Sun Lakes
Homes for Sale

Sun Lakes is one of the East Valley's original active-adult communities, built around four separate golf clubs south of Chandler. As of mid-2026 the median list price runs around $489,000 (about $254/sqft), with prices ranging roughly from the mid-$300s to mid-$500s depending on section, updates, and proximity to the golf course. Homes are taking a bit longer to sell than a year ago — a median of around 135 days on market — which favors buyers willing to negotiate.

Because Sun Lakes has been established since the 1970s, it offers a wider range of price points and home styles than newer active-adult communities, with a well-established social and recreational scene: golf, tennis, pools, and clubhouses across its four sections. It's a strong option for retirees and snowbirds who want an established, walkable community with lower buy-in than some of the newer luxury resort developments.
