The property has potential for residential development but carries entitlements for a small winery and events, and is one of very few in San Diego County. This Valley Center location has a County Administrative Permit and approved Septic Permit on file, and spans approximately 7 acres with gentle slopes, open view corridors, and a rural setting that supports hospitality and agritourism. Portions of the site are already planted, providing immediate vineyard character and framing future guest areas....The property has potential for residential development but carries entitlements for a small winery and events, and is one of very few in San Diego County. This Valley Center location has a County Administrative Permit and approved Septic Permit on file, and spans approximately 7 acres with gentle slopes, open view corridors, and a rural setting that supports hospitality and agritourism. Portions of the site are already planted, providing immediate vineyard character and framing future guest areas. Approved plans provide a path to a tasting room, winemaking, and flexible outdoor gathering spaces suitable for weddings, private events, and daily visitation. Sized for an intimate guest experience and an efficient operational footprint that aligns with local demand. Capacity can be increased further with road improvements. The entitlement package includes the administrative permit, grading and site plans, construction drawings, elevations, and prior supporting cost estimates. A complete diligence set can be shared with an NDA. The land is offered for sale, and the ideal buyer will complete the approved project, partner with current ownership on future operations, or benefit from possible ownership financing, all  for a qualified buyer with terms and structure to be negotiated. The property holds a permit allowing hosted events, with ample parking. The entitlements were all approved before the new “vehicle miles traveled” standard took effect. With future road improvements, the number of permitted events may be significantly increased. The event facility design features spaces with amenities to accommodate both indoor and outdoor gatherings, including flexible areas for large groups, multiple restrooms, and infrastructure designed to support seamless operations. Food service is permitted through a County Health–approved caterer. Additionally, one mobile food facility or food truck may be allowed on the winery premises during events to serve guests. The property’s current septic approval supports current use and possible expansion with county health department approval. The property is approved for wine production of up to 120,000 gallons annually with additional permits from the Regional Water Quality Control Board (RWQCB) and the Alcoholic Beverage Control (ABC).  Please inquire for further information.
