About Sterling Grove
Golf, a clubhouse and new homes behind the gates
Sterling Grove is a 780-acre, staff-gated community by Toll Brothers in Surprise, near Cotton Lane and Cactus Road just west of Loop 303. It opened in 2020 on a former working farm and is planned for about 2,200 homes, with 55+ collections and all-age collections behind the same gates.
Toll Brothers builds every home here, from condos and lock-and-leave villas to estate homes, in one- and two-story designs. The 20,000-square-foot clubhouse sits on a 10-acre amenity center. Before you buy new, read my guide to buying new construction.
“Sterling Grove is a private-club lifestyle behind a 24/7 staffed gate, with a Nicklaus Design golf course, an award-winning clubhouse and brand-new Toll Brothers homes. With both 55+ and all-age neighborhoods and full social club access for every homeowner, it is a must-see for relocating buyers who want luxury and community in one place.”
