Property Description
NEW PRICE: Welcome to this exquisite 1,200-acre luxury estate, a private sanctuary of elegance and tranquility, that is inspired by the timeless beauty of a Tuscan villa. Located near the historic charm of San Juan Capistrano, this extraordinary property invites you to escape the hustle and bustle of Los Angeles and immerse yourself in breathtaking panoramic views of majestic foothills and mountains. Take advantage of the unparalleled privacy and serenity this estate promises perfectly positioned just 45 minutes east of Orange County and a mere 10-minute helicopter ride from the vibrant heart of Downtown LA. Enveloped by over 23,000 lemon trees and 1,200 ancient olive trees imported directly from Italy, every inch of this estate has been meticulously curated to evoke a sense of refined elegance. Formerly home to celebrated figures like Bruce Brown and Dick Marconi, this estate embodies California luxury living at its finest. A private 2-acre lake and four serene ponds punctuate the landscape, while hand-quarried stonework and majestic statues add an artisanal touch. The main residence, spanning over 5,000 sq. ft., seamlessly blends indoor and outdoor living, with floor-to-ceiling windows framing exquisite views. The gourmet kitchen, outfitted with a Viking range and Sub-Zero refrigerator, pairs rustic charm with modern sophistication, while the primary suite offers a spa-like oasis with a step-up tub and a cozy fireplace. Beyond the main residence, the estate boasts amenities that cater to the most discerning tastes, an art studio, wine and cigar lounge, private chapel, and even an observatory for stargazing. The 70-acre wildlife sanctuary, equestrian facilities, and extensive hiking trails further elevate the outdoors, creating a harmonious blend of luxury and nature. This is more than a residence; it is a masterpiece, offering an unparalleled living experience where every detail has been crafted to perfection. For those seeking privacy, beauty, and connection to nature, this is a rare opportunity to own an expansive estate complete with the finest living.
