Real Estate Appraisers and Appraisals In
Orange County, City of Laguna Hills
| Home to the upscale
Nellie Gail Ranch residential community, a ranch that sits on a promontory
within the city, Laguna Hills is built on one of the major land grants
developed during the Rancho Era. It is one of the better-known upscale
communities in the state and is not gated. Nellie Gail is a Planned Unit
Development of 1355 lots that consists of a mixture of tract and custom houses,
proving to be difficult appraisals in an equestrian setting, with homes ranging
from 1,700 to more than 10,000 square feet, some of which pose a daunting task
for appraisers. It is one of only a few communities left in Orange County zoned
for large lots and equestrian trails, and joins only Anaheim Hills, Villa Park,
and Orange Park. The community includes several large parks, miles of
equestrian trails and arenas, as well as substantial open space with acres of
trees. The Nellie Gail Ranch has also been mentioned in movies such as
"Wild Things" and even newspaper comics like Bil Keane's "The
Family Circus." Such references usually make fun of the wealth of the
Ranch's inhabitants. |
