About Kiley Ranch

the Kiley Ranch Team


This is the Kiley family's homestead, the place where they lived, worked, and played for so much of their lives. The family is deeply involved in the planning and development of Kiley Ranch, and our every decision is guided by their vision of a master-planned community that delivers on the promise of a richer life. To satisfy that vision we're working with designers and builders who share our values, who believe development can be done responsibly without destroying the things we hold so dear. This is the Kiley's legacy to the people of Sparks and we want to make it one that lasts.
