About the Listing 1298 - C23397

Gracing the San Juan Plateau of La Cresta, Rancho San Juan de las Golondrinas feels less like a house and more like a chapter of history brought to life. Inspired by the great Mexican haciendas, the home is a careful recreation of adobe style yet built to modern standards for today’s comfort. Arriving at the gates, you step through a portón—designed after the San Gabriel Mission—into a shaded vestibule, where the first view through the “Chancel Gate” is not of walls, but of open air: the courtyard and covered patio at the heart of the home. Fruit trees and flowers frame the fountain, their fragrance drifting through the breezeways that connect every room. Inside, the hacienda reveals its character. The formal living room is anchored by a grand fireplace, its wood mantle reclaimed from an 18th-century Kentucky estate. Imported details—wrought iron window grilles, cantera stone columns, and handcrafted pavers—bring the spirit of Mexico into every corner. The kitchen is warm and inviting, with pine cabinetry, a blue tile backsplash, granite counters, and Sub-Zero refrigerator. Off one side, the family room beckons with a wall of bookshelves and a Hacienda-style floor-level fireplace, perfect for quiet evenings. On the opposite side, the dining room glows with the charm of a beehive fireplace, making every meal feel like a gathering. The primary suite opens to its own private patio and features a cozy sitting area with a New Mexico–style corner fireplace, complete with a raised hearth and rustic mantle. Its adjoining bath, with hand-tiled counters and shower, enhances the hacienda character. Two additional spacious bedrooms share a colorful bath finished in cheerful yellow and green Mexican tiles. Each room, true to hacienda tradition, opens directly to the courtyard, ensuring the garden and views are always close at hand. Beyond the main residence lies the barn, with a 400+ square foot studio apartment including a bath and plumbing ready for a kitchen. Three stalls, two paddocks, and a round pen complete the equestrian amenities. Here in La Cresta, life is lived at a gentler pace. Five-acre plus ranches stretch across the hills, equestrian trails wind into the distance, and every sunset seems to last a little longer. At 39100 Avenida La Cresta, the past and present meet in perfect balance—a true Hacienda retreat.
