From breathtaking panoramic views, to a spacious 3,070 sq/ft house to award winning schools, this house has it all! Perched on a hilltop in the La Cresta community, this 11.38 acre estate has extraordinary views of the Temecula Valley. In the morning, catch the hot-air balloons drifting across the sky; in the evening, watch the city lights glitter below. The house was designed to be able to enjoy the view which brings in natural light into every room. The expansive kitchen offers generous counter space and room for guests to gather round while the evening meal comes together. The living room is anchored by a fireplace, welcomes everything from intimate evenings by the fire to lively holiday gatherings. The wrap-around deck extends parties into the sunset. Downstairs, the oversized family room is an entertainer's dream in its own right, a ready-made game room with space for a pool table, shuffleboard, a media lounge, and more. A detached guest house extends the estate's possibilities, ideal for extended family, visiting guests, a studio, or a private retreat. Families will appreciate the award-winning Murrieta Valley Unified School District, including highly rated Cole Canyon Elementary. The large lot invites dreams of vineyards, orchards, or stables. La Cresta has a strong, established reputation as one of the region's premier equestrian communities. Equestrians will enjoy a three stall barn, round pen, and open pasture. This is one of Southern California's genuine horse communities with private trails wind through the community and connect toward the Santa Rosa Plateau Ecological Reserve, a roughly 9,000 acre protected reserve with Engelmann oak woodlands and vernal pools. Estates of this scale, with views of this caliber, are seldom offered in La Cresta. This is a legacy property, one to hold for generations.
