A gardener's delight, 13 acres provide a spring and a well, extensive fencing, garden potential, and majestic mature redwoods. The currently leased vineyard, part of the original Split Rail Vineyard, produces award-winning Chardonnay and Pinot Noir featured in Food & Wine and Decanter magazines. An automatic generator adds peace of mind.
Property is moderate renovation needed.
Built in 1970, the property is over 50 years old but remains fully functional and livable with updated systems like central HVAC, double-pane windows, and a generator. However, the interior is highly dated with 1970s-style terracotta tile, wood paneling, and vintage fixtures that require cosmetic modernization.
The property has a large lot size, which is more than 4 times of its living area. lot size in square feet = 562795, living area = 1444.
The property boasts breathtaking panoramic views of the Monterey Bay coastline and surrounding vineyards from a private, 13-acre hilltop location.
Includes a leased vineyard producing award-winning Chardonnay and Pinot Noir, offering both agricultural prestige and potential for passive income.
The 1970s hexagon dome structure is highly unique and may not appeal to buyers seeking traditional or contemporary luxury aesthetics.
At 1,444 square feet, the home's interior footprint is relatively small for a three-bedroom residence on a large 13-acre estate.
