EQUESTRIAN DREAM! FLAT AS A PANCAKE IN THE HEART OF LA CRESTA! This fully fenced, gated single-story ranch and 7-stall (plus tack room) breezeway barn are in original condition representing an extremely rare opportunity to put your own stamp on it and create the horse ranch of your dreams. 100% flat and usable land with trail access, within the beautiful rolling hills of the Santa Rosa Plateau communities, is a unique find. Builders agree that having an existing home is the easiest and most cost-effective way to build/renovate/expand, making this a perfect blueprint for dialing in your equestrian dream. The layout of the property is ideal, with the barn, pastures and arena toward the back, the home in the middle, and a sprawling flat front yard providing a dramatic buffer between the house and street. Prepare for this custom home with excellent bones to spark your creativity. Live in it, as you renovate, or use the strategy of keeping a wall and build almost from scratch, faster and cheaper than starting with vacant land. This ranch has epic potential!!! The location is also highly desirable, with just a few turns and 10 minutes to all the conveniences of town and is within the stated proximity to the local fire station that qualifies it for special insurance rates. Don’t miss this RARE RARE RARE RARE RARE OPPORTUNITY! *****Discover the Santa Rosa Plateau Lifestyle…5-acre minimum parcels (10-acre minimum. in SR West), just minutes to schools, restaurants, hospitals, grocery stores, 15 Fwy & Temecula Wine Country. Enjoy this peaceful ranch community w/no commercial businesses, robust social activities, miles of private community trails & 1000s of acres of Ecological Reserve…All less than 1.5 hours from LA, SD, OC, Palm Springs & Big Bear. Discover the country, yet convenient, lifestyle of La Cresta, Tenaja & the Communities of the Santa Rosa Plateau!
