Sienna Canyon
The Sienna Canyon community was developed by Coventry Homes and consists of 189 homes which were built between 1998 and 2000. In November of 1998, which is the date of the earliest builder price list that I have in my files, the pricing began at $274,900 for the 2548 square foot Borgata model and went as high as $341,900 for the largest two-story model, the Talavera.
There were six different models (with a total of eight floor plan variations) ranging in size from 2548 square feet to 3808 square feet. Each model was offered in three different exterior “elevations” and also had a number of customizable exterior options which gave the community a more varied and attractive look. A 3 car garage was a standard feature of each home.
The community is located at the very end of 105th Street, in between the communities of Mirador and Sonoran Estates. Many of the homesites are adjacent to a wash or natural area open space with mountain views.
About Builder
Coventry Homes began building here in the Valley in the mid 1980’s and had developed a strong independent reputation as a builder of quality housing with intelligent floor plans, striking elevations and choice locations.
Then in the mid 1990’s, Coventry Homes became part of the larger Del Webb family of builders. Del Webb was a national real estate company headquartered in Phoenix which had been actively constructing residential housing since 1928. It was generally considered to be the nation’s premier builder of active adult communities and some of its better known developments were Sun City, Terravita, Bellasera, and Anthem in New River. Here in McDowell Mountain Ranch, Coventry/Del Webb was the builder of two highly respected communities, Sienna Canyon and Trovas.
In May of 2001, the Del Webb Corporation merged with Pulte Homes of Bloomfield, Michigan. Pulte Homes, a Fortune 500 company, has been honored as “America’s Best Builder”, and was named the 2002 Builder of the Year by Professional Builder Magazine. You can visit them online at www.pulte.com.
