LGI Homes Expands Presence in California with New Community Launch

On November 17, 2025, LGI Homes, Inc. (NASDAQ: LGIH) announced the upcoming launch of its latest residential community, Orchard Park, located in Shafter, California. This new neighborhood is strategically positioned in the burgeoning Bakersfield market and promises a diverse array of spacious and upgraded homes, designed to offer exceptional value to prospective homebuyers.

Mike Durham, Vice President of Operations for Southern California, expressed enthusiasm for the project, stating, “We’re thrilled to bring Orchard Park to Shafter. We bring affordable, move-in ready homes with everything included, right next to great schools and the best of Kern County living.” This sentiment underscores LGI Homes' commitment to providing accessible housing options in desirable locations.

Orchard Park is ideally situated off the S Central Valley Hwy in Shafter, making it a convenient choice for families. Residents will benefit from proximity to shopping, dining, and major employers, while still enjoying a serene neighborhood atmosphere. The community will feature a well-equipped park that includes a children’s playground, picnic areas, a gazebo, BBQ grills, green open spaces, and outdoor fitness stations, catering to the recreational needs of families.

Additionally, the community's location near designated schools further enhances its appeal for families with children, making it a practical choice for homebuyers looking to settle in a family-friendly environment.

LGI Homes will offer five thoughtfully crafted floor plans at Orchard Park, with sizes ranging from approximately 1,454 to 2,529 square feet. These homes will accommodate up to five bedrooms and three bathrooms, featuring spacious layouts, chef-inspired kitchens, private owner suites, and outdoor living spaces.

Highlighting the new offerings is the Pacifica floor plan, which boasts approximately 2,529 square feet of living space—making it one of the largest designs available in California, just shy of the Pismo plan at 2,533 square feet.

A key selling point for the homes at Orchard Park is the CompleteHome™ package, which includes a range of impressive upgrades at no additional cost. Homebuyers can expect stainless steel kitchen appliances, granite countertops, luxury vinyl plank flooring, modern cabinetry, energy-efficient features, and smart-home technology—all integral components designed to enhance the quality of living.

Homes at Orchard Park will be available starting November 22, 2025, with pricing structures designed to accommodate various budgets, making this community accessible to a broad range of potential buyers.
