Agent Description

Welcome home to this private retreat with sweeping views of El Cajon and the surrounding mountains. Located in the Country of San Diego, yet in the heart of El Cajon, this property offers a rare combination of privacy, space, and convenience, with Highways 67 and 8 just minutes away.

Inside, the home features new dual-pane windows with solar shades, updated bathrooms, a fireplace, split A/C in the spacious living room, and a remodeled kitchen with hickory cabinets, island cooktop, and Bosch dishwasher and more. Multiple floor-to-ceiling windows in the living room maximize natural light and showcase the stunning views.

A long private driveway leads to the home and offers plenty of parking for vehicles, RVs, and/or toys. The property includes a variety of fruit trees, including orange, lemon, peach, nectarine, fruit cocktail, and pomegranate, along with grapes and a macadamia nut tree grove for a charming hobby farm feel. A front yard area with grass surrounded by a white picket fence. A backyard area currently set up for horseshoes also offers excellent potential for a secluded garden or play area.

If you are looking for a private oasis with beautiful views, a pool, usable acreage, and close proximity to town, this is a must-see property.
