The project site is bounded by scattered estate homes and orchards to the north, vacant land and estate homes to the west, vacant land to the east, and the Santa Fe Hills residential community to the south. The project is a single-family residential development project that includes large blocks of habitat conservation. The project proposes 189 clustered single-family residential lots and two open space lots. The project boundary is 293.3 acres which includes 262.14 acres within the Specific Plan, plus an additional 26.47 acres outside of the Specific Plan that would serve as a mitigation area for habitat impacts. Also included in the overall project boundary is a 4.7-acre area dedicated as an offsite habitat linkage easement. Total open space within the project area covers 243.23 acres. The conserved open space covers 210.80 acres and the remaining non-biological open space (fuel modification, manufactured exterior slopes, water quality lots and parks) totals 32.43 acres.
