Set back from the street and boldly situated atop the hills of North Tustin, this historic Mediterranean Revival estate stands as a timeless masterpiece. Located in the heart of prestigious Lemon Heights, the privately gated enclave spans two meticulously landscaped parcels totaling 2.4 acres.
Built in the early 1930s, the site was thoughtfully chosen for its summit location, offering unobstructed panoramic vistas—from Catalina Island and Palos Verdes in one direction to serene treetop, pastoral, and mountain views in the other. Rare for a hilltop property, the estate also features expansive, flat grassy areas, creating the ideal balance between dramatic views and usable outdoor space. Under the care of a single family for nearly 30 years, the property has been meticulously maintained and thoughtfully upgraded over time.
The 6,500-square-foot main residence is complemented by a guest house, a carriage house with an attached garage, a recreation center, an additional standalone two-car garage, and an expansive outdoor entertaining veranda spanning over 1,000 square feet. Inside the main home, extraordinary craftsmanship is on full display. Soaring ceilings, smooth stucco walls, antique walnut doors, windows, and flooring, and stone-carved European mantels evoke a sense of old-world elegance rarely seen today.
Step through the rear portico and discover a central fountain, a circular motor court, and gardens designed for exploration. The horizon pool and spa are perfectly positioned for sunset views over Catalina by day and dazzling city lights by night. Adding to the property's uniqueness is a beautifully landscaped, undeveloped one-acre California-style garden—a treasured and rare feature that further enhances this extraordinary estate. The lower lot is perfect for your very own vineyard.
This estate is enveloped by a verdant canopy comprising over 90 mature trees exceeding 50 feet in height, 45 trees ranging between 30 to 50 feet, and dozens more of varying sizes. This extensive arboreal collection not only provides privacy and shade but also contributes to the property's serene ambiance and ecological value.
