Cimarron Hills
Cimarron Hills, which was developed by Geoffrey H. Edmunds, a Toll Brothers Inc. company is comprised of 3 separate and distinct communities; The Villas, The Enclave and The Vistas which contain a total of 272 homes, all of which are single level and are grouped in sections according to price and size.
In The Villas, there were 113 home sites and initially six different models to choose from; however the Sidonia and Corella floor plans were later eliminated. These homes ranged in size from 2237 square feet to 2651 square feet and, when they were introduced in May of 1998, pricing began at $269,975 and went as high as $304,975 for the largest home, the Sevilla.
In The Enclave, a community of 106 homes, there were five different models offered. In March of 1998, which is the date of the earliest builder price list that I have in my files, prices began at $296,975 for the 2659 square foot Frontera model and went as high as $342,975 for the largest model, the San Rafael with 3,393 square feet.
The Vistas offered 53 homes all located on the same street, Karen Drive. There were six different models to choose from ranging in size from 3,035 square feet for the Palma to the 3,744 square foot Montilla. My earliest price list dates from June of 1998 when prices started at $365,975 and went as high as $401,975.
This community is located just to the west of Cimarron Ridge, another Geoffrey Edmunds community which offers the same floor plans as Cimarron Hills. It is bordered on the north and south by large expanses of natural area open space with both city light and mountain views.
Cimarron Hills is a guard gated community and there is an additional homeowner’s association with monthly fees that include the cost of this security feature. It also includes the use of the private recreation center which has a spa, a negative edge pool, a fitness center, BBQ’s, tennis courts and spectacular views.
About The Builder
The original builder of the enclave, Geoffrey H. Edmunds & Associates, has actually been the Arizona subsidiary of nationally known Toll Brothers since 1995 and, finally, in 2002, the Edmunds name was formally jettisoned and the company is now known exclusively as Toll Brothers.
However, Edmunds was actually started by its namesake. Geoffrey was a Colorado native who graduated from ASU in 1963 and subsequently went to work for the Del Webb Corporation as well as several other local builders. Then in 1971, with $10,000 in start up capital and 10 employees (half of whom were family members), he set out to build something for himself. Thirty years later, Edmunds became one of the most recognized and respected nameplates in the Valley.
The company received hundreds of awards for excellence including the Home Builders Association of Central Arizona’s MAME Grand Award, presented to the home builder who best excels at new product design, interior design and creating new home communities. The Geoffrey H. Edmunds Company was also named both Home Builder of the Year and Custom Home Builder of the Year.
The new parent company, Toll Brothers, has an equally prestigious record. It has won the three most coveted awards in the homebuilding industry: America’s Best Builder, National Builder of the Year, and the National Housing Quality Award. Toll Brothers’ unwavering commitment to excellence is further reflected in the many other awards the company has earned, including the Award for Construction Excellence and the Build America Beautiful Award for outstanding achievement in recycling. Toll Brothers is proud to have been recognized for its dedication to quality and customer service.
Toll Brothers is traded on the NYSE and their symbol is TOL.Their offices are located at 14350 North 87th Street, Scottsdale AZ and they can be reached by phone at 480.624.3000.
