Prestigious communities with spectacular homes and amenities.
Rancho Santa Fe is an exclusive community of exquisite master-planned communities located 30 minutes north of San Diego. The oldest such community is The Covenant, which was constructed in the 1920s following the vision of architect Lillian Rice. Rice envisioned an enchanting community of equestrian estates, most of which were constructed in Spanish Colonial Revival style. With beautifully landscaped surroundings and the upscale shops and restaurants of the Beaux Arts-style at its center, The Covenant is a registered California Historical Landmark that is as captivating today as when it was first constructed.
Gated communities, such as Fairbanks Ranch, The Groves, and The Bridges have added to Rancho Santa Fe real estate’s desirability since The Covenant was constructed. All have sprawling Rancho Santa Fe estates surrounded by first-class country club and resort-style amenities, as well as spectacular custom-built properties selling for $2-$10 million.

Rancho Santa Fe offers superb luxury living. Residents of its numerous exclusive private communities enjoy access to world-class golf courses and other high-end amenities. Some of the larger estates have private tennis courts, spas, home theaters and guesthouses situated on their property. With its incredible combination of space and luxury, Rancho Santa Fe has long appealed to well-known residents. Bing Crosby organized a golf tournament here in the 1930s, and Bill Gates purchased an $18 million equestrian ranch from weight-loss guru Jenny Craig in 2014.

Rancho Santa Fe’s prestigious private communities have been designed with golf at their center, and there is no shortage of exceptional courses here. The Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club, which hosted Bing Crosby’s famous series of “Clambake” Pro-Am tournaments in the ‘30s and ‘40s, features a classic course designed by Max Behr in 1929. Morgan Run has a picturesque 27-hole championship golf course, as well as 11 lighted hard courts for tennis, a leisure pool, spa, and world-class fitness facilities. The challenging and attractive botanical garden-style course at The Farms is a favorite among those who take the game seriously, with Golf Digest ranking its players among the top 50 of any course in the country. The Bridges’ Robert Trent Jones II-designed course, nestled amid coastal crests and canyons, may be Rancho Santa Fe’s most breathtakingly beautiful.
