Rancho Santa Fe Real Estate and HomesRancho Santa Fe (92067), an unincorporated, upscale area located in the North County of San Diego is a California Historic Landmark. It is fondly called the "ranch" is known for its large lots, rural ambiance and celebrity residents. The completion of the Lake Hodges dam in 1917 brought water to the area and construction of the village began in 1922. From the beginning, planning and respect for the environment have been hallmarks of the "covenant" (as the original subdivision is known). A local architect, Lillian Rice, planned the subdivision. The Spanish Colonial Revival style of architecture was standard for all the public buildings--school, library, the Inn, the civic center--designed by Rice. The minimum lot size established by the
covenant--two and half acres--ensures that the homes in Rancho Santa
Fe are private and highly desirable. Other communities have grown up
around the "ranch" over the years including Fairbanks Ranch, Hacienda
Santa Fe, The Summit, Del Rayo, Morgan's Run and recently Rancho Cielo
and the Crosby Estates which all surround the original covenant and
share in its ambiance. Find your San Diego home in these areas now, including addresses and maps!
