Behind the gates of The Bridges in Rancho Santa Fe, this Plan 3 villa was taken to the studs and rebuilt. Every floor, every bathroom, every surface is new, designed start to finish by FDK Design in a warm modern-Mediterranean style that works with the home's arches, ironwork, and wood-beamed ceilings. The kitchen opens to the great room and runs on Taj Mahal quartzite, a Thermador dual-fuel range, a drawer microwave, dual dishwashers, a Sub-Zero refrigerator, and a custom hood, with the old wet bar reworked into an expanded pantry. The powder room is a showpiece on its own; it won the 2024 NKBA Star Design Award for Best Powder Room. The primary suite brings an imported-marble shower, a freestanding tub, and a fully built-out walk-in closet. Four bedrooms plus a guest casita leave room for family and visitors. A main-level office, currently set up as a nursery, flexes easily to a fifth bedroom or study, and a built-in homework room off the kitchen and an upstairs living room round out the everyday spaces. The grounds were rebuilt for lock-and-leave living: a covered loggia, an outdoor fireplace, a spa, a repositioned BBQ island, and all-new hardscape, plus an owned whole-home water filtration system. The rare find in The Bridges is the one where the work is already done. Nothing to renovate, nothing to permit, nothing between you and move-in.
