Exceptional Community Amenities & Safety: Located in the highly sought-after Cielo Community, residents benefit from an Olympic-sized pool, tennis and pickleball courts, a dedicated fire station, and the prestigious 'Firewire USA designation' for enhanced safety.
Enhanced Lot Security & Stability: Over $1.5M was invested to reinforce the scenic hill, making this canyon lot one of the most secure in Rancho Santa Fe, addressing potential concerns about hillside properties.
Desirable Financial & Lifestyle Benefits: The property boasts low HOA fees and no Mello Roos, combined with an indoor-outdoor living concept featuring an outdoor kitchen and fireplace, and proximity to renowned golf courses and equestrian facilities.

Cons

Canyon Lot Perception: Despite significant reinforcement, the inherent nature of a canyon lot might still present perceived challenges or require specific maintenance considerations for some buyers, even with the stated security enhancements.
Absence of Private Pool/Spa: While the community offers an Olympic-sized pool, the property description does not mention a private pool or spa on the premises, which is a common expectation for luxury homes in this price range and climate.
Potential for Limited Usable Yard Space: As an 'end lot home' on a 'canyon lot,' the usable, flat yard space for extensive private recreation or gardening might be more constrained compared to properties on more traditional, expansive lots.
