Property Description


11.04 Acres Lot
Built in 1989
For Sale - Active
1 Units

A remarkable 11-acre estate nestled in an enclave of custom homes along the Corralitos Wine Trail, surrounded by sunlit coastal meadows, ancient oaks, redwood groves, and bucolic country roads lined with vineyards, farms, and lush fruit and olive orchards. This is a rare blend of privacy, tranquility, relaxed rural charm, and refined luxury. Just 30 miles from Silicon Valley, 15 minutes to the Monterey Bay, and a stones throw from the world-renowned Corralitos Market. The single-level Mediterranean design is a showcase of craftsmanship and elegance, featuring onyx and marble inlays, soaring ceilings, and a grand, light-filled entry. Interiors flow effortlessly to a landscaped oasis of lawns, gardens, walkways, fruit trees, and vibrant plantings. Outdoor highlights include a sports court, firepit, and multiple inviting spaces for dining and entertaining. A resort-style pool and spa offer sweeping views toward Moss Landing and the Big Sur Mountains. A fully finished six-car detached garage with potential for guest house conversion complements the main residence. Additional features include 60 solar panels, dual Tesla Powerwalls, and an open meadow ready for a future vineyard.
