Imagine coming home to your own private Mediterranean estate, surrounded by the Cleveland National Forest, with sweeping views of Lake Elsinore and the Temescal Valley. Welcome to Villa Serrano, a remarkable 3.3-acre retreat tucked inside Rancho Capistrano, a private gated equestrian community where privacy, natural beauty, and wide-open spaces come together. Originally designed and built by Andrew Salat, this 4,299-square-foot estate offers five spacious bedrooms, the potential for a sixth, four bathrooms, and a lifestyle that's becoming increasingly difficult to find in Southern California. At the heart of the home is an extraordinary 1,250-square-foot great room with soaring ceilings, a dramatic granite fireplace, and a floating upper-level library that gives the space a character all its own. Expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape, while warm Mediterranean architecture and thoughtful upgrades create an inviting atmosphere for everyday living and unforgettable gatherings. The kitchen was designed for those who love to cook and entertain, featuring a 10-burner cooking setup, double ovens, a wine refrigerator, and beautiful views that make even an ordinary morning feel special. But what truly sets Villa Serrano apart is everything waiting beyond its doors. Picture spe
