Bressi ranch and surrounds

[Eugene]

La Costa Valley is between Rancho Santa Fe Road and El Camino Real north of Camino Barcelona. Incredibly overpriced like all of Carlsbad but some smaller houses occasionally get listed below 700k.

It’s South Carlsbad which is right on the border of Encinitas/Carlsbad so you are in the Encinitas Union Elementary School District and the San Dieguito Union High School district for the secondary schools. There’s a train station in downtown Encinitas which is probably a couple minutes longer commute than going from Bressi to the Poinsettia station. Moonlight Beach is about the same distance as Ponto Beach would be from Bressi and downtown Encinitas is actually closer to us than the Village of Carlsbad would be from Bressi. You also have all sorts of stores like Target, Home Depot, Savon, the Forum Shops etc. that are literally a 3-4 minute drive. It’s very convenient.

La Costa Valley is not to be confused with the older La Costa homes which were built mostly in the 70’s and 80’s and are not part of the HOA. There are two main entrances to La Costa Valley. One is at Calle Barcelona and El Camino Real and the other is Calle Barcelona and Rancho Santa Fe Road. There’s always 2 or 3 open houses on the weekend.

Thanks… would those newer developments like La Costa green and La Costa Oaks be a part of the La costa valley? It is alittle confusing.

Hi Terri,
I am new to So Cal too – I grew up in VT and have lived in Chicago, Minneapolis, Dallas & Austin over the last 12 years. We have lived in La Costa Greens in the La Costa area of Carlsbad since April, and we love it. We are renting a home until the market stabilizes. I was very reluctant to rent as I had owned homes for over a decade, but we’re glad we did. I’ve gotten to know the area & now have narrowed down where we eventually want to buy. I highly recommend you consider doing this as well. There are some homes for rent here, and the development is very family-oriented and super-friendly. La Costa Greens has a great pool & community party area called the Presido, and the houses are just a couple of years old at the most (some are brand new as the development is still under contruction). It’s south of Bressi Ranch, out of the commercial construction area and closer to the golf course – some homes are actually on the La Costa golf course. A lot of homes have great views. The only drawback I have is that the school system is San Marcos for most of La Costa Greens. The elementary school (La Costa Meadow) is very good, but the high school is not great, although by all reports it’s improving. Other nice & newer developments in the La Costa area include La Costa Ridge (San Marcos schools) and La Costa Oaks (Encinitas schools, which are great). I highly recommend Carlsbad or Encinitas if you are looking for a family-oriented area on the train line. Good luck to you & your family! You’ll love it out here.
