Welcome to The Overlook at Paradise Mountain"”11.82 acres with expansive westerly views, direct horseback access to Hellhole Canyon, and a property designed for far more than everyday residential living. Completed in 2018, this custom single-level Valley Center estate combines timber-and-stone architecture with extensive outdoor living, equestrian facilities, a permitted 4,000 sq. ft. workshop and an approved ADU site. From the great room and rear patio, the elevated setting looks west across the surrounding hills, creating a front-row view of the evening sunsets. Inside the approximately 3,572 sq. ft. residence, exposed timber beams, natural stone, walnut engineered hardwood flooring and Andersen windows with custom walnut casings create a warm, substantial interior. Large bi-fold and sliding glass doors connect the main living areas directly to the covered patio. The floor plan includes five bedrooms, each with its own ensuite full bath, plus a powder room and an additional half bath in the attached 3-car garage. The kitchen is finished with custom walnut cabinetry, granite counters, a professional Wolf range, Sub-Zero refrigerator and freezer, Cove dishwasher, pot filler and built-in Miele coffee system with cup-warming tray. Just beyond it, the living-room bar was built for serious entertaining, with an integrated refrigerator, dual kegerator with custom taps, glass rinser, ice maker and commercial soda system. The soda lines route through the ice maker before reaching the bar gun, keeping beverages chilled through the pour. The primary suite includes direct slider access to the rear patio and western views. A large walk-in closet is fitted with extensive custom cabinetry, drawers, shelving and hanging storage. The bath includes heated flooring, heated towel rack, BainUltra soaking tub and a Steamist shower system with heated floor and bench, integrated audio, lighting modes, aromatherapy, precision steam controls and individual user profiles. One additional guest suite also has direct slider access to the patio. The outdoor living area stretches across a large covered patio finished with a wood ceiling, stone columns, recessed infrared heaters, integrated projector and retractable screen. A Twin Eagles outdoor kitchen includes a Wi-Fi pellet smoker, griddle, power burner, sink and refrigerator. Conduit is already stubbed for a future spa. Exterior stairs lead to an elevated view deck above the patio, providing another vantage point for the acreage, surrounding hills and western sunsets. The equestrian improvements include an arena finished with limestone sand imported from Florida, a round pen, tack shed and covered stall barn with four large stalls that can be divided into eight 12x12 stalls. Water is plumbed to the stalls, with electrical service available in the barn area. Riders can leave directly from the property and ride to Hellhole Canyon County Preserve approximately half a mile away, without trailering. The 1,907-acre preserve includes 13.5 miles of moderate-to-advanced trails along with an equestrian staging area with trailer parking, potable water and additional park facilities. The permitted 4,000 sq. ft. workshop is fully insulated and drywalled with four 14' x 14' roll-up doors; three serve the main shop area and the fourth accesses a separate dedicated bay. The shop includes a 200-amp subpanel, 3-phase power, multiple 50-amp outlets, compressed air, dust collection, air scrubbers and pre-run mini-split line sets. A tightline is already run toward the existing septic system for a potential future bathroom, subject to permits and approvals. Additional improvements include San Diego County-approved plans for a 2-bedroom, 2-bath ADU with a compacted pad and water and electrical service already at the site; owned solar; 400-amp electrical service; a 22kW propane standby generator with automatic transfer during utility outages; private well feeding a 10,000-gallon water storage tank; whole-house filtration
