Set on 5 acres of elevated, breathtaking terrain that backs up to San Gorgonio Wilderness/BLM land, this home offers the kind of privacy, views, and potential that rarely come to market.

The rock waterfall cascading into the pool was thoughtfully crafted using stones from the land itself. Upstairs, the views stretch endlessly over the valley, offering a peaceful backdrop for everyday living. Another bonus feature truly sets this property apart: an oversized garage with an approximately 700 sq ft casita above. Perfect for guests, a studio, or rental potential, the casita includes a full kitchen, bedroom, bathroom, and open-concept living area — all with those same jaw-dropping views. In addition, there is a connex container for additional storage, a flex room, artist studio or ??? Horseback riding trails fan out in every direction, and hikers will find endless space to explore.
