On Crown Hill Ranch, their daily work is a quiet, powerful commitment to living in harmony with nature. is a unique property located in hills of Escondido consisting of 2 parcels of land for a total of 157 acres. Upon entering the private gates you are immediately submerged in nature and peace. No road noise or neighborhood traffic to be heard. Comepletely off grid.

The well maintained roads wind you down to the primary residence where you will catch your first glimpse of the 23,000 acre Rancho Guejito preserve, one of the last existing Ranchos in California. As you continue on through the property you will also stumble upon the tucked away yoga platform and charming tree house. The treehouse is a custom structure perched in the tree tops of a large Oak. The detached office is home to Nani Pua Skin Care. With miles of trails, the land is prime for horse back riding and highly equestrian friendly.

At the end of a long day, we soak in the outdoor copper tub overlooking Rancho Guejito. While the property is fully off the grid with solar and wind turbine power as well as 4 wells throughout,
