Oak Ridge Ranches is one of the largest planned residential developments in St. Lucie County, bringing together new neighborhoods, recreational amenities, parks, commercial space, and preserved natural areas within a thoughtfully designed master plan. Located just west of Port St. Lucie, the community is intended to provide a variety of home styles and lifestyles while maintaining significant open space throughout the development.
Future residents are expected to enjoy convenient access to Port St. Lucie’s shopping, dining, healthcare facilities, golf courses, and recreational opportunities, along with Florida’s Turnpike and Interstate 95 for commuting throughout the Treasure Coast and South Florida.
About Oak Ridge Ranches
Oak Ridge Ranches is a planned mixed-use community encompassing approximately 3,200 acres in western St. Lucie County. Current approvals allow for more than 8,000 residential units developed across multiple neighborhoods by several national homebuilders. Plans also include parks, schools, commercial space, recreational facilities, and extensive natural preserves.
The development will be constructed in phases, with individual neighborhoods offering different home collections and amenities. As additional phases are completed, new retail, services, and community facilities are expected to follow.
Development History
Oak Ridge Ranches began moving through the St. Lucie County approval process in 2023, with multiple residential neighborhoods receiving approval throughout late 2024 and early 2025. Several builders are participating in the project, including communities planned by Taylor Morrison, Dream Finders Homes, Meritage Homes, Kolter Land, and K. Hovnanian.
