History:

The present day Southcliff was once known as Hope Dairy, a small dairy farm owned and operated by the Earwood family throughout the 1940s and 50s. In 1963, the land was sold to Harry Bloomberg, a local businessman who preserved the property in its natural state. Forty years later, Bloomberg’s daughters sold the property in 2005, whereupon its current owners' vision of a private, gated-community, inspired by nature, began to take shape.

You can almost hear the wind kissing the leaves of the tall oaks, blushing red. The aroma of rhododendron fills the cool, early morning air. The rustle of leaves under your feet, mountain water splashing against rocks and breathtaking mountain views all tell you that you’ve found someplace special.
