an average residential lot size in excess of two acres, rural Rancho Santa
Fe is distinguished by its open spaces. Sidewalks and street lights are
banned from residential areas. Winding driveways lead to traditionally
styled Spanish, Mediterranean or Ranch style homes flanked by fragrant,
citrus and native foliage. Elaborate landscaping protects the privacy
integral to the Rancho Santa Fe way of life.

Under
a beneficent sun that shines 320 days of the year, Rancho Santa Fe is one
of the garden spots of the world. The low-humidity, balmy climate is ideal
for the relaxed outdoor life for which the Ranch is known. Maximum/minimum
temperatures during an average year tell the story: August, 72/55;
November, 74/50; February, 66/48. The incomparable blend of sea and
mountain air, free of smog, combine to give the Ranch a quality few
communities can rival.
