Mill Creek Residential, a developer, owner-operator and investment manager specializing in premier rental housing across the U.S., announced it has broken ground on Modera Chandler, a contemporary garden-style community in southeast Phoenix.
The community, which will feature 345 spacious apartment homes and a modern farmhouse-style aesthetic, will include seven three-story residential buildings, a refined suite of amenities and a variety of top-tier features and finishes. The community will also feature elevator-served buildings, air-conditioned corridors and integrated garage parking. First move-ins are anticipated for early 2026.
“The city of Chandler is a vibrant, diverse community that continues to emerge as a preferred living destination in the Phoenix area,” said Tyler Wilson, senior managing director of development of the Southwest region for Mill Creek Residential. “Due to the number of large global industry leaders and startups in the area, plus an extensive range of retail, restaurants and neighborhood amenities, the area has become an attractive option for residents looking to live in this thriving community. We are excited to get started on Modera Chandler and look forward to providing residents with a top-of-market living option.”
Situated at 3230 S. Arizona Avenue, Modera Chandler is located just south of E Queen Creek Road and within a short commute of the south Loop 202, which connects to the city’s southern and eastern regions and serves as a gateway to the greater metropolitan area. The community is within walking distance of several retail options, restaurants and three grocery stores, plus walking trails, parks and lakes in the immediate area.
Modera Chandler will offer one-, two- and three-bedroom homes with private patios or balconies, select den layouts and an average home size of 1,005 square feet. Community amenities will include a resort-style swimming pool, hot tub and sauna, grilling area, fire pit, outdoor dining, resident clubhouse, landscaped courtyards, coworking space, onsite pet park, dedicated dog run and a club-quality fitness center featuring cardio equipment and a yoga/Pilates studio. Residents will also have access to controlled-access parking and additional storage options.
