About this property

Westside 6-acre modern luxury private beauty; stunning views; close to downtown

Private, peaceful, and super clean getaway oasis. This unique 6-acre property, set on top of a secluded bucolic ridge yet only a few minutes to downtown, is the perfect marriage of clean modern luxurious style with eclectic cool sensibilities. Come experience this slice of heaven.

Open the door to this stylish home and behold a chandelier of luminous handblown glass orbs illuminating over an open and airy entertainer's paradise home. A home renovated with sleek zinc counter tops and hip designer stones, balanced with touches of hand-stained wine bottle pallets from the Herman Story Winery and other unique reclaimed rustic wood.

Gather with your family or friends in the beautiful open living area: Lounge on the comfortable yet stylish oversized Restoration Hardware sofa while watching Direct TV/Netflix on the big screen TV embedded in the lime stones over the fireplace; Hang out on sleek bar chairs next to the cool zinc counters in the open and fully stocked kitchen while you chat with the chef of your party, who might want to whip up a tasty morsel using the powerful 6-burner wolf range; Lounge at the oversized rustic wooden dining table built for 12; Grab a glass from the most beautiful bar you will encounter in Paso; Oh, and, unwind!

Choose your bedroom from two oversized master suites or a chic third bedroom, decorated with luxurious pillow-top designer beds and each with its own bathrooms. Check out the sleek bathrooms with cool tiles and rustic wood, stocked with plenty of fluffy white towels and upscale toiletries.

Take your glass of wine and stroll outside through any number of the french doors positioned throughout this home. Exhale and leave your city angst behind as you take in the breathtaking views of Paso Robles, views that include rolling hills with almond trees and peaks of vines on one side juxtaposed next to sweeping views of the city on another side. As the sun begins to set, you will be challenged to decide where you should sit to enjoy the awesome views of the bright city lights intermingled with the emerald greens of the rolling hills. Perhaps you will choose to lounge around the chic outdoor sofa, slip into a chair at the 12 ft. long teak outdoor dining table, grab an adirondack chair around the fire-pit, or stretch out under the massive oak tree in adirondack loungers, or stroll over to numerous secluded sitting areas located throughout the grounds.

Hard to leave such a fabulous property, right? No worries. Plenty to do right here. Turn up the grill on the gas BBQ or fire up some fragrant wood in the commercial-sized Santa Maria grill, throw on some grass-fed ribeye steaks and sausages from a local butcher for a mouth-watering dinner in true Paso Robles style. Want some activity? Play petanque or bocci ball in the ball court, throw some horse shoes, play corn hole, feed your inner child and swirl around with a hoola hoop, lounge in the Jacuzzi, then relax sitting around the fire pit while you contemplate the wineries to visit tomorrow.

Welcome to Illumination Ridge - a perfect marriage of outdoor and indoor living at its stylish best.

Stunning property

The house is just as pictured, except the pictures cannot capture just how gorgeous the view is! We spent most of the time outside admiring it. Just beware that whatever you planned on doing while there, you may skip just to get back in time to sit in the hot tub with a glass of wine and admire the view. :). Host was great and sent so many recommendations. The house was perfect! It's about a mile walk to town but there is a big hill leading up to house.

March Paso Trip

Great house for 3 couples during a wine tasting weekend. Kitchen was clean and very well stocked. Beds were super comfortable. We didn't have enough time to enjoy the backyard, but next time we'll arrange to have an afternoon drinking wine and playing bocce in the beautiful backyard.

Great experience!

We had 8 adults stay here and couldn’t have asked for a better experience. The house and property were beautiful, making for great mornings by the fire and dinners outside. We loved all of the recommendations given by the host. We just needed more time to hit all of the great wineries and restaurants in Paso!

Wonderful family celebration

Six of us met in Paso to celebrate two birthdays and found this property to be perfect in every way. The home was spacious, clean, well equipped indoors and out with stunning views. Quail, bunnies, hummingbirds and lizards visited while we shared morning coffee outdoors, and the view of stars from the hot tub at night was spectacular. Our family loved that each couple had their own bedroom and bath so we had privacy yet the open living room/kitchen/dining room space allowed us the opportunity to visit. Miwon is the perfect host, by the way, responding promptly to every email and providing a well curated list of restaurants and activities in the Paso area. Five stars and six thumbs up from all of us!

