for $2,195,000 with 2 bedrooms and 2 full baths, 1 half bath. This 2,089 square foot home was built in 1999 on a lot size of 2.5.
Welcome to 20790 Fortuna Del Norte, a rare and soulful gated property where nature, privacy, and intentional living come together in perfect harmony. Set on over two and a half private acres with sweeping panoramic views, this fully reimagined modern farmhouse retreat offers a lifestyle that is both grounding and elevated, designed for those who value space, serenity, and connection to the outdoors. The approximately 1,500 sq. ft. main residence has been thoughtfully transformed with a focus on light, flow, and well-being. Soaring open-beam ceilings, wide-plank LVP flooring, and a dramatic custom wood-burning fireplace create a warm, inviting atmosphere, while expansive windows frame the surrounding landscape—bringing the outside in at every turn. At the center of the home, the chef’s kitchen is both beautiful and functional, featuring an oversized waterfall-edge quartz island, black stainless appliances, and curated finishes that make everyday living feel elevated. The open-concept design seamlessly connects indoor and outdoor spaces, creating an effortless rhythm for both quiet mornings and lively gatherings. Step outside and the experience deepens. Multiple outdoor living spaces have been designed to restore and inspire, from the expansive view deck where sunrise coffee becomes a daily ritual, to the private spa and sauna, offering a true at-home wellness experience. Meandering paths, mature trees, and 2-person infrared sauna thoughtfully curated spaces invite moments of pause, connection, and reflection. The approximately 600 sq. ft. detached guest house adds incredible flexibility, complete with a kitchen, full bath, and loft, ideal for extended stays, creative space, or income potential. Whether hosting guests or creating a private retreat, this space lives beautifully independent from the main home. Beyond its current beauty, this property offers rare opportunity and room to grow. The expansive grounds provide space to expand the main residence, add additional structures, or create a more robust compound-style estate. With usable land and a natural setting, there is also potential for equestrian use, gardens, or hobby farming, allowing you to truly tailor the property to your lifestyle. The land itself becomes part of the experience, offering both freedom and future potential in a way that is increasingly hard to find. Located within the Rancho Santa Fe School District and just minutes to San Elijo Hills as well as shopping, dining, and the beaches of North County, this property offers the rare balance of seclusion and convenience. This is more than a home, it’s a lifestyle. A place to slow down, breathe deeper, and live more intentionally, with the space to grow into whatever comes next. Truly one of a kind.
