There Are Communities and Then There is Esencia
In the heart of Beautiful Rancho Mission Viejo, CA is where we discovered the incomparable community of Esencia. Describing the atmosphere of this amazing residential development requires descriptives such as serene, abundant and full of life. The community farm along with the herb and vegetable gardens produce the freshest of foods for residents.
This makes for a true farm to table experience, providing children and adults alike memories to last a lifetime. The grounds of Esencia feature a coffee shop, walking paths and incredible playgrounds that seem to be endless. There's also citrus tree lined sidewalks where people connect with nature and establish friendships with neighbors.
From the moment we arrived, we recognized Esencia as a community that takes great pride in providing residents more than a neighborhood, it's about a living experience. A special place to call home where joy and happiness create fun times for all.
