About Towne Ranch

Towne Ranch is a residential neighborhood in central Claremont, bounded roughly by Mountain Avenue to the west, Foothill Boulevard to the south, Indian Hill Boulevard to the east, and the college corridor to the north. The neighborhood's streets carry university-inspired names: Tulane, Wellesley, Purdue, Oxford, Delaware, Lafayette, and Hood, among others. That naming is not accidental. Towne Ranch sits at the edge of the Claremont Colleges cluster, and homes here put residents within walking distance of one of the country's most concentrated academic environments.

 

The neighborhood sits south of the Claraboya and Highpoint hillside communities, placing it at the transition point between central Claremont and the San Gabriel foothills corridor to the north. It is directly adjacent to Claremont High School, making it one of the few Claremont residential areas with that kind of proximity to CUSD's flagship campus. School attendance boundaries shift periodically; buyers should verify the specific address using the CUSD School Locator Tool.

 

Homes in Towne Ranch are primarily single-family residences, ranging from mid-century floor plans on larger lots to substantially updated properties that now command well over $1 million. The neighborhood has seen consistent appreciation since 2020, with the median close price moving from the mid-$700s to $1,222,500 in 2025. The most recent sale, 633 Purdue, closed in March 2026 at $1,725,000 — an all-time neighborhood record and 11.3% over asking.
