Schaefer Ranch by Toll Brothers - Dublin, CA

Schaefer Ranch by Toll Brothers is a 140-home neighborhood within the larger Schaefer Ranch master-planned development in western Dublin. The Toll Brothers portion was originally approved as Orchid @ Schaefer Ranch and completed after the builder acquired the project from Discovery Builders. Its defining characteristic is its relationship to Dublin Hills Regional Open Space, where trails extend into a 654-acre preserve. The neighborhood also has direct access to I-580 and the broader Tri-Valley transportation network, making recreation and regional mobility central considerations for prospective buyers.

HOMES

Toll Brothers built Schaefer Ranch as single-family detached homes, with four principal designs ranging from approximately 3,300 to 4,020 square feet. Individual resale records show two-story homes with four or five bedrooms, three to five baths and attached garages; architectural examples include Mediterranean and Craftsman treatments. Construction is complete, and the builder's community is sold out, so buyers now enter through the resale market. A 2,750-square-foot Toll Brothers home sold for $1.85 million in March 2026, providing a recent market reference rather than a builder price.

AMENITIES

The Schaefer Ranch HOA's current and recent property records identify greenbelt, park and trail areas among association amenities, with tennis and playground facilities also documented in property listings. These features complement the neighborhood's open-space setting rather than functioning as a private country-club complex. Schaefer Ranch Park, a separate City of Dublin facility, adds a tennis court, basketball court, picnic facilities, play areas and a walking path. Residents also have access to the much larger Dublin Hills regional trail network immediately beyond the neighborhood.
