About This Property
KING OF THE MOUNTAIN! A truly rare opportunity in the scenic Buena Creek hills of Vista. Perched at the top of a quiet cul-de-sac, this approximately 2.79-acre property offers exceptional privacy, commanding elevation and sweeping panoramic views in nearly every direction. It is the kind of setting that is increasingly difficult to find in North County: acreage, seclusion, views and the freedom to create something genuinely special. Much of the work has already been done. The property includes approved plans for an approximately 3,300 SF custom residence plus a separate 1,200 SF ADU, giving the next owner an extraordinary head start toward creating a private family compound, multigenerational estate or luxury hilltop retreat. View supplemental docs for property profile and allowed uses. Zoned A70 Limited Agricultural, the property offers possibilities extending well beyond the residence itself. Imagine surrounding your home with an avocado, citrus or specialty fruit grove, vineyard, gardens or other horticultural uses, creating a true estate environment where the land becomes part of the lifestyle. The zoning report identifies family residential, horticulture, tree crops and row and field crops among uses permitted by right, along with certain limited agricultural processing uses. For buyers with an even larger vision, the A70 designation may provide additional opportunities for agricultural, residential, recreational or specialty uses, subject to applicable permits and County approval. The Property ID report identifies potential Conditional Use Permit categories including group residential/group care, childcare, clinic services, agricultural and horticultural sales, and outdoor participant sports and recreation, opening the door to a number of creative concepts for the right buyer. Whether envisioned as a private custom estate, multigenerational compound, grove property, vineyard-inspired retreat or legacy homesite, the combination of hilltop privacy, panoramic views, acreage, approved house and ADU plans, and flexible agricultural zoning makes this an exceptionally difficult property to duplicate. Come build above it all.
