California: Victor Fleming Estate and Moraga Vineyard for Sale
Mar 8, 2013
(Edgeonthenet) - Only in California will you find an artisan vineyard and winery hidden in the heart of one of the wealthiest neighborhoods known for attracting film stars and other industry moguls. Bel Air is known for its astounding mansions overlooking the Pacific and the famous Bel Air Country Club Golf Course.
The 13-acre Moraga Estate was owned and built by the Hollywood director Victor Fleming, best known for all-time movie favorites "Gone With the Wind" and "The Wizard of Oz." He created the estate in 1930 as a horse ranch with an elegant main residence befitting a man of his stature and wealth.
The estate remained a horse ranch until Tom and Ruth Jones bought the property in 1959. According to the history of Moraga, Tom Jones was an aeronautical engineer and CEO of Northrop Corporation for 30 years before retiring in 1989. In his executive capacity, he and Ruth traveled the world.
