Property Description
Welcome to 44240 La Cruz Drive — a private, move-in-ready estate tucked away in the prestigious hills of De Luz. Set on nearly five acres with sweeping panoramic views, this exceptional property offers a rare sense of seclusion and tranquility just minutes from town. Surrounded by natural hillside landscape and mature groves, the setting feels worlds away while remaining conveniently close to Temecula’s wineries, dining, shopping, and top-rated schools. Designed for comfortable everyday living, the home features a highly desirable main-floor primary suite along with two additional en-suite guest bedrooms. Thoughtfully updated throughout, the interior showcases luxury vinyl plank flooring, fresh two-tone paint, designer finishes, and an open-concept layout filled with natural light. The remodeled kitchen is the heart of the home, complete with quartz countertops, sleek European-style cabinetry, GE Profile appliances, and an oversized island that flows seamlessly into the spacious family room. Step outside to your private resort-style backyard where the pool and spa are perfectly positioned to capture breathtaking hillside and sunset views. Whether entertaining guests or enjoying a quiet evening at home, the outdoor spaces offer peace, privacy, and a true retreat-like atmosphere. The property is enhanced by approximately 300 Hass avocado trees along with citrus, olive, fig, and apple trees, creating a picturesque grove setting with potential agricultural benefits. While the acreage is predominantly natural rolling terrain, it provides excellent privacy and scenic beauty, with additional lower-area space ideal for a potential ADU, workshop, extra garage, or small horse setup. Recent improvements include new pool plaster and decking, refreshed landscaping with artificial turf and drip irrigation, and a freshly sealed driveway. With low taxes, minimal HOA, and an unbeatable combination of privacy, views, and upgraded living, this De Luz estate delivers an incredible opportunity to enjoy the best of Temecula country living.
