About This Home

As of August 2025

Nestled at the end of a serene cul-de-sac in Temecula's coveted Los Ranchitos community, this breathtaking custom estate redefines luxury living. The 3,300 sq ft single-story home on approximately 1-acre was stripped to the studs, expanded and completely remodeled in 2003. The property is powered by 80 solar panels. As you pass through the stately wrought iron entry gate, a storybook courtyard unfolds — complete with a bubbling fountain and a built-in gas fireplace. Step inside to discover an awe-inspiring sanctuary where an open, flowing floor plan seamlessly blends sophistication with comfort. Dual master suites — each a retreat unto itself — anchor the design, complemented by two guest rooms plus a huge office with built-ins and a large laundry room. The expansive great room with beautiful custom brick fireplace is framed by the multiple French doors looking out to the patio and backyard. Every inch whispers refinement: soaring open-beamed ceilings, hardwood floors, French doors that beckon the outdoors in, and alderwood doors that elevates every space. The connoisseur’s island kitchen is a culinary dream, poised to host unforgettable gatherings. Outside, the fully landscaped grounds unfold like a private estate from a bygone era. The expansive back porch overlooks a large fenced backyard with storage shed. Beautiful panoramic views stretch toward the horizon, framed by mature trees, and sprawling lawns. Two separate 2-car garages with an adjacent workshop stands ready for your projects or prized vehicles. Electricity and water utilities along with trash and HOA dues are included. 1-year or less rental terms are open for consideration. Call today to schedule your private showing!
