Check out the longtime home of Taco Bell founder on market at $5.9 million
The longtime San Diego area home of late Taco Bell founder Glen Bell is back on the market for $5.995 million.

The main house, a contemporary Santa Fe style home built on 3.6 acres in 1982, contains a great room, formal living and dining rooms, five bedrooms, and six and a half bathrooms over 7,444 square feet of livng space. Outside, there is a 25-meter infinity-edge swimming pool with a marble waterfall flowing into a children’s pool below and a spa.
The second home on the property, a Spanish colonial, has four bedrooms and three bathrooms on 3.12 acres. Another pool and spa are found here, as well as views of the property and orchards.
Bob Hunsaker and Kimberly Cucinella of Krueger Realty hold the listing.
Bell, who was born in Southern California, popularized Mexican fast food in the late 1950s. He died in 2010 at age 86. He sold the Taco Bell chain to PepsiCo in 1978 for $125 million.
