Toll Brothers is developing the Stockman apartment complex at the intersection of Arizona Avenue and Warner Road in North Chandler. The site will feature a variety of floor plans, including studio, one-bedroom, two-bedroom, and three-bedroom units.

Why it matters

This development transforms a former vehicle dealership into a residential space three miles from downtown Chandler. It represents a significant shift in North Chandler's land use as the area transitions from automotive retail to multi-family housing.

Toll Brothers acquired the former Earnhardt Auto Centers site for $12.5 million in November 2025. The project is currently scheduled for completion in late 2027.

The players

Toll Brothers

A national luxury homebuilder known for developing high-end residential communities and multi-family projects.

Earnhardt Auto Centers

A long-standing regional automotive dealership group that previously operated the site on Arizona Avenue.

The details

The development will integrate lifestyle amenities such as a fitness center, a dedicated coworking lounge, and a pool. Each residential unit will include private balconies, repurposing the former dealership lot for long-term density. Construction involves a full site redevelopment to accommodate these residential features and common spaces.

Timeline

  1. November 2025: Toll Brothers purchased the land from Earnhardt Auto Centers.

  2. Late 2027: Construction is expected to be finished.

The Home Front

The Stockman development highlights a broader market trend of converting aging commercial corridors into high-density housing options. This approach helps address urban space constraints while modernizing infrastructure in established neighborhoods.

If you live in North Chandler, monitor city planning notices regarding traffic impacts or infrastructure upgrades as the 2027 completion date approaches. Consider reviewing local zoning records if you are concerned about how this transition might affect property density in your immediate area.

The takeaway

Large-scale redevelopment of former retail sites can change the character of a neighborhood, so staying engaged with city project updates is useful for nearby residents. Keep an eye on future municipal announcements for permit filings or finalized site plans as construction progresses.
