About This Home
Set on 10 scenic, usable acres in Santa Margarita, this storybook country homestead offers a rare blend of charm, functionality, and flexibility. Tucked into a peaceful setting with rolling hills and open skies, it invites a slower, more intentional pace of living while still an easy drive to town. Originally designed as a two-bedroom home, the 1,321± sq ft main residence is filled with natural light, with vaulted ceilings and dormer windows brightening the interiors. The living room serves as the heart of the home, anchored by a striking wood-burning fireplace with a handcrafted mantle made from a reclaimed beam dating back to an 1853 Pennsylvania barn—an authentic, one-of-a-kind focal point. The open-concept layout flows into the dining area and kitchen, where a breakfast bar, center island with cooktop and prep sink, wine refrigerator, and updated backsplash create a space that is both functional and inviting. A built-in desk area adds everyday convenience. The primary suite offers a private retreat with a walk-in closet and spacious bathroom featuring a walk-in shower, soaking tub, and dual pedestal sinks. With its own separate entrance, the bathroom also serves as a guest bath. Just outside, a covered deck and fenced courtyard create a quiet outdoor escape. Outdoor living surrounds the home, including a wraparound deck, enclosed sunroom with large picture windows, and a covered entertaining space with a soaring ceiling and outdoor fireplace—ideal for gatherings or sunset views. Above the detached two-car garage, a treehouse-like studio apartment of approximately 515± sq ft offers excellent versatility. With its own entrances and 3/4 bath, it is well suited for guests, extended family, rental income, or a creative workspace. The garage includes an additional room ideal for an office, gym, or workshop, along with ample storage. The land is fully usable and well suited for a true homestead lifestyle—horses, farm animals, gardens, or simply open space to enjoy. With two wells, water storage, an ozone water treatment system, and 29 solar panels paired with five Briggs & Stratton batteries, the property is well equipped for sustainable living with strong off-grid potential. Per the seller, there may also be potential to build a second home, adding long-term value. Peaceful, private, and full of character, this Santa Margarita homestead offers a setting that feels like a true escape, yet remains close to everyday conveniences.
