A sense of place

Banning Lewis Ranch offers residents easy access to parks, trails and open spaces woven throughout the community, an outdoor pool and fitness center at the Ranch House, a variety of events — from free summer concerts to a farmers’ market, July 4th fireworks and cookies with Santa — and thoughtful amenities, including a dog park and places for friends to get together. The common denominator of all these perks? The opportunity to connect!

An engaged lifestyle is close at hand, whatever your age. This is because master developer Oakwood Homes, that assumed ownership of Banning Lewis Ranch in 2012, makes the spirit of community a priority! They are committed not only to homes, but to homeowners, too, resulting in Banning Lewis Ranch ranking as the No. 1-selling home community in the Pikes Peak region for the past nine years!

Residents of Banning Lewis Ranch get to know their neighbors, while their children will find plenty of playmates; the opportunity to establish lifelong friendships are an inherent part of the package!

Opportunities for living in Banning Lewis Ranch are expanding. New models available this year include two new collections from Oakwood: Ascent (floorplans range from 1,264 to 1,587 square feet, with two to four bedrooms and two to two-and-a-half baths), priced from the low $300s; and Coach House (models feature three to four bedrooms and two to two-and-a-half baths from 1,436 to 2,165 square feet), priced from the high $300s. Plus, Richmond American Homes has joined the community, offering ranch and two-story homes starting in the upper $400s.
