12,000 potential homebuyers descend on the Baker Ranch grand opening

 

Set in the scenic foothills of Southern California’s Lake Forest, Baker Ranch offers a variety of single-family homes and townhomes built by luxury homebuilders, Shea Homes and Toll Brothers. Feature highlights include eleven parks, seven pools, tennis courts, children’s play areas, a clubhouse and extensive open space. Gauger + Associates identified these resort amenities as the best way to separate Baker Ranch from the herd of competing master planned communities in Orange County. It informed the foundation for brand positioning, which was centered around the theme of resort living, as reflected by the community’s tagline, “The Resort You Call Home”.
