Welcome to a truly extraordinary and storied estate tucked into the highly sought-after Lake Hodges community, with timeless architecture, rich local history, and an unforgettable setting.
Originally built in 1935 by renowned author Harold Bell Wright and later owned by Reuben H. Fleet, this remarkable single-level farmhouse estate is steeped in character and legacy while offering the comforts, design, and amenities today’s buyers crave. Thoughtfully and extensively remodeled in 2017, with additional enhancements to the woodworking in the carriage house and office completed in 2020, the property has been carefully curated to honor its heritage while elevating it for modern living.
Set behind a gated entrance and approached by a long, private, tree-lined driveway, the home immediately evokes a sense of arrival. The setting is serene, secluded, and deeply special—offering the feeling of a private countryside retreat while remaining just minutes from I-15, nearby dining, shopping, and everyday conveniences. Spanning approximately 4,448 square feet (plus the additional 400 square feet in the carriage house), the residence features 5 bedrooms and 4.5 baths, all thoughtfully arranged on a single level to create a layout that is both expansive and easy to live in. Throughout the home, classic farmhouse charm is paired with refined finishes and warm, inviting spaces designed for both entertaining and everyday comfort.
Outdoors, the estate unfolds into a setting that is both beautiful and incredibly usable. The resort-style saltwater pool creates a true retreat-like atmosphere, complemented by a gorgeous poolside cabana with an outdoor kitchen and dedicated entertaining space—perfect for effortless hosting and relaxed gatherings.
This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a historic home in one of North County’s most sought-after and special communities—where privacy, character, and connection come together in a way that is truly rare.
