V bližini San Juana Capistrana je naprodaj nepremičnina, ki je nekoč pripadala soustanovitelju podjetja Herbalife Dicku Marconiju. Ranč, ocenjen na približno 25 milijonov dolarjev, ponuja nenavadno izkušnjo bivanja – zjutraj lahko skozi okno opazujete zebre, antilope in želve, ki se sprehajajo po zasebni posesti.

Ranč Marconi se razprostira na nekaj manj kot 500 hektarjev in meji na naravni park, kar zagotavlja občutek popolne zasebnosti. Namesto klasičnega vrta ima  delujočo kmetijo z več kot 20.000 limonovci sorte eureka, okoli tisoč oljkami pistoia ter ekološko pridelanimi citrusi.

Luksuz v toskanskem slogu

Glavna rezidenca meri približno 460 kvadratnih metrov in je zasnovana v toskanskem slogu. Notranjost zaznamujejo obokani stropi, marmorne kopalnice in prostorne garderobe. Kuhinja z velikim marmornatim otokom dopolnjuje razkošen nabor prostorov, ki vključujejo tudi pisarno, atelje, sobo za meditacijo, vinski salon in telovadnico.

Na posesti so še kompleks bazenov, jezero, štirje ribniki ter ločene hiše za goste in osebje, kar dvigne  izkušnjo na najvišjo raven udobja.

Od skromnih začetkov do milijonov

Zgodba Dicka Marconija se je začela skromno – v Kalifornijo je prišel iz Indiane s komaj 500 dolarji v žepu. S podjetniško žilico je ustvaril bogastvo, poleg poslovnih uspehov  ga je zaznamovala tudi strast do avtomobilizma. Tekmoval je na dirkah in pri 57 letih postal najstarejši dirkač na grand prixu v Long Beachu.

Danes je njegova avtomobilska zbirka na ogled v muzeju, njegov legendarni ranč pa čaka na novega lastnika. Ostaja vprašanje, kdo si lahko privošči takšno razkošje in komu ne bodo odveč vsakodnevni sosedje iz živalskega sveta.
