Relaxing Ranch Retreat w/ Sauna, Wading Pool & Game Room
Escape to this spacious ranch-style home surrounded by nature in the peaceful hills of El Cajon. Set among fruit trees, blooming gardens, and open skies, this single-story retreat offers everything you need for relaxation and connection.
Start your day with yoga in the wellness room, unwind in the indoor sauna, or dip your feet in the wading pool as the sun sets behind the hills. Gather by the fire pit under the stars, or enjoy a friendly match in the game room featuring air hockey and a basketball game.
In the bright sunroom, you’ll find a billiard/ping-pong combo table and a spacious outdoor dining area perfect for meals and laughter with loved ones. Each bedroom offers beauty and comfort, with one king bed and five queen beds to accommodate everyone with ease.
Because the home is single-level with no stairs, it’s ideal for families with young children or elderly guests. Whether for a family getaway or a team wellness retreat, this home is a perfect blend of space, comfort, and nature — a peaceful sanctuary just minutes from San Diego.
