Babcock Ranch is an innovative new town that sets a whole new standard for sustainable, responsible growth. Located in Southwest Florida just north of Fort Myers, Babcock Ranch combines the best of America's great hometown traditions with all the conveniences of today and tomorrow. Babcock Ranch will ultimately include 19,500 homes and six million square feet of commercial space. Sustainability is at the core of everything we do at Babcock Ranch. From the building materials we use to the energy source that powers us and everything else in between, we're minimizing our environmental footprint.

Responsible development started with the land. The Babcock Ranch site plan puts the new town on previously impacted pasture, farm and rock-mined land. If you peel away the master plan at Babcock - what you see is all the areas cleared for pastures and farmlands underneath the planned development, nestled among the areas that will remain forested. To conserve water, Babcock Ranch's landscaping guidelines limit turf coverage to 30% of residential lots and require homeowners to use native, low impact trees and shrubs for 75% of their landscaping.

Production of solar energy at a utility scale is a key part of our sustainability commitment. We partnered with Florida Power & Light (FPL) to ensure that the net production of clean, renewable energy at Babcock Ranch exceeds the total amount the town will consume. Babcock Ranch donated the land for the solar facility - but it is owned and operated by FPL. Residents are billed for the energy they use at the same rates as any other FPL customer. However, homes achieve energy savings through established and reliable building technologies that don't require as much power to operate.

Homes in Babcock Ranch offer a sustainable way of life. From each home's architectural style to its native landscaping and Florida Green Building Coalition Certification, living at Babcock Ranch is a choice that helps our environment for years to come. Babcock Ranch has nine homebuilders offering more than 50 home designs including condominiums, townhomes, twin villas, cottages, single-family executive, manor and custom homes featuring one- and two-story plans, two to six bedrooms, and 1,120 to nearly 5,000 square feet of living space.

The Carolina offers peaceful living in a special place to call home. Two spacious bedrooms separated by a multi-functional den/study, two full bathrooms, and a. Perfect for casual living with 1,564 square feet of space, the Queen is an inviting choice for an attached villa. The Master suite boasts two. The feeling of home inside and out, this 1,355 square feet of perfectly planned living space features 2 large bedrooms + den and 2 full.

We handpicked our builders to ensure that they had the same goals as we do: to build a sustainable town with unparalleled quality of life. Our builders have worked tirelessly to create beautiful model homes that are built with sustainability in mind.

By having Lennar and Pulte builders added to the mix of all the others you have made living in Babcock Ranch City a possibility for young families. Are their plans for a post office at some point?

I love Babcock Ranch. A great place to live and work. Also love the Hatchery for small businesses like my healthy chocolate business. Restaurants are great and my son loves the ice cream shop. Great place to enjoy the outdoors. Reminds me of Mayberry RFD.

We absolutely love Babcock Ranch. There is so much too do and even more coming. This community is like no other. I love the eco friendly, health and wellness promoting feeling I get when we are there and we are looking forward too building a house with Lennar.
