More about this project

The home sits within the Santa Lucia Preserve, a 20,000-acre gated community above Carmel Valley where about 90 percent of the land is protected as open space in perpetuity. Only 297 homesites are allowed. The Preserve opened in 1999, and its conserved land is stewarded by the Santa Lucia Conservancy, an independent land trust founded in 1995. Amenities include a Tom Fazio-designed golf course, an equestrian center and a historic 1920s hacienda.
