Set on 2.54 usable acres in the heart of Valley Center, this classic ranch-style property is thoughtfully updated while maintaining its nostalgic character. The three-bedroom home features soaring vaulted ceilings with exposed beams, less than one-year-old luxury plank flooring, an updated kitchen, freshly painted exterior, owned solar, and a newer concrete tile roof. Horse facilities include 2 stall barn with tack room, 139'x99' sand arena, livestock pen and additional corrals. The oversized workshop offers 200 amp service plus office.  Designed to embrace Southern California's outdoor lifestyle, the backyard is an entertainer's dream with a black-bottom pool and spa, built-in barbecue, authentic pizza oven, inviting firepit, and a charming rustic gazebo overlooking the equestrian facilities.  Horse enthusiasts will appreciate the impressive setup, including an improved riding arena with upgraded footing and drainage, a two-stall barn complete with tack room and adjacent wash rack, livestock pen, and three oversized covered corrals. A spacious 4+ car workshop with an adjoining office and 200 amp service provides endless possibilities for hobbies, equipment storage, or a home-based business.  The fully fenced and cross-fenced property features multiple gated entrances for convenient access and versatility. Adding to its appeal, the established citrus grove is currently harvested by a third party and generates approximately $250 to $400 per month in supplemental income.  Whether you're seeking a private ranch retreat, an equestrian property, or a versatile estate with room to work, entertain, and enjoy the outdoors, this exceptional Valley Center property offers a rare opportunity to experience the best of country living.
