The word “quinta” in Spanish translates to a country house, villa or estate. When the owners, Jason & Marcia Matthews, began building the home in the 1930s, the area was surrounded by grapefruit orchards. The word “mazatlan” has an ancient Indian translation in Mexico meaning “Land of the Deer.” Original image from Carol M. Highsmith’s America, Library of Congress collection.
