Description
A rare 160± acre holding of California backcountry for sale in San Diego County. This four-parcel Jacumba assemblage combines scale, a 40-foot-wide utility and road corridor, and the rugged freedom that estate, homestead, and recreational buyers come to the backcountry to find. 55 miles east of San Diego via I-8 to Old Hwy 80, the property sits in historic Jacumba Hot Springs, where open ground, big views, and real distance from the city are still possible. An established, graded route follows the 40-foot utility corridor into the northern acreage. Beyond it the land opens into a large L-shaped holding, with the southern and eastern parcels set farther back from the corridor. Granite boulder ridges rise across the property and frame unobstructed panoramic mountain and valley views toward Jacumba Peak and Northern Mexico. For a private estate, multigenerational compound, or serious recreational base, there is room here to build a real vision. S92 zoning supports agricultural and rural residential uses. Buyers can explore custom homes, off-grid solar, hiking and horseback trails, ATV routes, seasonal camping, RV use, or a private high-desert retreat. Four recorded parcels are offered together as one assemblage, creating flexibility that is difficult to replicate in a single large tract. Keep the full 160± acres as a family retreat, a recreational stronghold, or a long-term San Diego County land holding. At $518,000, the property is offered at ~$3,300 per acre for contiguous, roaded backcountry land of this scale. Jacumba's recreation corridor adds another layer to the setting, with nearby hunting country, dark skies, open desert terrain, and the mineral waters of the revitalized Jacumba Hot Springs Resort. Offered at $518,000 for the complete four-parcel assemblage. Contact listing agent for property maps and private showing instructions. Buyer and buyer's agent to independently verify acreage, boundaries, legal access, easements, road conditions, utilities, water, zoning, and permitted uses.
