1335 Horsemill Rd

Welcome to this must-see, single-level home where Mediterranean ease meets Mountain Modern style! The owners spent the last decade transforming this terraced, 1.23-acre property into a luxury mountain retreat. Set far off the street and backing to a pristine 25-acre horse ranch, it feels like a private oasis. The chalet-style, open-beam covered patio features a stone fireplace, concealed TV, and vine-covered pergola extensions. 500+ sq ft of outdoor living space overlooks your own grove of protected Engelmann oaks. The oak grove floor is classic California savannah in summer but turns deep green in fall through spring (bring your horses!) One end of the outdoor living area leads to a shimmering infinity pool surrounded by huge palms, native boulders, and mature landscaping, all designed to blend with the natural setting. Soak in 180-degree mountain views—and spectacular summer sunsets—with peeks all the way to Mt. Soledad. On the other end of the house is a mature orchard with 7 kinds of fruit. Did we mention you’re not even in the house yet? Inside, you’ll find hand-scraped acacia-wood flooring, Berber carpeting in the bedrooms, plantation shutters, and 10-foot ceilings throughout. Kitchen and great room boast a full custom remodel: Rare-pattern exotic granite covers large island and ample counter space. Soaring 42-inch Thomasville glass-front cabinetry with interior lighting and crown molding. Six-burner Wolf range and artisan range hood built of copper and brass. Bosch dishwasher. Large adjoining great room is wired for surround-sound and features a custom fireplace. The most fun way to enter the home is from the poolside. You walk first through a garden of flowers and plants and your eyes are focused on the zero edge pool. As you get closer to the pool you see that it is designed with its own shallow beach. Then you realize you are seeing a beautiful view of mountains, and oak trees. As you keep walking by the pool you can enter the home but you see this huge beautiful outdoor living area. Totally an outdoor living and entertainment room with a double sided fireplace, hidden large screen TV and a sound system that brings films like "Star Wars" to life. And you aren't in the house yet. Once in the home, this is the kind of home you see on TV when celebrities are visited in their home. The light, bright primary bedroom features a bay window and two-sided fireplace that also faces the soaking tub in the spa-like Mountain Modern primary bath. Two secondary bedrooms are connected by a matching Jack and Jill bath. Even the garage is a show place. The finished garage with custom cabinets, workbench, and dedicated gym area. Wholehouse Lennox dual-zone climate control system with paid-for solar means you can run the A/C all summer long for about $50 a month The 60-year tile roof was tuned up and sealed in 2025. Country-quiet but city-close, this property is just 10 to 12 minutes from restaurants, schools, and shopping. It’s perfectly presented, perfectly located, and perfect for family life—or for retiring from the city to the natural beauty of the Old West. The kitchen isn't just remodeled. The original kitchen was totally removed and an upscale gourmet kitchen was created in a total full remodel.
