Fast Facts
Project Description
Deerlake Ranch is a 230-acre hillside property in an affluent neighborhood in the San Fernando Valley region of the County of Los Angeles, just north of the 118 freeway and adjacent to Porter Ranch. When complete, the property will include 314 lots with lot sizes ranging from 5,000 square feet to half-acre equestrian lots. The exclusive foothill community will have spectacular views and a resort-quality pool complex. Most of the community will be gated, and the property will be laced with multi-use and equestrian trails that link to an existing network surrounding the area.
Background
Deerlake Ranch is one of the only remaining single-family development parcels in the San Fernando Valley. Primarily built out from the 1950s to the early 2000s, the San Fernando Valley is approaching full build-out, meaning that Deerlake Ranch presents one of the last opportunities to purchase new upscale homes in the area.
Value Added
Forestar modified the site plan to improve lot segmentation and house fit and added a recreation center and pool complex as a community amenity. In addition, Forestar graded and developed the site, including the constructing two bridges, gatehouses, a rec center and landscaping.
