Serrano has about 1,000 acres of land dedicated to open space. This land will always remain a peaceful place that "respects the balance between nature and man". There are miles and miles of trails throughout the area! If you are lucky you'll see some of the area's wildlife: deer, rabbits, wild turkeys, turtles, and even rattlesnakes sometimes. In addition, the Serrano Homeowner's Association has even planted thousands of new oak trees to further beautify the Serrano landscape.

Serrano of El Dorado Hills requires all homes to use recycled water in their front and backyard in order to be environmentally friendly. The recycled water is delivered through purple colored pipes that are clearly labeled and are separate from the drinking water – a system that, according to the Serrano Homeowner's Association, puts Serrano in the forefront of environmentally friendly technology and development. This water system is important to keep the community looking green year-round.
