Sun City Festival in Buckeye...

Del-Webb's newest active adult community open to buyers, from the Arizona Republic, reports that Sun City Festival in Buckeye, Del Webb's newest active adult community has opened for sales. The 3,100-acre master-planned community is located on the Sun Valley Parkway, west of the city of Surprise. It will have 7,200 homes, two 18-hole golf courses and a 31,000 square foot recreation center with a resort-style pool. Until unit models open in July, buyers can visit a preview center in Sun City Grand to view the floorplans available in the new community. Sun City Festival will take seven years to build out. Del Webb will unveil 23 new active-adult communities around the country by the end of this year in response to the growing baby boomer population who are heading into retirement. In January, Pulte, the parent company of Del Webb, closed on 4,100-acres east of the Sun Valley Parkway in Buckeye for its third all-ages Anthem community. "This area will be a city someday," said Ed Martin of Pulte Del Webb. "All of that land is either spoken for or is being entitled, so we were fortunate to get in early." If you haven't seen what's happening along the Sun Valley Parkway, you should take a drive and see all the explosive activity in this hot spot market area!
