Property Description


5.13 Acres Lot
Built in 1982
For Sale - Active
1 Units

Sunrise warms the vines at this enchanting Soquel Hills estate vineyard, where 5.1 acres of flat, fertile meadow meet a quiet forest edge. First planted in 1982, this is among the oldest vineyards in the Santa Cruz Mountains; nurtured by decades of care and perfectly situated to benefit from cool Monterey Bay breezes and long, sunlit afternoons. Just two miles up Rodeo Gulch, a private drive winds through cypress and olive trees to reveal a gleaming white stucco villa with red tile roof, surrounded by orderly vineyard rows. The main residence offers approx 2,986 sq ft with 4 beds, 3 baths, and a grand two-story atrium. A 2-bedroom guest cottage sits shaded by oaks nearby. Inside, high ceilings, wide-plank wood floors, and traditional fireplaces offer timeless warmth. The updated kitchen features limestone floors, quartzite counters, and stainless appliances. A wraparound deck and sunset patio invite indoor-outdoor living. The wine cellar below and vineyard views from nearly every window remind you: this is a place of stories, harvests, and heart. Private yet close to Mid County conveniences, this estate is a rare blend of Old World charm and California soulready for its next chapter under the Soquel sun.
