Canyon Ridge is a gated community of 116 two-story attached homes in central Carmel Valley, located south and west of the intersection of Del Mar Heights Road and Carmel Canyon Road. It's often listed alongside Carmel Valley's townhome communities, but technically Canyon Ridge consists of twin-homes — pairs of homes sharing a single wall, each with its own attached 2-car garage and private front and back yards, giving residents more of a single-family feel than a typical attached townhome.
The community has an interesting construction history: Baldwin Homes began the project in 1993, but the company went bankrupt before completion. Warmington Homes — a builder with roots dating back to 1920s Beverly Hills — took over and finished the community, with the first homeowners moving in around 1995–1996.
What stands out most about Canyon Ridge is sheer size: floor plans range from 1,680 to 2,000 sq. ft. with 3–4 bedrooms and cathedral ceilings — larger than any other attached-home community covered on this site, including Antares (1,482–1,975 sq. ft.). For buyers who want the low-maintenance, gated lifestyle of a townhome community but need genuinely spacious living, Canyon Ridge is one of the few options in 92130 that delivers both.
At 1,680–2,000 sq. ft. with 3–4 bedrooms, Canyon Ridge homes are larger than Antares (1,482–1,975 sq. ft.), Coral Cove (1,415–1,747 sq. ft.), and most other gated communities in 92130. Combined with private front and back yards and cathedral ceilings, Canyon Ridge offers a living experience closer to a single-family home than a typical townhome — while keeping the low-maintenance, gated lifestyle.

Canyon Ridge homes are two-story twin-homes ranging from 1,680 to 2,000 sq. ft. with 3–4 bedrooms, attached 2-car garages, cathedral ceilings, open floor plans, and private front and back yards — energy-efficient upgrades were incorporated during construction, and many units have been further updated since.
Given the larger square footage and bedroom counts compared to most Carmel Valley townhome communities, Canyon Ridge homes typically start around $1.5 million. Some units back up to Del Mar Heights Road or Carmel Canyon Road and may be subject to road noise — worth factoring in when comparing specific listings. Contact Sez Sezer for current active listings, recent comparable sales, and verified HOA and Mello-Roos figures for the specific unit you're considering.
Canyon Ridge is frequently listed as a "townhome" community, but it's technically a twin-home (sometimes called a "duet" or "patio home") community. Understanding the distinction helps explain why Canyon Ridge feels different from communities like The Groves or Sunstream.
Canyon Ridge sits in central Carmel Valley at the intersection of Del Mar Heights Road and Carmel Canyon Road. The community is walkable to two of the area's most popular parks and to Ashley Falls Elementary, while Del Mar Highlands Town Center and One Paseo are a bit over a mile away along Del Mar Heights Road.
Note: some units back up to Del Mar Heights Road or Carmel Canyon Road and may be subject to road noise — ask your agent about specific unit locations.
