Property Description
Set behind a canopy of mature trees in Rancho del Rio, this Rancho Santa Fe estate feels like a sanctuary of its own. Breathtaking views, exceptional privacy, and beautifully established grounds come together to create a setting that feels worlds away, yet remains just minutes from the Village of Rancho Santa Fe.From sunrise to sunset, the property unfolds through a series of thoughtfully curated outdoor spaces designed to embrace the Southern California lifestyle. Lush landscaping, mature fruit trees, sculptural cacti, and colorful gardens surround the home, creating the feeling of a private botanical retreat. Spend afternoons by the pool, gather for a game on the bocce ball court, dine outdoors beneath the trees, or simply take in the peaceful views and natural beauty that define the property.The mature landscape is an experience in itself, offering shade, privacy, color, and a sense of permanence that takes years to create. Every corner reveals another place to entertain, relax, garden, or enjoy the outdoors, making the grounds as much a part of the home as the residence itself.With expansive usable land, the estate also offers exceptional potential for the future. Whether envisioning an expanded residence, guest house, additional resort-style amenities, or recreational spaces, the property provides the flexibility to create a truly personalized Rancho Santa Fe compound.Adding to the property's appeal, a new roof and copper gutters were completed in 2026, providing a significant recent improvement to the residence. The estate also benefits from a voluntary HOA membership, an uncommon advantage for a property offering this level of privacy, setting, and lifestyle.Private, peaceful, and surrounded by nature, this is a rare opportunity to experience estate living in Rancho del Rio, where mature grounds, a pool, bocce court, sweeping views, and remarkable privacy come together in one extraordinary setting.
