FEAST ON PANORAMIC VIEWS from every room of Rancho Jirafas, a 7.3-acre estate located near the highest point in Bonsall.  This private, gated property features a professionally managed, high-yield, 700-plus Haas avocado grove along with nearly 40 family fruit trees, ranging from several different varieties of citrus to exotic tropical fruits.  An efficient irrigation system that meets new more stringent water-use guidelines serves the grove and low-maintenance garden that surrounds the 3100-sq.ft. home and detached two-car garage/shop.  Watch incredible sunsets from the shaded patio area and pool or spa, all of which face west to provide exceptional views of the San Luis Rey River Valley out toward the Pacific coast from Carlsbad up to Oceanside. 

Inside the well-insulated Spanish-Mediterranean styled home, you’ll find three spacious bedrooms, a large office/library, three full baths and a well-appointed and recently remodeled gourmet kitchen.  Tasteful décor abounds from the moment you enter the tile entry through Rancho Jirafas’ iron, glass and hand carved cedar front door.  High ceilings give atmosphere and charm to the open and inviting living and dining rooms, which boast the same views as from the pool area.  A wet bar serves guests in the living room; and a soaring fireplace with Moorish touches brings the Spanish Mediterranean look of the exterior inside.  Recent additions to the home include a state-of-the-art ADT security system, low energy tank-less hot water unit, satellite TV/Internet installation and Davis Vantage Pro wireless weather station.  Located with easy access to Interstate 15, Rancho Jirafas offers an easy commute south toward downtown San Diego, west to the beaches and north into Orange and Riverside counties.
