Banning Lewis Ranch
Banning Lewis Ranch
Banning Lewis Ranch spans over 21,000 acres just north of Colorado Springs. It was originally a successful cattle-ranch in the mid 1900’s, ran by Raymond W Lewis and Ruth Banning Lewis. In 1988 Colorado Springs City limits were expanded to include Banning Lewis Ranch in efforts to turn it into a residential community.
The master-planned community brings new construction homes and outdoor amenities together for neighborhood living. With plans to grow over the next 10-15 years this is the perfect place to build a home. Residents have views of the Front Range and Pike Peaks mountains surrounded by ranch-style grasslands.
