Del Mar Mesa consists of approximately 2,000 acres and is located in the southern area of Carmel Valley. Del Mar Mesa is a semi-rural community of estate-sized homes, also home to the Grand Del Mar golf resort, featuring a Tom Fazio golf course through the lush valleys of Los Penasquitos Canyon Preserve. This resort was formerly known as The Meadows.
A large portion of the eastern end of the community is being conserved as open space under the City's Multiple Species Conservation Program. Visual reminders of an earlier agricultural history include remnants of eucalyptus groves that were planted around the farmsteads dating to the late 1800s. Earlier inhabitants, the La Jolla and subsequent Ipai peoples, left cultural artifacts within nearby Carmel Valley also known as East Del Mar.
Del Mar Mesa offers an excellent location and just minutes from the beach, I-5 freeway, the Golden Trianble and Sorrento Valley businesses. |
