Curb Appeal: Lavender's Architecture Story

Think of your home as the ultimate storyteller. Every corner, every wall, holds the echoes of laughter, the quiet moments of reflection, and all the precious memories you make.

And beyond our walls lies rich history, giving our houses stories of their own. Lavender at Rancho Mission Viejo is designed to pay homage to the land the homes are built on, embodying the Ranch’s deep origins while embracing the architectural diversity of Southern California.

New Mission: Sun-Drenched, Storied, and Stunning

Inspired by Old California’s historical 18th Century Mission Architecture, this style is rooted in some of its more historic and distinctive details. The use of curved elements, from the graceful arched accents to the distinctive circular vent, are key characteristics of this unmistakable design. Smooth, often sun-drenched, stucco walls paired with distinctive terracotta roof tiles reflect heat and radiating timelessness.

Rancho Adobe: Laid-Back Living with Natural Style

Embrace the warm, earthy color scheme and mixed materials inspired by California’s Spanish mission heritage. The use of brick or stone evokes a sense of tradition, permanence, and warmth. Windows are framed with a slightly darker trim, providing a subtle but effective outline that enhances their presence. And, for that extra touch of exterior charm, black gooseneck sconces artfully enhance the exterior.

Ranch Monterey: Classic Lines, Fresh Perspective

Defining these homes’ streamlined aesthetic are its horizontal siding accents and the understated presence of its simple gable roofs. Clean lines and proportions weave together historical elements and modern flare in effortless harmony. The signature neutral color scheme gets a pop of color and texture to the façade with the shutters on select plans.
