RIVERSIDE, CA—Spring Mountain Ranch continues to fulfill its promise of bringing 1,500 new residences to the rolling foothills of Riverside as full–scale construction is rapidly underway on roads and future amenities. SMR Ventures, LLC, the developers of Spring Mountain Ranch, remain dedicated to ensuring that the completed masterplan complements the vast preserved natural surroundings that serve as the setting for this inviting luxury enclave, and creates a unique sense of community that has never been seen in the Riverside area. With this goal in mind, Spring Mountain Ranch has selected two highly regarded homebuilders to create the first two neighborhoods within the community. Both neighborhoods are anticipated to open for pre–sales in September 2007.

"Spring Mountain Ranch brings the best of luxury living in a refined yet naturally spectacular setting to Riverside," said Bob Turi, Vice President and Senior Project Manager for Spring Mountain Ranch. "It isn’t everyday that a community of this caliber–with concern for the quality of homes, the preservation of nature, and the celebration of the region’s proud equestrian heritage–comes to Riverside. As anticipation grows stronger for our Information Center opening in September, we want to encourage everyone to log on to our newly launched website at TheSpringMountainRanch.com for more information and to register on the rapidly growing Interest List." The first two neighborhoods at Spring Mountain Ranch will include a stunning collection of 210 single–family detached homes, with approximately 2,367 to 3,814 square feet of living space, four to six bedrooms and two and one-half to six baths. At Spring Mountain Ranch, residents will enjoy a pristine setting adjoining Box Springs Mountain Park and the Box Springs Mountain Reserve. From the breathtaking views that take full advantage of the surrounding hillsides, to the unsurpassed recreational possibilities and its convenient central location, Spring Mountain Ranch simply has it all. A vast network of trails meander throughout the community and accommodate resident equestrians, cyclists, and hikers. The community will offer a community equestrian staging center, honoring Riverside’s proud equestrian heritage. Over 300 acres of preserved, undeveloped land invite Spring Mountain Ranch residents to explore and appreciate the natural open space that’s just outside their front door. Plus, a sprawling community park will be the perfect place for friends, neighbors, and children to gather together to play, relax, and celebrate special occasions. A new elementary school right within community borders further adds to the quality of life residents will enjoy for years to come. With bustling downtown Riverside just a short drive away, every imaginable amenity from great restaurants and shops to cultural and entertainment possibilities are all easily accessible. Downtown Riverside promotes a vibrant community spirit throughout the year with fun events such as the Live at White Park music series, Downtown Wednesday Nights, Riverside Arts Walk on First Thursdays, Farmer’s Market on Saturdays, Riverside Jazz Festival, Fanning the Creative Flame, and The Riverside Festival of Lights to commemorate the holidays. Various museums, art galleries, and performing arts theaters add even more cultural flair to the downtown Riverside area. There are also over 60 dining establishments to choose from, as well as new boutiques, spas, upscale salons, and health and fitness facilities. Known as the "Downtown of the Inland Empire," Riverside itself is one of the fastest growing metropolitan cities in the United States and has been recognized as one of America’s Most Livable Communities by Partners for Livable Communities. Creating a community that combines a convenient location near everything that makes Riverside so dynamic and residences that blend seamlessly with the area’s breathtaking natural landscape is a great undertaking, and it is one that is being skillfully achieved at Spring Mountain Ranch. It is this careful planning and tremendous foresight that is destined to make Spring Mountain Ranch Riverside’s new address of distinction.
