Santa Fe Hills
About Santa Fe Hills
Santa Fe Hills occupies Solana Beach's highest ground, where elevation delivers views across the valley and a sense of remove from the coastal density below. The community's position adjacent to Rancho Santa Fe gives it an address cache that goes beyond its Solana Beach zip.
Homes here skew contemporary and custom, with many designed to maximize the view corridors available from the hilltop position. Lots are generous and privacy is well-preserved by the natural topography.
Santa Fe Hills is the choice for Solana Beach buyers who want to be above it all — literally and figuratively — while remaining within easy reach of both beach and RSF amenities.
