The Ranch Plan provides for multiple residential villages within its 20,868-acre expanse. Each one is unique—while sharing and expanding all the ranch-wide activities and amenities we’re known for. Our first village, Sendero, brought South Orange County an abundance of RanchLife programs and ageless living through exclusive Gavilán 55+ amenities, homes and events. While Esencia, our current village, offers even more home choices and lifestyle opportunities on an elevated ridgeline in the heart of The Ranch.
An exciting community lifestyle has been a priority for us since the beginning. That’s why we created RanchLife, our approach to programming, resident-led clubs, events and partnerships that connect you to the surrounding natural habitat, trails, clubhouses and each other. And with new happenings each week, there’s always something fun to try!
