GOODYEAR, Ariz. (Dec. 11, 2025) – Estrella, one of the largest master-planned communities in the Southwest, is welcoming three new collections of homes from Lennar, a national leader in homebuilding.
The Premier, Summit, and Discovery collections are now actively selling with models opening December 19 in the Montecito village at Estrella. Prices range from $368,990 to $454,990. Located at 18594 W. Maplewood Drive, Montecito at Estrella offers thoughtfully designed single-family homes that meet the diverse needs of modern singles, couples, and families.
Among the offerings is Lennar’s innovative Next Gen® design, which features a main home plus an attached private suite complete with its own living space, bedroom, bath, laundry, and kitchen. With access to the garage and side yard, the Next Gen® design provides “two homes under one roof,” separate yet connected living spaces ideal for multigenerational living or flexible lifestyle needs.
“We firmly believe in Estrella, and with the West Valley’s booming economy, coupled with Estrella’s well-planned infrastructure and vibrant community spirit, we’re confident this is an ideal place for families to call home,” said Jeff Gunderson, Senior Vice President of Land Operations for Lennar. “By introducing our Premier, Summit, and Discovery collections here, we’re offering thoughtfully designed homes that meet the diverse needs of today’s buyers.”
In 2024, Lennar purchased 359 lots at Estrella as part of a larger acquisition totaling 508 homesites. Another homebuilder also acquired lots in Montecito, underscoring the strong demand for new housing in Goodyear, one of the fastest-growing communities in the U.S.
Nestled in the foothills of the Sierra Estrella Mountains south of I-10, Estrella offers residents exclusive access to two residents’ clubs with resort-style pools, fitness centers, restaurants, and a water park area for kids. The community also features a public Championship 18-hole Nicklaus Design golf course and is adjacent to the 19,000-acre Estrella Regional Park.
Estrella is located in the bustling West Valley, in one of the fastest-growing communities in the U.S. The new neighborhoods will offer a variety of home styles and floor plans to meet the diverse needs and preferences of modern singles, couples, and families.
“Lennar has built its reputation on delivering homes that combine thoughtful design with enduring quality. At Montecito at Estrella, we’re proud to continue that tradition by offering innovative homes that redefine how families live together, with flexible spaces tailored to today’s lifestyles,” said Jeff Zimmerman, Vice President of Development for Estrella Development Company.
