California architecture & red tile roofs give the compound bona fide charm. Grassy lawns surround the main residence, while the citrus orchard and numerous mature fruit trees highlight the grounds. Lantana, agave, palms, oaks, sycamores and colorful plantings bring texture & life to the setting, all framed by cinematic mountain views. Mature landscaping and gated entry create a wonderful sense of privacy throughout the compound.
