Horse property in Orange Park Acres

Orange Park Acres home Orange Park Acres may very well be the top equestrian community in Orange County. It was founded in 1928 as the official equestrian destination of Orange County, which is what the community prides itself on today. Much of that historical heritage has been preserved with the lack of sidewalks and street lights, and the abundance of fenced horse trails. This area includes modest horse properties, lots, land, and lavish equestrian estates at prices that are considered very reasonable. Here you will find many homes with large acreage or lots lined with California Live Oaks. Many of the homes have great views or are adjacent to horse trails and county parks. This is your chance to own an equestrian home or property in an area that has a rural atmosphere, yet is minutes from shopping, restaurants, schools, etc. Orange Park acres allows up to 8 horses per acre of land. 

For buyers who wish buy a property in the community but board their horses elsewhere, Orange Park Acres offers several boarding facilities. If you are considering boarding your horse and would like listings of available homes in Orange Park Acres or any other equestrian community, please contact me.  Use the link below to find horse property in Orange Park Acres.

Horse property in Santiago Canyon (Trabuco, Modjeska, and Silverado canyons)

 

The Santiago Canyons of Trabuco, Silverado, and Modjeska Canyons offer wonderful opportunities to own horse property, starting at very reasonable prices. The rural setting and miles of trails are ideal for horse lovers. The lack of homeowner's associations in these areas means you have the freedom to board horses on even modest pieces of property. Many residents in the canyons have a small pipe corrals in their rear or on a small section of property in front of the home. Nearby Live Oak Canyon stable offers boarding facilities. Santiago Canyon Equestrian Center is another local boarding facility. Use the links below for Santiago Canyon homes and real estate.

Horse property in Newport Beach  

Horse properties in Newport Beach, CA Equestrian properties can be found in the West Bay and Santa Ana heights areas of Newport Beach. The Back-Bay area contains several riding trails. Although limited in the number and size of equestrian properties compared to neighboring areas, Newport Beach offers properties that are ocean close, with lot sizes that can facilitate equestrian stables, barns, arenas, tennis courts, or a pool.

 Horse property in North Tustin

North Tustin (Tustin Foothills) includes a few horse properties in the exclusive communities of Cowan Heights and Lemon Heights. There are a few properties that are equestrian zoned, but I believe most people trailer out in order to ride, because there are no riding trails here. .

 Horse properties in the Inland Empire

With the cost of Orange County horse properties becoming increasingly unaffordable for many home owners, I have added horse properties in the Inland Empire. This includes the cities and areas of Corona, Murrieta, Norco, Wildomar, Temecula, etc. The prices for homes and horse properties in these areas is very attractive and they are still within easy driving distance of Orange County.

 Rancho Carrillo - Just outside of OC and a great value!

Rancho Carrillo* is a little-known mountain community located off of the Ortega Highway near San Juan Capistrano. The community consists of 75 ranches, each with a custom home. Rancho Carrillo is an equestrian paradise. Many homes have lot sizes of 2 or more acres and they are available at a far more affordable price than comparable horse properties in Orange County. The community is accessed by entering a private gate off of the Ortega Highway a few miles outside of San Juan Capistrano. Once you enter the gate, you travel about 5 miles along a winding road until you reach the wooded plateau at Rancho Carrillo. Because it is located at a slightly higher altitude, you are greeted by an abundance of lush green fields and foliage.

Because there are only 75 ranches, homes in Rancho Carrillo come up for sale only occasionally. When they are listed in the MLS, some agents prefer to enter the listing within the city of San Juan Capistrano, but technically the community is just over the OC border into Riverside County. More likely, a home for sale will be listed in Riverside County in the region of "Ortega Mountain". If you have questions about the community or if you would like information on homes for sale, just call me at (949) 290-3263 or write to me at ron@ronforhomes.com

Nearly everyone here has horses and you can also keep other animals, like goats, pigs, chickens, etc. The price for a 2+ acre horse property is extremely affordable!  The web page for the association is below, as is a link for homes for sale.
