Description

Welcome to a place that feels like it’s sitting on top of the world—tucked away at the very end of Hillside Drive in the hidden community of Sleepy Hollow in Chino Hills. This hand-built 3-bed, 2-bath home sits on over 3 acres, surrounded by nature, quiet, and sweeping canyon views. If you’ve been searching for a home that feels like an escape the moment you arrive, this is it. The first thing you notice is the privacy—there are no visible neighbors. Just open land, fresh air, and the kind of stillness you don’t find in Southern California anymore. Stand at the top of the hill and you instantly understand why the owners describe this place as “indescribable.” The birds, the breeze, the silence—it's a rare kind of peace. Inside, the home was designed for easy living. The open-concept layout centers around a chef’s kitchen perfect for cooking, gathering, and hosting. There’s a walk-in pantry, spacious closets, and character everywhere you look—including handmade gargoyles tucked into the beams, a one-of-a-kind detail that gives the home its heart and story. Outside, there are multiple patios and gathering spaces that make the property feel even bigger than it already is. Sunrises, sunsets, dinners outside, stargazing—this home was made for enjoying the outdoors. Fruit trees (avocado, lemon, orange, and tangerine) are scattered around the property, giving it a naturally warm, lived-in feel. For horse lovers or anyone dreaming of space, the property is zoned for up to 14 horses. It’s the perfect setup for creating a private equestrian estate, a weekend getaway, or a peaceful full-time sanctuary. There’s also an ideal spot to add a second home or guest house. And while you feel worlds away, you’re actually located right where California’s Orange, San Bernardino, and Los Angeles counties meet—close to everything, but tucked into a setting most people don’t even know exists. If you're craving privacy, views, land, and a home with soul—not just another house—this hilltop retreat is something you need to experience in person.
