+ Builders unveil new Hi Hat Ranch designs
Anchor Homes, Gibraltar Homes and John Cannon Homes have finalized designs for The Forest at Hi Hat Ranch.

Each of the builders selected a home site and worked with the community’s Architectural Review Committee to ensure their designs create a cohesive environment without duplicating a particular elevation or style.

Anchor’s Savoy: This 6,560-square-foot, two-story home features his-and-her offices, a grand salon with 14-foot ceilings, a wine cellar and butler pantry. The master bedroom is located downstairs. Two bedrooms with private baths along with a game room and a reading loft are located upstairs. A club room/media room is located on the first level beyond the family room and adjacent to the expansive outdoor living area.

Gibraltar’s Muir Woods: This two-story home features a grand foyer, formal living room, wine cellar with bar and pass-thru window to lanai, formal dining room, den, four bedrooms, three full baths and two half-baths. The first floor outdoor living area has a large open dining area and optional outdoor kitchen, pool and spa. 

Gibraltar’s Sequoia: This is a single-story home featuring a gracious entry foyer, formal living, wine cellar with bar and pass-thru window to lanai, formal dining room, den, four bedrooms with private baths and a pool/guest bath. The outdoor living area features large dining area and optional kitchen, pool and spa. 

John Cannon Homes’ Taronga: This design features five bedrooms, four baths, living room, dining room, family room, game room, study, kitchen with breakfast area, two lower-level lanais and a deck on the upper level along with an oversized three-car motor court.
