About This Home
As of December 2021Variance granted Detached. An opportunity that comes along only once in every several generations. This is the remaining & most treasured 11 acres of Fallbrook’s historic & appropriately named Rancho de Mil Sorpresas (“Ranch of a Thousand Surprises”) or, since being acquired by the current family in 1946, Nicola Ranch. This magical, storybook oasis includes a main house, a treehouse, a carriage house (caretaker’s residence), a garden cottage, an office & workshop building, a detached 4 car garage, a sweeping lawn, a picturesque pond, multiple natural springs, a well, & a permitted & graded pad & its installed septic. See Supplemental Remarks. Please see descriptions accompanying all photos for details regarding each home and structure on the property. Tucked among lush, spring-fed canyons & vegetation, privacy abounds all over this dreamlike property. The extraordinary treehouse sits against a backdrop of catalpa trees & is one of a kind with its custom coral fireplace, kitchen, living room, dining room, full bathroom, & bridge to the terrace with outdoor sitting area, pizza/bread oven, & grill. A 12 foot deep natural spring w/ pump house supplies water to all homes. The north portion of the property is a fantasy brought to life & the setting for over 60 previous weddings with its scenic & expansive lawn, stunning pond, views of Rock Mountain, & charming tractor shed. A separate well provides water to landscaping on this side. The graded pad & its installed septic system on the north side are fully permitted. From its classic stone retaining walls & the tree-covered road leading to the pond, to the shadows & sunlight that rotate throughout each day, this piece of paradise feels a world away yet is just a short drive to anything you need. Live in the main house or tree house while you design your dream home. Pursue your potential wedding/events venue or retreat, or move into the perfect setup for multi-generational living or guests. So many possibilities with one consistent theme: this remarkable property will always provide the opportunity to slow down time, form memories, & allow nature, in its most perfect forms, to captivate all who are fortunate enough to come here.
