The Rancho Santa Fe Covenant Community

Rancho Santa Fe Covenant was named a California Historical Landmark in 1989 as an important example of a planned community.

Developed beginning in the 1920’s, with architect Lillian Rice on the lead, the community was designed in the California Spanish Colonial Revival architectural style that is still prevalent to this day.

Rancho Santa Fe Covenant is at once exclusive and understated, elegant in its stature, yet comfortable in its semi-rural roots.

Most of the community consists of rolling hills that are peppered with low-density, large-lot residential development (the average lot is more than two acres in size).

A number of the luxurious and exclusive residences within “The Ranch” (as residents fondly refer to it) incorporate private gates, but the community itself is not gated (though there is a full-time security patrol).

The Rancho Santa Fe Covenant Agreement

The Covenant is a protective agreement among property owners “to preserve the unique character of the community and uphold the quality of future architecture.”

First adopted in 1928, the Covenant is managed by the Rancho Santa Fe Association.

In addition to the original Covenant, any property annexed after 1928 has a specific Covenant Acceptance Agreement.

The Covenant Acceptance Agreement is a legally binding contract between the Association and the property owner and is considered to be an addendum to the Protective Covenant.

This agreement is bound to the property and transfers with the property when it is sold.

The new owner is then obligated to comply with the same requirements as other Covenant owners and is entitled to the services and member privileges of the Association (see Covenant privileges below).

Rancho Santa Fe Covenant is managed by the Rancho Santa Fe Association and yearly dues are assessed at 14 cents per every $100 of property value, as shown on the San Diego County tax assessor’s roll.

Rancho Santa Fe Covenant Privileges

Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club

Rancho Santa Fe Golf Club

This 18-hole 7,073 yard, par 72 championship course, is considered one of the top courses in California.

In fact, the golf course was the home of the Bing Crosby (one of the first residents of the community) “Clambake”, which was the predecessor to the AT&T Pebble Beach Tournament.
