California, Riverside County, Murrieta, USA

Welcome to your own slice of the California countryside. This isn't just a home-it's a way of life, where every sunrise over the hills reminds you that you're living in some place truly special. Nestled in the heart of the La Cresta Highlands, this charming hacienda-style retreat sits on a scenic hillside surrounded by natural rock formations, mature trees, and wide-open skies. The home itself blends warmth, character, and craftsmanship. Step inside to find smooth Venetian plaster walls and ceilings, rich wood flooring, and tall custom doors with detailed millwork. Iron railings and soft, rustic lighting give the space a cozy yet refined ranch feel.? A double-sided fireplace anchors the heart of the home, connecting the great room and dining area, while large custom bifold doors open wide to the great outdoors-perfect for sipping coffee, hosting gatherings, or just taking in the sweeping views of the valley below.? The primary suite is your personal hideaway, complete with a private deck that feels like a front-row seat to the natural world. The en-suite bath offers a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and dual sinks-everything you need to relax and recharge.? Outside, the land is dotted with mature California oaks, Canary and California palms, olive trees, and drought-tolerant cacti-all framed by distinctive rock outcroppings and vinyl fencing. There's plenty of usable space to add a pool, barn, or guest house-the kind of property that gives you room to dream big.
