Côta Vera is a new master planned community devoted to well-being, a spectrum of outdoor experiences, and community connection. We are located in Chula Vista, within the larger Otay Ranch masterplan, and will have single family homes and townhomes for sale as well as apartments for lease.

HomeFed Corporation, who also developed The Village of Escaya.

Currently there are three homebuilders: Shea Homes, Lennar and Calwest but as the building progresses, there is a potential of more builders joining the project.

Côta Vera will be 555 developable acres in total with about 2,400 for sale homes and 2,400 for lease apartments. Phase 1 will have about 900 for sale homes and 1,200 for lease homes, and Phase 2 will have about 1,500 for sale homes and 1,200 for lease apartments. This totals out to about 4,800 units across the entire project. (Note: This could, and likely will, change as the developer continues planning).

From the 805-freeway, exit on Olympic Parkway. Drive east for about 3 miles, then make a right turn onto La Media Road. Drive south for about 1 mile until you arrive at Côta Vera. See the location Map for more info about the surrounding area

To kick off the project, Lennar and Shea will be building 562 homes between five different neighborhoods.

• Bluestone by Lennar = 116 Row Townhomes
• Trevi by Lennar = 108 Triplex townhomes
• Whitmore by Lennar = 106 single family motor court homes
• Lucca by Shea Homes = 117 single family homes
• Savona by Shea Homes = 115 single family homes

There will not be any single level homes, however the Trevi Plan 1 by Lennar will live as a single level on the second story. The garage will be on the first floor and then all the living area/beds/baths will be on a single level above the garage.

Pre-sales will begin the summer of 2021 and the Model Homes will be available to tour in the Spring of 2022.

We are hoping to have our first few families move into the neighborhood by Spring of 2022.

About 10 years when speaking about Côta Vera only, but 20 years when speaking to the Community Association build out. The Côta Vera Community Association will include Village 9 & 10, east of the 125 freeway (new development not yet named). Please contact a sales agent for more information on this.

The Chula Vista Elementary School District serves all elementary schools in our area and the Sweetwater Union High School District serves the Middle and High Schools. See the location Map for more info about the surrounding areas.

The district always has the authority to change school boundaries at any time, but currently, our Elementary School students will attend Wolf Canyon Elementary, our Middle School students will attend Rancho Del Rey Middle School, and our High School students will attend Olympian High School. A future elementary school will be built in the second phase of Cota Vera (timing yet to be determined). See the location Map for more info about the surrounding areas.

The final land plan is still underway but currently Côta Vera will include many neighborhood parks and pocket parks. The community will also offer trails and paseos throughout the neighborhoods. Côta Vera will eventually connect to the overall Otay Ranch trail system and is also adjacent to the Otay Valley Regional Park, which extends all the way to the ocean. HomeFed Corporation, the developer of Côta Vera, is contributing to the preservation and restoration of the Otay River Valley in conjunction with various environmental agencies. See the location Map for more info about the surrounding areas.

The heart of the community will be the Central District which will include the Central Square, the Central Bark Park, the Central Pop-Up, and The Shops at Central District. There will also be the Neighborhood Pool, an elementary school and pocket parks throughout the neighborhoods. It’s all brought to life by a robust calendar of events, classes, resources and gatherings crafted by our own lifestyle team. See the location Map for more info about the surrounding areas.

The Central District will include 4-6 neighborhood shops, 1 of which will be built for a restaurant. Just beyond the Central District you’ll find larger retail opportunities which are yet to be determined. See the location Map for more info about the surrounding areas.
