ABOUT THE HIGHLANDS
ELEVATED LIVING. EXCEPTIONAL SCALE.
Situated in the northern reaches of Pacific Highlands Ranch, The Highlands stands as one of the most prestigious residential enclaves within the greater Carmel Valley area. This luxury community offers an exceptional collection of homes that combine significant scale with thoughtful design, creating a living environment that is both impressive and genuinely comfortable.
Homes within The Highlands typically range from approximately 3,500 to 5,000+ square feet and offer four to five bedrooms, providing generous space for families of all sizes. The architectural character draws from contemporary California design with timeless coastal influences, resulting in residences that feel both current and enduring.
Inside, open-concept floor plans invite abundant natural light throughout, while oversized kitchen islands serve as natural gathering points for family and entertaining. Covered outdoor living areas and seamless indoor-outdoor transitions extend the livable footprint and take full advantage of Southern California’s exceptional climate. Select homes enjoy canyon, open-space, and sunset views that further elevate the everyday experience.
Residents of The Highlands enjoy access to two private recreation centers: The Club at Pacific Highlands Ranch and The Club at Lopelia Meadows. Both facilities offer resort-style pools, spas, fitness centers, gathering spaces, and recreation areas — providing a lifestyle rarely found outside of luxury resort communities.
Beyond the private amenities, The Highlands is surrounded by more than 1,300 acres of preserved open space, interconnected trails, and community parks. The Village at Pacific Highlands Ranch is just minutes away, offering convenient access to shopping, dining, wellness services, a public library, and a dog park.
Families are drawn to The Highlands in part for its access to highly regarded schools. Depending on current attendance boundaries, students are generally served by Solana Santa Fe Elementary School (Solana Beach School District), Pacific Trails Middle School, and Canyon Crest Academy or Torrey Pines High School (San Dieguito Union High School District). School assignments should always be confirmed directly with the applicable district.
The Highlands also offers exceptional proximity to the best of North County Coastal San Diego. Del Mar’s beaches, One Paseo, Del Mar Highlands Town Center, and convenient freeway access via Interstate 5 and State Route 56 are all within easy reach.
For those seeking a rare combination of scale, location, and lifestyle in one of San Diego’s most desirable communities, The Highlands represents an exceptional opportunity.
