Back on the California open market as winter transitions to spring is Pavoreal, the far-flung retreat of actor John Wayne. The property — which encompasses 2,000 acres in the Riverside County city of Hemet — is currently tagged at $12 million. It last listed in 2020, priced at $8 million.
The residence on the property is modest: a simple, rustic ranch house with three bedrooms and three baths that might stylistically slot solidly in the hitherto unknown category of ‘contemporary cowboy monastic’ in the unlikely event that it should ever be established. Interior spaces include a common area with tile floor, stucco walls and ceiling, and a few sash windows. A lever-action rifle hangs on the wall.
