About Rancho Margarita San Clemente
Rancho Margarita is a semi-rural residential enclave in southeast San Clemente offering larger-than-average lots, hillside terrain, and a quieter pace of life compared to San Clemente's coastal neighborhoods. The community is situated along the Cristianitos Road corridor near the city's southern boundary, providing a retreat-like setting with canyon views and open-space surroundings. Homes here tend to sit on generous parcels — many exceeding 10,000 square feet — and the area's relaxed zoning allows for equestrian keeping and hobby farming on select properties.
