Dreams Begin Here. Do you dream of living by the beach… yet escaping to the mountains just an hour away? Welcome to Crown Hill Ranch — a rare private sanctuary where quiet fills the air, fresh water flows from your own well, and life slows into something meaningful. You’ve earned this. A place to step away from screens and city lights. A place to create, restore, and breathe deeply. At the heart of the property sits an award-winning treehouse studio, an inspiring retreat for writing, painting, or simply watching the light move through the trees. A charming one-bedroom guest cabin offers ideal on-site housing for a ranch manager or guests, creating an effortless weekend getaway or full-time escape. Mornings begin on the yoga deck, surrounded by birdsong. Evenings unwind in the outdoor copper shower and soaking bath, filled with fresh lavender and sage from your own gardens — a daily ritual that feels like a private spa. The modern one-bedroom farmhouse blends comfort with character: • Oversized wraparound porch overlooking the historic 21,000-acre Rancho Guejito • Wood-burning stove for cozy nights • Modern kitchen and bath • Loft bedroom with clawfoot tub and sweeping hill views The land itself is extraordinary — mature blue gum and lemon eucalyptus, coastal live oaks, and rare Engelmann oaks. Hummingbirds gather near the pollinator garden, and “Bee Hill” supports a thriving honey harvest. With abundant well water rights and no endangered species restrictions, the property offers both beauty and peace of mind. Crown Hill Ranch isn’t just a home. It’s a retreat. It's a studio. It's a sanctuary. It can be your legacy. Come breathe deeper. Come create more. Come home. *Two APNs: 240-070-11-00 (77 acres) and 240-150-07-00 (80 acres) PROPERTY HIGHLIGHTS: • Privacy, peace, and serenity envelop you with various wildlife and natural elements. • On a clear day, you can see the Coronado Islands, San Clemente, and all the way to Catalina Island. • There is a building plan and pad already earmarked for a 4,800 sqft home. • Currently, there is a 1-bedroom barn-kit home, a 1-bedroom tree house, and a 1-bedroom office/guest house on the 77-acre parcel. • Well water is supplied by three wells, solar power with battery backup, septic facilities, and propane are all in place. • A second home may be built on the 80-acre parcel along with additional ag buildings. • Two APNs: 240-070-11-00 (77 acres) and 240-150-07-00 (80 acres) • The ranch has a quaint, modern one-bedroom farmhouse. • You can lounge on the oversize wraparound porch, overlooking the historic 21,000-acre Rancho Guejito, the last privately owned Mexican land grant. • The farmhouse has a wood-burning stove for those cool nights, and is equipped with a modern kitchen and bathroom. • The upstairs loft bedroom has a clawfoot bathtub and views of rolling hills. • Look out onto mature trees, including blue gum eucalyptus, lemon eucalyptus, coastal Live Oaks, and the rare Engelmann oak. • There are no endangered species or plants on the property. • You might spot hummingbirds gathered around black button sage, or in the pollination garden. • “Bee Hill” is a perch that has been used by beekeepers to develop a thriving honey yield. • The ranch provides a safe home for mountain lions, golden eagles, mule deer, coyotes, bobcats, quail, road runners, hawks, owls, and wild turkeys. • The rich presence of wildlife gives you a true sense of being in the wild West.
