Carmel Valley

Carmel Valley is an affluent, master-planned community that has matured into a place where people can live, work and play. Located just to the east of Del Mar, the area’s temperate weather, ocean breezes, close proximity to nearby beaches, and easy access to the freeways, all combine to help make Carmel Valley one of the most coveted places to call home in San Diego County.

Carmel Valley features a wide range of housing, ranging from condominiums to custom luxury estates. Carmel Valley is distinguished by several neighborhoods; Del Mar Highlands, Seabreeze Farms, Carmel Country Highlands, Torrey Del Mar, Rancho Pacifica, Collins Ranch, Torrey Hills, Del Mar Mesa, Meadows Del Mar, and Pacific Highlands Ranch. Residents enjoy the tight-knit community feel of the area and close proximity to the local beaches.

Many residents are drawn to the Carmel Valley area because of the award-winning school districts.
