This large house was built in the early 1900's. It is located on top of a small hill near Interstate 5, along Ortega Highway or CA Route 74. The only way to get to it is from a small shopping center, where the driveway leads up to a gate and, by today's standards and location, reveals a mansion. The house is private, but you can see it from the gate and perimeter. It has the classic Spanish style, which matches its location with the nearby San Juan Capistrano Mission.
