About This Home

As of July 2025

Perched atop the rolling hills of Olivenhain, 1256 Rancho Encinitas is a one-of-a-kind architectural masterpiece. Originally built in 1986, this Weir Brothers Adobe has been meticulously reimagined with a $1 million+ renovation, blending the timeless craftsmanship of its adobe construction with the finest modern upgrades. The Weir Brothers are renowned for their signature adobe homes, which are celebrated for their organic warmth, energy efficiency, and enduring beauty. With hand-formed adobe bricks, exposed wood beams, and a seamless connection to nature, each Weir Brothers home is a work of art-designed to last for generations while evoking the charm of classic California haciendas. Spanning 3,337 square feet, this 4-bedroom, 3-bathroom estate offers unparalleled privacy and panoramic 180-degree views. Every inch of the home has been thoughtfully restored, with all-new systems, appliances, flooring, and finishes, making it a true collector's home. Tucked away in one of North County's most sought-after communities, this home delivers a rare combination of seclusion and accessibility-just 15 minutes from the beach and surrounded by the natural beauty of Olivenhain. A property of this caliber rarely comes to market. Don't miss your chance to own a piece of art, history, and luxury-all in one breathtaking residence.
