968 Saddlehorn Place

This is not your average Shadow Run home. Perched at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac with commanding curb appeal and elevated frontage, 968 Saddlehorn is arguably the finest property in the tract--where homes rarely turn over, and none come to market quite like this. Set in one of Ventura County's fastest-growing… neighborhoods, this beautifully updated residence is walking distance to Banyan Elementary (9/10), Banyan Park, and the Rancho Sierra Vista/Satwiwa trail system with direct access to Mount Boney and the Pacific. Plus, it's just 15 minutes to the beach--offering a rare blend of top-tier schools, trail access, and indoor-outdoor living with no HOA. Inside, you'll find a wide-open floorplan with great flow and thoughtful separation between living zones. Custom woodwork is featured throughout, including wainscoting, crown molding, built-ins, reading nooks, and custom fireplace trim--all crafted by a Malibu woodworker. The kitchen has been updated with new GE Profile appliances, a Jenn-Air double oven, stone countertops, and a cozy built-in breakfast nook with storage. The bathrooms have been fully remodeled with marble vanities, designer finishes, and custom tile and stone work. Upstairs, the 510 SF primary suite includes a sitting area perfect for an office or gym, a large walk-in closet with built-ins, and a spa-style bath with soaking tub. The oversized three-car garage offers natural light and plenty of storage. Major system updates include Andersen dual-pane windows, a 60-year concrete tile roof, upgraded HVAC and ducting, and a newer water heater. The front and back yards have been professionally landscaped with mature trees, privacy fencing, low-drip irrigation, extensive lighting, and a custom wood entry gate. Step through the French sliders into a backyard built for entertaining--complete with a sparkling pool and spa, fire pit, fruit trees, and BBQ area with Dutch door access. A peaceful sitting swing in the front yard offers dramatic views of Boney Mountain, and a side patio off the kitchen (rare for this model) creates a true second outdoor living room. Shadow Run is one of Newbury Park's most desirable pockets, known for its larger lots, close-knit feel, and unbeatable access to schools, trails, shopping, and the 101. Homes like this don't come around often--and this one checks every box. Read More
