Ladera Ranch's only gated community
Covenant Hills Village is the only gated neighborhood in the master-planned community of Ladera Ranch. One of the largest neighborhoods, with 170 homes occupying more than 700 acres, Covenant Hills Village comes with views of orchards, pastures and nearby valleys. “Covenant Hills Village is the more exclusive area,” says Amy Sims, a Realtor at Coldwell Banker Commercial Realtor specializing in Ladera Ranch properties. “It’s a 24-hour gate-guarded neighborhood, so it feels like its own thing.” While residents have full access to all of Ladera Ranch’s amenities, they also have easy access to Covenant Hills Village Club, a resort-style clubhouse and pool.
Covenant Hills Village is nestled in South Orange County, perfectly positioned between the stunning California coastline and the scenic rolling hills of the Saddleback Valley.
The Covenant Hills Village Clubhouse offers elegant amenities, a resort-style pool, scenic views, and a welcoming space for gatherings and events.

New homes in classic styles
The neighborhood was developed from 1999 through the early 2000s, and Covenant Hills Village homes were built in classic Spanish, Italian, Craftsman and Colonial styles though some early buyers built custom properties. Ladera Ranch can connect buyers with builders and developers, but most choose from available stock. These spacious homes average 4,700 square feet and sit on lush lawns, shrouded by manicured crape myrtles and palm trees. The exclusivity and amenities come at a price, as homes sell from $1.1 million to $4.2 million, more than double the value of the average L.A. area home. “For every purchase you make in the community, there is a Ladera Ranch enhancement fee of a quarter of 1% of the purchase price,” says Sims.
Covenant Hills Village features Spanish-style homes with red tile roofs, stucco exteriors, and charming wrought iron details.
Classic Colonial homes inside the Covenant Hills gates boast symmetrical facades, brick exteriors, and grand columns for a timeless, traditional feel.

The clubhouse, which can be rented, has a library, renovated kitchen and a great room. “All of our pools and tennis courts are open to everyone, but people like being close to them,” says Simms.
Arroyo Park features a well-maintained playground, making it a great spot for families with young children to enjoy outdoor fun.
With its clean, safe environment and beautiful landscape, Oso Grande Park is a beloved community spot for leisure and recreation.
