About Bordeaux in Pacific Highlands Ranch

Bordeaux is the original Pardee Homes neighborhood within Pacific Highlands Ranch. Built in 2003, the community comprises 106 detached single-family homes — an intimate scale by PHR standards, where most other Pardee phases came later and ran larger. Homes range from approximately 2,300 to 2,780 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms, and some lots feature canyon-rim views that have become increasingly rare in newer PHR developments.

What sets Bordeaux apart is the combination of two things in short supply across Pacific Highlands Ranch: 20+ year established character and a relatively small community footprint. The streetscape has settled into itself, the landscaping has matured, and many homes have benefited from updates and improvements by long-term owners. For buyers who want PHR's amenities and schools but prefer the character of an established intimate neighborhood to brand-new construction, Bordeaux deserves close consideration.

The Bordeaux name also serves as the umbrella for a related Pardee build called Soleil at Bordeaux — a 163-home Pardee phase completed in 2006, three years after the original Bordeaux. The two communities share the Bordeaux name but represent distinct build phases and lot sections. When comparing Bordeaux to other Pardee neighborhoods like Brightwater, Hampton Lane, and Casavia, Sez Sezer can walk you through current pricing and which Bordeaux home best fits your needs.

Soleil at Bordeaux — The Related Pardee Phase

Three years after the original Bordeaux was completed, Pardee Homes built a related, larger phase under the same naming umbrella: Soleil at Bordeaux, a 163-home development completed in 2006. The "Soleil" name (French for sun) signals an evolution of Bordeaux's French wine-country sensibility, capturing the way that elegance is shaped by Southern California's defining climate.

For buyers researching Bordeaux homes, it's important to understand that the two communities share a name but represent distinct build phases and lot sections. Listings may appear under either name. Soleil at Bordeaux homes are physically related to but separate from the original Bordeaux footprint, and they comprise a larger portion of the total Bordeaux-named inventory.

Mature Landscaping
Trees, shrubs, and lot landscaping have matured for 20+ years
Settled Streetscape
Quiet, residential character with long-term homeowners
Intimate Scale
Only 106 homes makes for tight-knit community feel

Frequently Asked Questions About Bordeaux

Who built Bordeaux and when?
Bordeaux was built by Pardee Homes in 2003, comprising 106 detached single-family homes. It is the original (oldest) Pardee neighborhood within Pacific Highlands Ranch. Three years later (2006), Pardee built a related 163-home phase under the Bordeaux name called Soleil at Bordeaux.
How big are Bordeaux homes?
Bordeaux homes range approximately 2,300 to 2,780 square feet with 3 to 5 bedrooms. For specific floor plan details on individual homes, contact Sez Sezer — he can pull current home-by-home availability and configurations.
What's the relationship between Bordeaux and Soleil at Bordeaux?
Soleil at Bordeaux is a related Pardee phase under the Bordeaux naming umbrella. The original Bordeaux was built first (2003, 106 homes); Soleil at Bordeaux was built three years later (2006, 163 homes) as a distinct phase — and is actually the larger of the two. Listings may appear under either name, but they represent different build phases and lot sections. Both are Pardee-built and share PHR amenity access.
Do any Bordeaux homes have canyon-rim views?
Yes — some Bordeaux lots feature canyon-rim positioning that delivers preserved natural views over Pacific Highlands Ranch's surrounding open space. View lots are limited and tend to command a premium when they hit the market. Contact Sez Sezer for current availability of view homes.
Why does the "established" character of Bordeaux matter?
Bordeaux was built 20+ years ago, which means landscaping has matured, the streetscape feels settled, and many homes have benefited from updates and improvements by long-term owners. For buyers who prefer a real neighborhood character to brand-new construction, Bordeaux offers something most newer Pardee phases cannot — especially valuable in a community where most newer phases were completed within the last 15 years.
How does Bordeaux compare to other Pardee neighborhoods in PHR?
Bordeaux is the oldest Pardee neighborhood in PHR (2003) and an intimately scaled community (106 homes). Brightwater emphasizes live-big interiors. Hampton Lane focuses on easy-maintenance. Casavia is the largest in floor plan size. Canterra and Verana use the separate Solterra Swim Club. Bordeaux is the established original — mature landscaping, intimate scale, occasional canyon-rim views, and often an accessible pricing tier in PHR Pardee inventory.
What community amenities come with Bordeaux homes?
Residents access Pacific Highlands Ranch's amenities including the West Highland Pacific Recreation Center (Junior Olympic pool, spa, fitness room, water play area), 1,300 acres of preserved natural habitat, multi-use trail system, drought-tolerant landscaping, the Village at PHR walkable center, and a community park.
What schools serve Bordeaux?
Bordeaux is served by the Del Mar Union School District (K–8) and San Dieguito Union High School District. High schools include Canyon Crest Academy, Torrey Pines High School, and the private Cathedral Catholic.
Are there homes for sale in Bordeaux right now?
Current listings appear directly on this page when active. With only 106 homes in the original Bordeaux community, inventory is tight and well-priced homes sell quickly. If no listings appear, contact Sez Sezer to be notified when new Bordeaux homes come on the market — including Soleil at Bordeaux related-phase homes.
Thinking of selling a home in Bordeaux?
Sellers benefit from working with an agent who understands what drives Bordeaux buyer demand — the established character, mature landscaping, intimate community scale, occasional canyon-rim view premium, and how Bordeaux fits in the broader PHR Pardee lineup including its Soleil at Bordeaux related phase. Contact Sez Sezer for a no-obligation home valuation.
