Upscale homes in the North County mountains
Situated within a large swath of North County mountain terrain not far from the Highway 15 corridor, West Ridge combines the convenience of parks and nearby shopping with the luxury of massive nature reserves. The area is also known as Harmony Grove, and its centerpiece community is the upscale suburban Harmony Grove Village. Dan Anderson, Realtor with Keller Williams Realty who has lived in Harmony Grove Village since 2017, says, “The community is comprised of nine beautiful neighborhoods — Winchester, Whittingham, Contessa, Cavalli, Andalucia, Seabreeze, Lusitano, Martingale and Cartridge — with nearly 750 homes. We’re situated within the larger Harmony Grove area that heads into the mountains and toward the Elfin Forest Recreational Park. The best part is, you’re always minutes from everything you need, even though it feels remote and secluded.”

Barbecue grills are built into outdoor-kitchen-style rock foundations next to rows of stone picnic tables. From anywhere in the park, visitors can take in glorious mountain views.

Casual Italian cuisine and quick access to grocery and retail
Residents are fond of Rock n’ Jenny’s Italian Subs, an Escondido tradition since 1989. This family-owned eatery is famous for its delicious spaghetti and meatballs, as well as a menu of authentic East Coast-style Italian subs on warm crusty rolls. For in-home dining, groceries are within just a mile or so northeast at Albertsons. “You’re also only a quick drive to Home Depot, Costco, Walmart, and everything across the 78," Anderson says. "If you head down Via Rancho Parkway, you’ll hit all the shopping and dining at North County Mall, which is a great place for family or date-night dinners at well-known restaurants."

Bus lines, tram lines and highways within minutes
The closest public transit stops are 3 miles outside of the neighborhood on West Mission Road, where commuters will find many bus stops and the Nordahl Road tram station. “It’s out in the country, with access, because you can get anywhere in all of San Diego County in 30 or 40 minutes," Anderson says. "Here, you’re far enough away that you enjoy a quiet lifestyle while being minutes from anything you need.”
