Property Description
THE JEWEL OF THE SOUTH BAY WITH FOREVER VIEWS. Welcome to one of the most exquisite colonial haciendas in San Diego—an extraordinary estate where history, craftsmanship, and elegance converge. Nestled in the serene hills of Bonita California, this Spanish Colonial masterpiece is a living tribute to timeless design and sophisticated living. From the moment you pass through the gates, you will be welcomed by the resort-style luxury of this breathtaking residence. This architectural beauty was designed and built in 1930 by Albert Treganza—celebrated for his work on iconic San Diego landmarks such as Balboa Park’s Spanish Village, the First National Bank, and San Diego’s historic Downtown Police Headquarters—all which are now treasured historic sites. Originally commissioned by Mr. Albert Wheeler the home was built with extraordinary attention to detail and durability. Constructed using old-growth timber, hand-plastered walls, and artisanal finishes, it retains original elements including a BELL CO. Intercom and phone system. The result is a home that exudes character, strength, and heritage. Unrivaled Privacy & Panoramic Views. Located on the top of your own private hill with endless opportunities. Enjoy complete privacy and breathtaking 360° panoramic views of Bonita and its gorgeous sunrises and sunsets – all just 20 minutes to beaches, downtown, and U.S.-Mexico Border. Two golf courses nearby. This is more than a home- it’s a legacy. A rare opportunity to own a piece of San Diego’s architectural history and write the next chapter of a Timeless Estate.
