-house Generac generator, providing peace of mind and lower utility costs. A detached 2-car garage and an electric gated entry enhance both functionality and security. The expansive front patio offers panoramic valley and mountain views, surrounded by inviting, mature landscaping-an ideal space for relaxing or entertaining. Step inside to discover tiled flooring throughout the main level, anchored by a stunning great room with soaring ceilings, 3" wood shutters, dual-pane windows, and stylish ceiling fan/light fixtures. The primary suite on the main floor features a spacious bedroom, dual-sink vanity, large walk-in shower, and a separate soaking tub-your own private retreat. The galley-style kitchen is equipped with a refrigerator, microwave, and electric oven/range, perfect for everyday living. An oversized laundry room offers ample storage and includes a second full bathroom with a shower. Upstairs, the home transforms into a second living space, complete with its own kitchen, generous bedroom, and cozy living room-all offering sweeping views of the surrounding landscape, including the shimmering Diamond Valley Lake and city lights of Hemet. The entire property is fully fenced, featuring a separate fenced rear area, a well-finished structure ideal as a chicken coop or dog kennel, and a large storage shed. There's plenty of space for expansion, whether you envision building additional residences, a workshop, orchards, or equestrian facilities. Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac, this property offers true tranquility-yet it is just 15 minutes from all conveniences and only 20 minutes to Temecula's world-renowned wine country. This is more than just a home-it's a lifestyle. Experience privacy, potential, and panoramic beauty all in one extraordinary property.