A Beautiful Stay

Perfect for three couples who wish to enjoy everything the Paso Robles area has to offer. One of the most comfortable, clean and well provisioned homes I’ve stayed. Everything from a gorgeous, open kitchen concept to outdoor bbq to bocce ball, this sparking-clean home allowed for special conversations around the outdoor fire pit with a scenic overlook of the downtown lights. A beautiful stay!

Hilltop Location with Great Views!

Overall this is one of the cleanest VRBO properties I have stayed in. We were 3 couples so the lay out worked fantastic. The house was fully equipped inside and out with the exception the spa although clean, all the jets did not work and were old so were not as strong as desired. We all loved the decor and thoroughly enjoyed the outside amenities. We used the bocce ball court, and cornhole. There were horseshoes too and a Firepit. The views are incredible. We would definitely rent this again. The host is so organized and provides incredible detail along with a boat load of info on things to do in the area. We will be back and would highly recommend to others. Such a fun area to visit!

Great location for exploring wine country

This was the perfect location for exploring wine country and Paso dining in the evenings. We really enjoyed the view of downtown Paso from the hot tub. I wasn’t able to tell from the pics, but the hot tub is only a short walk from the house. We were traveling with one other couple and we enjoyed having two large master suites on opposite ends of the house. It was perfect for having our privacy but then being able to socialize together in the large kitchen, dining, and living area. Would definitely stay here again!

Sweet spot

We had a wonderful time. Spacious and the house had everything you might want of the creature comforts of home. Miwon was an absolute gem and full of great suggestions of where to dine, places to visit. We had rain so we leaned into indoor amenities. Super cozy and clean! We hope to return again. P.S. Bouna Tavola in downtown Paso was by far the best meal we had on our entire trip which included delicious stops in Santa Barbara. Outstanding!

About the host

Hosted by Miwon Halt

Host profile image
Mom. Wife. Lawyer. Entrepreneur. Mediator. Soccer Mom. Would-Be-Designer. Passionate about family, traveling, our vacation home in Paso, the town of Paso, wine, food, designing and tennis! We used to live in Southern California, and fell in love with Paso Robles during our many trips up here wine tasting. We looked for the perfect location for over 2 years. It took us nearly a year to renovate every corner of this property to make it our own. We believe this property is the perfect blend of clean modern contemporary sensibilities balanced with cool eclectic sensibilities. We love this place; it is our slice of heaven. We now share it with you.

Why they chose this property

We are passionate about Paso Robles!

Paso is the fastest growing wine region in California, with over 200 wineries. Paso is regularly voted one of the best towns to move to, to visit, to live in, etc. Paso regularly makes top ten lists for having the happiest residents and great quality of life. Paso is also ideally situated: It's the midway point between Los Angeles and San Francisco; It's 20 minutes away from the beaches of Cambria and Morro Bay; It's only 45 miles to Hearst Castle. Paso is geographically beautiful: It is nestled in the rolling foothills of the Central Coast's Santa Lucia Mountains; Its landscape is dotted with majestic oak trees and untouched bucolic natural beauty; And, cows, horses and sheep roam the hills grazing on grass, the way Mother Nature intended things to be. Paso is also sophisticated. You will find numerous awesome restaurants, many of them equal to or better than what you'd expect to encounter in the big cities of Los Angeles or San Francisco. These are all the reasons why we initially loved visiting Paso. But those aren't the reasons why we decided to buy a house in Paso.

Here is what truly captured our hearts: Paso is authentic. Paso is the real deal. That nostalgic California - the one that people moved out West for way back when, in pursuit of the American Dream - the one that's really hard to find let alone dream about in Los Angeles, San Francisco, or even Napa - well, that California still exists, right here in Paso. As one young winemaker told us, Paso is a place where a person of modest means can come with nothing but hard labor, but with enough passion and hard work, you can build from ground up into something special. Paso is a special place where passion exists, hard work exists, helping each other exists. We hope you will come visit and experience this for yourself.

What makes this property unique

Six acres of serene privacy, yet literally only half a mile to town. Stunning views of orchards and vines on one side, with city lights on another side. Ideal location with the best views in Paso - bar none! Beautifully remodeled with modern, luxury and cool rustic details. No expenses spared. Plenty of everything provided - free nespresso coffee pods, our own private label olive oil sample, bottle of quality Paso local wine, plenty of extra linens and towels. All toiletries provided, with hairdryers in each of the 3 bathrooms. Like staying at a luxury hotel, except you get your own fully stocked large kitchen and you can hang out with friends/family in all the beautiful common areas inside and outside.
