**THE CASTLE HOUSE OF APPLE VALLEY**
A One-of-a-Kind Storybook Estate Where Architecture, Romance, and Desert Majesty Converge
Presenting a rare and historic gem, affectionately known as “The Castle House of Apple Valley,” this truly One-Of-A-Kind Residence is a timeless architectural treasure blending Spanish, Mediterranean, Tudor, and Craftsman influences into a home that feels both grand and warmly inviting.
From the moment you arrive, the home enchants. Step inside to discover soaring 25-foot Spanish-style textured ceilings that create a sense of drama and wonder, while natural light pours through expansive windows framing Breathtaking Panoramic Desert Views. Two elegant living rooms anchor the heart of the home, each graced with a massive floor-to-ceiling brick and rock fireplace, offering warmth, romance, and unforgettable gathering spaces.
Spanning 3,025 square feet, this thoughtfully designed estate offers Five Spacious Bedrooms And 2.5 Baths, including a Charming Private Casita with its own entrance, mini bar, and stunning views—perfect for guests, extended family, or creative living arrangements. A beautifully appointed office with custom oak cabinetry easily converts to an additional bedroom, adding versatility without sacrificing character.
The primary suite is a serene retreat, featuring generous closets, rich oak cabinetry, and a spa-like bathroom with double vanities, a separate shower, and a soaking bathtub overlooking the peaceful, private backyard space designed for quiet reflection and rest.
Outdoors, the romance continues. A large covered patio invites evenings of celebration or tranquil stargazing, while the whimsical near-new gingerbread-style shed adds charm and character. The property also features a three-car garage, abundant RV and boat parking, and a graceful circular driveway adorned with majestic cement lions, creating unforgettable castle-like curb appeal.
Set on a 24,800-square-foot lot, this estate offers both privacy and possibility, with ample space to build an ADU if desired. Ideally located near Jess Ranch Marketplace, St. Mary’s Hospital, Sitting Bull Academy, and highly regarded Apple Valley schools, the home balances serenity with everyday convenience.
Preserved with care, minimal upgrades have been intentionally made to honor and protect the home’s original character and historical beauty, making it ideal for the discerning buyer who values authenticity, craftsmanship, and timeless design.

What the owner loves about this home
"What I LOVE most about this home is that it is Truly One of a Kind—a RARE Castle-Style residence with a Soul, History, and Architectural presence that simply cannot be replicated today. From the moment you arrive, the home feels Majestic yet Warm, offering a sense of Privacy, Peace, and Timeless BEAUTY.
The soaring Spanish-style ceilings, massive dual fireplaces, and handcrafted details give the home a romantic Old-World character that newer builds just don’t have. Every room feels intentional and grand, yet inviting—perfect for quiet reflection, family gatherings, or entertaining on a larger scale.
I love that the home has been carefully preserved in its original form, allowing the next owner the freedom to enhance it at their own pace while honoring its historic charm. The layout offers flexibility, privacy, and incredible views, making it ideal for multi-generational living, creative retreat, or a forever home with personality and presence.
This is not a cookie-cutter house—it’s a statement home, a sanctuary, and a rare Apple Valley icon that leaves a lasting impression on everyone who visits."
