Since 2018, multiple homebuilders have been hammering away in Folsom Ranch, an up-and-coming master-planned community about 4 miles from Downtown Folsom. The 3,500-acre space, just beyond U.S. Route 50, is now a landscape of suburban-style sub-communities with luxury homes, public parks and easy access to nearby shopping and dining. “The communities here are great – the views of the surrounding area are nice, and they have a very diversified culture,” says Real Estate Agent Shankar Pathi with Real Estate Source, who has over 5 years of experience and lives in Folsom. The neighborhood is also about 5 miles from the Intel Folsom campus, the largest employer in the area. “They’ve been in Folsom for many years, and their employees like living close by.”

Celebrating each community with amenities
Most of the communities in Folsom Ranch are individual and come with their own amenities. “So far, there are clubhouses in the Russell Ranch community, and the 55 and up one. Having their own amenities helps create a community,” Pathi says. These clubhouses are outfitted with fitness centers, outdoor pools and multi-use sports courts. Russell Ranch even has an association that puts on social events throughout the year.
