Property Description

Oak Mesa Ranchette, a rare and remarkable offering set within the highly exclusive and scenic enclave of Mesa Grande, one of San Diego County’s most treasured backcountry communities. Perched atop its own private plateau and surrounded by expansive cattle ranches and pristine oak studded forest, this exceptional 11.82 acre property embodies the essence of country living, where privacy, beauty, and open space define the lifestyle. -Located along a picturesque stretch of Mesa Grande Road, one of the region’s most scenic highways, this property offers a rare blend of privacy and easy access in the San Diego mountain backcountry. Surrounded by rolling landscapes, mature oaks, and sweeping views, the setting is both peaceful and inspiring, with quiet mornings and beautiful sunset skies. -A paved driveway leads to an expansive thoughtfully maintained ranchette, featuring xeriscape landscaping, vibrant flowering plants, and a lush lawn that complements the natural surroundings. -The beautifully remodeled nearly 2,000 square foot residence offers 3 bedrooms and 2 baths, designed to capture natural light, panoramic views, and purposeful comfort. A flagstone patio entry welcomes you into sunlit interiors, where large windows frame breathtaking westerly vistas. Vaulted wood beam ceilings and an open living area create a sense of volume and warmth, anchored by a striking rock fireplace with a blower insert, ideal for cozy evenings in the mountains. The kitchen blends charm and functionality with ample cabinetry, generous workspace, and its own brick fireplace that adds character and warmth. Just beyond the kitchen, a covered patio provides a peaceful outdoor living space, complete with decorative rock retaining walls and mature plantings, ideal for relaxing, entertaining, or enjoying the natural surroundings with family and pets. The primary bedroom features a beautiful view window and an ensuite bath. Two comfortable secondary bedrooms and a shared bath provide flexible space for guests, family, or a home office. -Additional features include recessed lighting, dual-pane windows with honeycomb shades, updated flooring, and central heating and air. The home also offers a mudroom and an oversized laundry utility space designed for everyday ease. -Beyond the main residence, the property unfolds into a versatile compound. A detached, fully remodeled artist studio/guest retreat offers a kitchenette, full bath, loft sleeping area, skylights, and an entire wall of sliding glass doors that invite in abundant natural light. This one-of-a-kind space is ideal for creative pursuits, guests, or a private sanctuary. -A substantial 1,500+/- square foot metal building provides exceptional flexibility. One side functions as a large workshop, while the other has been converted into a fully renovated apartment with a full kitchen, bath, loft, and storage, perfect for extended family or caretaker quarters. The land itself is both usable and beautiful, fully fenced with multiple gated entries, dotted with fruit trees, and thoughtfully improved for everyday living. -A newly well-constructed metal building is ample room for equipment, storage, or workshop use. -A private well system, supported by a newer 10,000-gallon water storage tank, ensures reliable water, while owned solar enhances efficiency and sustainability. -Oak Mesa Ranchette is more than a property, it is a lifestyle. Defined by wide open spaces and the quiet beauty of the surrounding hills, life here moves at a different pace, grounded in nature, privacy, and the enduring appeal of the beautiful backcountry. * The adjacent ranchland is also available for purchase, offering approximately 169± acres of beautiful rolling pasture. This neighboring parcel features a high producing water well, an agricultural building with an apartment, and expansive terrain that complements the residential offering and presents a rare opportunity to expand or create a larger, cohesive ranch estate.
