Home of the Week: Feeling groovy in Escondido’s wide-open spaces
One need only cross the threshold and step onto the leather floors of this sprawling home to be transported back to 1960. The Midcentury Modern estate in Escondido’s bucolic Hidden Meadows area is awash with original details. A central open-air atrium, wood built-ins and a copper-hooded fireplace add to the ambience.
The nearly 40 boulder-strewn acres take in panoramic views and offer multi-use options for vineyards, an equestrian facility and farming.
