Located at the end of a secluded cul de sac on 4.75 Covenant acres, this prime site is distinctive for its spectacular panoramic views overlooking the RSF Golf Course and the rolling hills beyond. A one of a kind! Sequestered on 4.75 Covenant acres convenient to the village and riding trails is the sophisticated estate known as La Paz. Rich in Rancho Santa Fe's heritage, this inviting, olde world property displays graceful elegance in an understated style. It consists of the main residence, guest cottage, carriage house, and a comfortable studio apartment above a state-of-the-art horse facility. Originally built for George Richardson, owner of The Inn at Rancho Santa Fe in the 1940s, La Paz was designed in a classic, Spanish style by Roland Coate, a well known Los Angeles architect. This prime site, located at the end of a secluded cul-de-sac, is distinctive for its spectacular panoramic views overlooking the RSF Golf Course and the rolling hills beyond. An ambiance of California's past is immediately evident as one enters La Paz through a porte-cochere to the motor courtyard, where covered walkways laced with bougainvillea connect the main residence to the guest cottage and carriage house. The main residence is elegant, ideal for entertaining, designed for indoor outdoor living and takes full advantage of the extensive views. The charming guest cottage features two bedrooms and a living room, while the carriage house provides separate living quarters including kitchenette, living room and bedroom suite. The property's six bedrooms all have direct outdoor access to garden, patio or balcony. Other amenities include a secluded rose garden, clover-shaped pool with spa, three-car garage, shuffleboard court, three stall barn with paddocks and 340 tree lemon grove. Surrounded by nature in a profusion of large shade trees, flowering vines, hidden pathways and lush lawns, La Paz may be the most enchanting estate in Rancho Santa Fe.
