Babcock Ranch

Babcock Ranch is America's first solar-powered town near Punta Gorda, offering new construction homes from top builders, resort-style amenities, miles of nature trails, and a one-of-a-kind sustainable lifestyle in Southwest Florida.

Welcome to Babcock Ranch

Babcock Ranch is unlike any community in Florida, or the country. Recognized as America's first solar-powered town, this master-planned community near Punta Gorda is redefining what it means to live well. 

 

Powered by an 870-acre solar farm and the nation's largest solar-plus-battery storage system, residents enjoy modern, sustainable living without sacrificing a single comfort. It's no wonder Babcock Ranch has earned its place among the top-selling master-planned communities in the nation.

 

From the moment you arrive, you'll feel the difference. Tree-lined streets, pristine nature preserves, sparkling lakes, and an expansive trail network create a backdrop that feels as much like a nature retreat as it does a thriving neighborhood. Residents enjoy miles of trails for walking, running, and biking, along with parks, resort-style pools, and the beloved PKWY — a signature linear park at the heart of the community. Founder's Square serves as the lively town center, hosting weekly farmers markets, festivals, food trucks, and community events that bring neighbors together year-round.

 

Families are drawn to Babcock Ranch for its A-rated Babcock Neighborhood School, which integrates science, technology, arts, and environmental education into everyday learning. Shopping, dining, and health and wellness services are all available right within the community, making it easy to handle the everyday without ever leaving. And when you're ready to venture out, the beaches of Fort Myers and the charming waterfront of downtown Punta Gorda are just a short drive away.

 

Whether you're looking for a new construction home from one of several premier builders, a quick move-in opportunity, or a custom build on your own terms, Babcock Ranch offers options for a wide range of buyers and lifestyles.
