The Orchard & Gardens
What truly sets this property apart is its extraordinary outdoor transformation. Since 2021, the backyard has been reimagined into a private hillside orchard and terraced garden system — a working farm on over half an acre in the heart of Encino Hills, framed by breathtaking panoramic views.
Epic Hillside Views
The east-facing hillside offers sweeping panoramic views that define the property. The 90-jet spa is positioned at the edge of the backyard to take full advantage of the vista — an unmatched setting for morning coffee or evening relaxation.
Terraced Vegetable Garden
A custom pipe-and-board terracing system transforms the hillside into five irrigated planter rows, each approximately 3 feet wide and 100 feet long. The first row extends the usable backyard, while the remaining five tiers provide over 1,500 square feet of growing space. The east-facing exposure delivers ideal morning sun — a gardener's dream.
- Smart Rachio irrigation timer with grid watering system
- Chicken wire installed beneath beds for gopher control
- Professional turf installed throughout the flat yard
- 4 raised front yard planters for daily vegetables — lettuce, tomatoes, kale, and more
120+ Fruit Trees & Plants
Spread throughout the property, over 120 fruit trees and plants have been installed — many of them rare and exotic varieties — each with a sub-irrigation device for efficient root-level watering. The avocado trees alone are already producing over 100 avocados per year, a number that will grow as the trees mature.
