Architecture is meant to evoke feelings and emotions through such elements as color, natural light, texture and space. Welcome to 6977 Las Colinas, where the understated elegance and strength of early California Hacienda architecture inspires an impression of authenticity, comfort and warmth. The impressions begin where an 18th century Mexican door with original iron hardware reveals an intimate portico with a beamed ceiling of wood chevrons and raised fireplace. The portico opens to a small courtyard bedecked with plants, a vintage fountain and iron lanterns leading to the home’s front door. Stepping inside you will find a beamed foyer and hand painted ceiling, a fireplace, and a patinated Saltillo tile floor. From here you will find hand-scraped, reclaimed wood floors, high ceilings adorned with massive carved beams and archways framed by thick plaster walls. A closer look and count 12 sets of antique Mexican doors, inside and out. Fourteen fireplaces, also inside and out, including one in the primary bath. A kitchen with hand- crafted wood cabinetry, soapstone counters, skylights, and a corner kiva fireplace, opening to the family room, with skylights and a large stone fireplace, plus telescoping doors to two terraces. There are stone terraces and outdoor access from every public room in the house, every bedroom, and some of the baths. While speaking consistently to the traditional hacienda aesthetic, 6977 Las Colinas also meets modern expectations following a thoughtful restoration and renovation of the entire home as well as the guest house over the last two years. This renovation includes remodeled bedrooms, new baths with new marble and ceramic tile and new plumbing fixtures, new electrical wiring throughout the house plus new energy efficient LED in- ceiling lighting, the refurbishment of approximately 80 original exterior iron lanterns, new paint inside and out, an updated irrigation system, a resurfaced swimming pool, new wool carpeting in select bedrooms and the media room, plus the creation of a landscaped oasis of native flora including stately palms, lemon, olive and avocado trees, white roses, lavender, perennial grasses, shrubs and succulents , all of which flourish on this three acre, all usable property.  (A more comprehensive list of the renovation projects undertaken by the current owners is available for review by interested buyers.). At 10,500 square feet of updated living space, the home includes multiple gathering and lounging rooms, plus several intimate spaces such as the moody office/ library,  the cashmere upholstered TV room, and your own tasting “ cave” . Note that the bedrooms are large enough to accommodate sitting and study areas, plus  bunk beds , should a new owner have need for the latter. Virtually all of these rooms- whether social or private, large or intimate - have direct outdoor access. This is a true “ indoor- outdoor” home, with key living areas flowing to outdoor lounging and dining areas, to the outdoor kitchen and surrounding entertaining space, the heated pool and spa plus the flat backyard that begs for a game of football or soccer. A pickle ball- sized sport court completes the  outdoor possibilities, allowing a family to enjoy this home in so many ways. Situated in the Covenant of Rancho Santa Fe on a beautiful, meandering, tree- lined road, you enjoy the privacy of a three acre, wooded estate yet minutes from the Village, with its’ restaurants, shopping, salons and the historic, yet newly renovated Inn at Rancho Santa Fe with fine dining, a lively social scene and an aesthetic remarkably similar to that of 6977. Perhaps best of all, you are just minutes from one of the best golf courses in Southern California. A true bonus of living in the Covenant is an immediate membership to the prestigious Rancho Santa Fe Golf and Tennis Club - no wait list for Covenant owners and no sponsorship required.
