About This Home

As of September 2025

Opportunity Knocks at “Ace in the Hole Ranch” On the market for the first time in 40 years, this 1.8-acre property (two flat parcels) offers potential for the right buyer. Zoned RU (Urban Residential), it may suit a variety of uses—buyers to verify with the County of San Diego and City of Vista. The setting is peaceful, with mature oak and sycamore trees and a seasonal creek (Buena Creek) running through the land. Despite the rural feel, it’s just minutes from the Sprinter station, shopping, and restaurants. The existing 3-bedroom, 1-bath home was built in 1947 and needs significant work. Additional structures include multiple sheds and an older mobile home. This property is best suited for those looking for a fixer, income project, or long-term redevelopment opportunity.
