The Rancho Santa Fe Home Market
Rancho Santa Fe became a popular residential spot between the First and Second World Wars, following the construction of the Del Mar Racetrack just west. Many properties in this area date back to that period, and local building restrictions help preserve the community's mid-20th century luxury appeal. Rancho Santa Fe's oldest area, The Covenant, goes further by keeping local streets free of streetlights, sidewalks, and traffic lights, in order to promote a more elegant, rural atmosphere. Aesthetics and architecture here are also regulated by an elected art jury.
Buyers looking for a new or recently built Rancho Santa Fe Home will also find a lot to choose from. New homes in this community come in a wide variety of modern Spanish, Mediterranean, Spanish, and ranch designs, with many affording views of the mountains to the west.
Rancho Santa Fe properties cover an average of two acres, and few local homes are visible from the road, trends that have enhanced the community's reputation for privacy and livability. Residents here also enjoy green space in the form of eucalyptus groves planted in the early 20th century by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway Company. The company planned to use wood from the groves for railway ties, but soon found the eucalyptus unsuitable, a corporate corporate blunder that's the good fortune of residents today.
Rancho Santa Fe's small downtown is home to many restaurants, small shops, financial firm offices, a library, and a top ranked school.
