Teravalis in Buckeye: Community and Development Guide
A current guide to Teravalis in Buckeye: what the project is, which villages and neighborhoods are open or planned, the builders, the phases, and the amenity timelines, with each stage kept separate.
The direct answer
Teravalis is a roughly 37,000-acre master-planned community in Buckeye developed by Howard Hughes Holdings, formerly known as Douglas Ranch. As of 2026, the only village open and selling is Floreo, the first village, which spans more than 3,000 acres and held its public grand opening in November 2025. Seven builders are constructing homes there, and amenities are at different stages: some open, some slated for 2026, and some planned for later. Separate what is open, under construction, announced, and proposed before you plan anything.

What is Teravalis?
Teravalis is a large master-planned community in Buckeye, Arizona, developed by Howard Hughes Holdings. It was formerly known as Douglas Ranch. The project spans roughly 37,000 acres and is planned to build out over many years, with the full build-out planned to include a very large number of homes.
Because the project is so large and long-term, the current stage matters more than the ultimate plan. Confirm what is open today with the developer and the City of Buckeye rather than relying on the overall master plan.
Which village is open and selling?
As of 2026, the only village open and selling is Floreo, the first village, which spans more than 3,000 acres. Floreo held its public grand opening in November 2025, and the first residents moved in that month. Future villages are still to come.
The first phase, Floreo, is expected to deliver a substantial number of homes over the next decade, but that is a plan, not a guarantee. Confirm the current sales and construction status with the developer and the builders.
Who are the builders and what neighborhoods are open?
Seven builders are constructing single-family homes in Floreo, with roughly 20 model homes: Century Communities, Courtland Communities, DRB Homes, KB Home, Lennar, Meritage Homes, and New Home Co. Named neighborhoods and collections within Floreo include Manzanita at Teravalis, Agave Springs, and The Traditions at Teravalis.
Builder participation, model availability, and neighborhood names can change, so confirm the current lineup with the developer and the specific builders.
What is the amenity timeline?
Amenities are at different stages. The Echo at Floreo community center is open. The Flourish amenity center is slated to open in 2026. A larger 22-acre amenity campus is planned for 2027. Parks such as Dahlia Park and Poppy Park are part of the community's plan.
These are timelines, not guarantees. Amenity openings can slip, and what is planned is not the same as what is available. Confirm the current status of any amenity that matters to you.
How do you separate proposed, announced, and open?
Proposed
Planned but not yet approved or built. Part of the long-term vision, not available today.
Announced / under construction
Publicly stated or actively being built, but not necessarily available to move into yet.
Open / available
Available now, such as the Floreo village and the Echo at Floreo community center.
Treating everything as available today is the most common mistake with a long-term project. Separate the stages and confirm each one with the developer and the city.
What should you verify before you commit?
Verify the current stage
Confirm which village, neighborhood, and amenity is open, under construction, announced, or proposed.
Verify the builders and homes
Confirm the current builders, models, pricing, and what the base price includes, with each builder.
Verify the rules and fees
Confirm the HOA and district assessments, any special fees, and the rules that affect how you live.
