Sonoran Gate: Model Homes Near Sonoran Preserve Open
Taylor Morrison will unveiled seven model homes in a new North Phoenix neighborhood, Sonoran Gate, when it opened to the public Saturday, Oct. 28.
The 255-home community sits on a secluded 80-acre site surrounded by State Trust Land and sandwiched between two sections of the untouched beauty of the Sonoran Desert Preserve, just east of Sonoran Foothills. Plans call for a gated community with an 1,800-square-foot community ramada, play structures with shade, a splash pad and walking paths. [Related: The Story of Sonoran Gate’s Land]
“Sonoran Gate offers a prime location in the High Sonoran Desert so residents can enjoy the beauty and serenity of the area with close access to major causeways for a convenient commute to area employment hubs,” said Todd Hahn, vice president of sales and marketing for Taylor Morrison’s Phoenix division.

Three collections of homes will be offered:
The Discovery Collection One- and two-story floor plans ranging between 1,570–2,936 square feet, with three and four bedrooms, a den, two to two-and-a-half baths and two- or three-car garages. Some plans include bonus rooms and additional bedrooms. Homes are priced from the low $300,000s.
