ABOUT
Solera at Johnson Ranch
A very popular Del Webb community that is part of the greater master-planned community of Johnson Ranch. The remote location makes it more affordable, but for those who can use Mesa-Gateway Airport, Solera is only about 30 minutes away.
Overview
Solera at Johnson Ranch by Del Webb is a 55+ golf retirement community, located within the larger multi-generational master planned community of Johnson Ranch. While Solera looks and feels like a world apart, there are in fact conveniences close by, so it’s easy to get groceries, go to the pharmacy, etc.
The gated Solera community has its own 10,000 SqFt clubhouse with great amenities and is strictly for Solera residents and their guests. However, Solera residents have full access to all of the amenities at Johnson Ranch, which is great if you have the grand kids visiting. A series of small foothills separates Solera from the larger Johnson Ranch master planned community.
The homesites at Solera line the foothills and the Johnson Ranch Golf Course. In fact, some of the homes at Solera back right up to the foothills, giving those few lucky homeowners a dramatic view of untouched desert right in their back yards.
Solera at Johnson Ranch Real Estate
Only four floor plans were built at Solera Johnson Ranch. All homes are single-level 2BR, 2BA or better with a 2-car garage, and range from 1,400 – 1,900 sq. ft.
Del Webb offered better than average standard features, like staggered maple cabinets, Corian countertops, roll-out shelves, gas stub to oven/range, etc., so every home is nicely outfitted, even if owners opted for the builder’s “standards”.
None of the homes were originally offered with fully fenced backyards, but the HOA allows block wall fencing for those who want it, provided the neighbors don’t object and you’re not blocking someone else’s views. If you have pets, or prefer more privacy, you might get lucky and find a house that already has a fully fenced yard.
About the San Tan Valley Area
San Tan Valley is home to nearly 100,000 residents that appreciate the benefits of small town living. This area used to be called Queen Creek, but “Queen Creek” spanned two different counties, Pinal County and Maricopa County (where Phoenix is). The Pinal County side of Queen Creek was renamed San Tan Valley. The Queen Creek/San Tan Valley areas are among the fastest-growing areas in the country.
The Johnson Ranch area is somewhat remote and the nearest freeway is about 20 minutes away. It will take about 30-35 minutes from Mesa or Chandler, and up to 1 hour and 20 minutes to the Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. For those people who can fly Allegiant or Frontier in and out of Mesa-Gateway Airport, and/or who prefer the small town atmosphere, Solera is a great option because you’ll find that prices are a bit lower here than in the more “central” areas.
