Carmel Valley

Carmel Valley is one of the newer neighborhoods in San Diego County. The master-planned community, which sits at the foot of Carmel Mountain was constructed beginning in 1983. The name Carmel Valley comes from the location of the area at the foot of Carmel Mountain. Carmel Mountain was named for the Carmelite Sisters of Mercy, a group that established a dairy farm and monastery in the area around 1905. Carmel Valley real estate carries on a lengthy tradition of livability in the beautiful, resource-rich, coastal plain.
