Overview

Property can be split into 2 parcels. Owner will give time to get map done! Looking for outstanding views and acreage (1.72 Ac.), where vivid sunrises and dynamic sunsets are an everyday occurrence? This is it! First time on the market in over 50 years, opportunities like this are truly rare. Perched atop a hill with unbeatable backcountry views of Indian Head Canyon and Encinitas Ranch Golf Course, combined with excellent westerly views toward the ocean, this property offers a breathtaking setting from sunrise to sunset. This gated flag-lot parcel spans 1.72 acres in coastal Leucadia, offering exceptional privacy. You’ll be amazed by how much of the land is flat and usable, perfect for creating a legacy family compound, with the potential to subdivide into two oversized parcels. Current zoning is RR2 (Rural Residential—2 units per acre), with a minimum lot size of 21,500 sq. ft. The well-maintained original concrete block home has been tastefully updated over time and could potentially be retained as fantastic guest quarters. Located near the south end of Rainbow Ridge Lane, the property includes a clicker to a private gate providing convenient ingress and egress to the south, a luxury enjoyed only by this section of the street. This is a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to enjoy the ultimate coastal lifestyle, with the beach just minutes away, along with great restaurants, shopping, and easy freeway access.
