“The Eagle’s Nest,” represented by Tim Van Damm of Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices California Properties, is a remarkable Rancho Santa Fe estate perched atop one of the area’s highest hills, offering breathtaking 360-degree ocean, golf course, and mountain views. Located on a private gated street, the estate showcases exceptional craftsmanship, impeccably manicured grounds, and materials sourced from around the world. Amenities include a home theater, two-story library, rooftop deck, fitness center, private guest quarters, and spectacular fountains. The property exemplifies luxury living at its finest.

“One of the best things about this one is that, even though it’s positioned on top of one of the highest hills in our area, it’s on a private gated street and most of the outdoor living areas are totally secluded,” noted Van Damm, a luxury specialist who was the #1 ranked agent in San Diego for his sales production in 2025.
Set on a cul-de-sac at the end of a long private driveway, the residence features an approximately 2.66 acre lot with a spacious pool, a covered outdoor spa room, numerous water features and lush, tropical landscaping. An expansive loggia with cathedral ceilings and an outdoor fireplace, a large Koi pond and an outdoor dining room framed by waterfalls are just a few of the other highlights.
“Families with children will especially love the Koi pond, pathways and gardens,” said Van Damm. “It is easy to imagine the sounds of laughter reverberating throughout the estate when you walk around. The entire property feels like a personal botanical garden.”
Van Damm explained that many of the buyers he works with who are moving to Rancho Santa Fe are interested in lower density environments, more acreage, and safer, quieter areas for children. “People don’t come here for a flashy urban lifestyle and nightlife,” joked Van Damm. “Instead, this is a place people come to if they want to have a private resort on their property, as well as adjacency to beaches, golf courses and equestrian facilities.”
The estate is down the street from Kalimar Farms Equestrian School, Evergate Stables and Rancho Paseana. The Farms Golf Club, the Santaluz Club, and Del Mar Country Club are also nearby. “The beaches of Del Mar and the Fairgrounds are also just a short drive from here, but that doesn’t mean the interior shouldn’t be emphasized,” said Van Damm.
An open foyer with dual staircases and extensive natural stone creates an impressive atmosphere for the home, which has custom moldings, wood floors, hand painted murals and volume ceilings in many of the rooms. “This has finishes of the highest quality and materials that were sourced from all over the world,” added Van Damm.
The formal spaces include an elevated dining area with views, a walk-behind wet bar with counter seating, and a living room with a fireplace. The family room is open to a bespoke gourmet kitchen with high-end appliances, a Wolf gas range and built-in refrigerator.
A rooftop deck allows for unrivaled views of the ocean and sunset; an expansive primary suite allows for the ultimate in comfort and relaxation. “The attention to detail here is incredible and, with nine bedrooms and private guest quarters, there is ample room for multiple generations of family members,” said Van Damm.
The Eagle’s Nest is offered at $15,495,000.
Along with his team, Van Damm has consistently ranked at the top of the Berkshire Hathaway HomeServices global network. Outside of real estate, he and his wife Cecilia are proud parents of seven children. Van Damm serves on the board of directors for Father Joe’s Villages and supports a number of charitable organizations.
