13600 Fairlane Road

Price reduced on 8/29! Welcome to 13600 Fairlane Road, your private and gated country retreat located in the coveted Sherwood Heights neighborhood just inside Valley Center. Nestled on a prime, end-of-cul-sac parcel spanning 1.29 acres, this lovingly-maintained home is powered by 22 Tesla solar panels and features 3 bedrooms, 2.5 baths, and a really spacious bonus room with its own dedicated entrance and kitchenette area. The 2,756 square foot home has plenty of room to spread out for comfortable living, especially with the large bedroom and en suite bath on the lower level. You will absolutely love the enormous, covered balcony which runs the length of the home and is accessible from sliding glass doors in the main bedroom, formal dining room and living room. The vibe one gets when entering this lovely property is one of country charm with a flair for entertaining. The main areas are truly oversized and flow from the kitchen with newer stainless steel appliances, a center island, and a passthrough space convenient for passing food and drinks to those gathered in the living room. The downstairs bedroom with en suite bath is conveniently located next to a spacious mud room with laundry and a walk-in pantry with wine storage. The home is surrounded by mature avocado and citrus trees which offer produce and will save you trips to the store. Imagine stepping outside and picking fresh fruit and vegetables! There are two apricot trees, orange and grapefruit trees, a mandarin orange tree, kumquats, persimmon, apple, pomegranates, even olives and blackberries. Another nice feature of this home is what the owner calls "The Secret Garden" which is a graceful outdoor retreat area with gravel base and covered patio seating area. What a perfect way to start the morning with birds singing in the many large oak trees around you, or looking up at the stars at night, something truly special from Valley Center which is tucked away from the light pollution common in surrounding cities. On cooler evenings, throw some wood into the freestanding pot belly fireplace and cozy up under the gorgeous vaulted ceilings with rich wood beams. Hurry, as this home is expected to sell quickly.
