The estate communities
Luxury custom homes in Rancho Santa Fe.
Develop a home and grounds around the way you want to live in Rancho Santa Fe. Joseph Hanna brings the design team and construction together, personally guiding the decisions that connect the property, architecture, interiors, and landscape.

YOUR HOMESITE
Consider the estate as a whole.
A Rancho Santa Fe address can belong to different communities and review systems. For a Covenant property, the Association’s Art Jury process sits alongside the County’s approvals, with the actual parcel establishing the starting point.
Establish the right direction
If you are considering a Covenant property, bring its records and community documents into the first design discussion. Joseph helps identify the relevant review path before the team develops an architectural direction around your priorities.
Plan arrival and grounds
Decide how guests should arrive, where service access belongs, and which rooms should open to gardens or a pool. Studying those choices with the survey, slopes, and drainage gives the house and its grounds a shared brief.
Give the landscape purpose
Existing trees, courtyards, walls, and planting can shape privacy and the experience of coming home. Coordinating these with the architecture early helps the design team develop one composition, considered from the road, neighboring properties, and inside the residence.
