Enjoy room to grow at this expansive gated equestrian estate in the gently rolling coastal hills of San Juan Capistrano, where this classic and rare single-story ranch house boasts a one-acre homesite and an equally generous floorplan. Offering exceptional privacy, the gated residence is an outdoor lover’s dream, with an oversized lawn, covered paddock, chicken coup, lush and colorful gardens, a putting green, and a pool with waterfall and spa. The virtually flat property also features split-rail fencing, ample guest and RV parking, a three-car garage, covered Spanish tile patios and raised vegetable gardens for farm-to-table freshness. A broad covered porch adorns the home’s double-door entry, which introduces a sprawling five-bedroom, four-bath design of approximately 4,338 square feet. Main living areas offers views to the front and back yards and include a step-down formal living room with fireplace, a formal dining room, and a spacious great room with bar, fireplace, room for a pool table, and a vaulted and beamed ceiling. A white-on-white kitchen opens to the back patio and the dining room and hosts a butcher-block island. Relax and refresh in a remodeled primary suite with a private view deck, fireplace, sitting area, and an elegant bath with soaking tub and separate shower. Ideal for indoor and outdoor entertaining, the impressive property is detailed with wood flooring, crown molding, and large windows that create a light and bright living environment. Located near trails on a private cul-de-sac street, the estate is close to downtown San Juan Capistrano’s historic mission and lively shops and restaurants. Dana Point Harbor is just moments from home, and beaches, luxe resorts, golf and more are nearby.
