About This Home

Rancho Santa Fe Lifestyle. County Freedom. No HOA. There are few addresses in North County San Diego that offer the proximity of Rancho Santa Fe with the flexibility of San Diego County. This is one of them. Positioned within the coveted Artesian corridor, just east of the Covenant, this 2.44-acre ranch estate offers a rare combination of location, usability, and long-term potential—the lifestyle of Rancho Santa Fe with the expansive lot sizes of San Diego County. Here, you are minutes from the Village, Del Mar, and the coast, yet free from HOA and Mello-Roos, allowing a level of flexibility and long-term ease of living that is increasingly difficult to find. Set behind two gated entrances—one dedicated to the residence and one to the equestrian facilities—the property is thoughtfully arranged for both privacy and function. The land is entirely flat and usable, offering immediate enjoyment with meaningful opportunity for future expansion. The Santa Fe-style main residence features 5 bedrooms and 4 bathrooms, with warm, connected living spaces designed for everyday comfort and effortless entertaining. A chef’s kitchen with a built-in breakfast nook anchors the home, while French doors open to a series of outdoor living areas that feel both natural and refined. The grounds are cohesive and understated, complementing the architecture rather than competing with it. A pool, spa, outdoor shower, and BBQ area create a relaxed, resort-like setting, while a rooftop deck captures ocean views on clear days. Owned solar and an attached ADU provide flexibility for guests, extended family, or staff. Equestrian amenities include a 4-stall barn, 10 corrals, tack rooms, wash racks, cross ties, arena, round pen, and pasture. The property connects directly to miles of county-maintained riding and hiking trails, including access to the Lusardi Creek Preserve and its surrounding network of open space, lakes, and picnic areas—an essential part of the lifestyle this location offers. This pocket of 92127 has long been valued by those seeking space, privacy, and access to the equestrian lifestyle without the constraints of a managed community. Nearby conveniences include 4S Ranch, HITS Del Mar, Helen Woodward Animal Center, Mary's Tack & Feed, and the Village of Rancho Santa Fe—all within a short drive. Located within Solana Beach Elementary School District and the highly regarded San Dieguito Union High School District, this offering presents both immediate livability and long-term upside. Properties in this corridor are limited, and opportunities with this combination of usable land, location, flexibility, and ease of living are increasingly rare. A property defined not only by what it is today, but by what it allows for tomorrow.
