William Ryan Homes Opens Presales at Silver Cross, Bringing Flexible Home Designs to Arizona's San Tan Valley

New Florence-area community offers 11 floor plans, optional RV garages, multigenerational living and energy-efficient construction, with pricing from $480,900.

CHANDLER, AZ, UNITED STATES, October 14, 2026 /EINPresswire.com/ -- William Ryan Homes has announced that presales are underway at Silver Cross, a new residential community in the Florence and San Tan Valley area of Arizona. The community introduces a collection of 11 home designs that accommodate a range of household needs, from multigenerational living to additional vehicle storage and flexible spaces for work, recreation, and everyday life.

Starting prices begin at $480,900, with floor plans ranging from 1,997 to 3,501 square feet.

The opening expands William Ryan Homes' presence in the Phoenix metropolitan area and provides another new construction option for buyers seeking spacious homes in the growing southeastern Valley.

Home Designs That Accommodate Changing Household Needs

As households evolve, buyers increasingly look for homes that can adapt to different stages of life. Silver Cross addresses these needs through a variety of floor plans and optional configurations.

Select designs offer private accommodations for extended family members, including casita-style multigenerational suites. Depending on the floor plan, buyers may also find ground-floor owner's bedrooms, separate guest accommodations, and bonus rooms that can serve multiple purposes.

These features allow homeowners to create living arrangements that balance shared family spaces with individual privacy.

Another distinguishing option at Silver Cross is the availability of RV garages on select home designs. These expanded garages provide additional storage opportunities for recreational vehicles, oversized vehicles, and other equipment.

Together, the floor plan choices give buyers greater flexibility when selecting a home that supports their lifestyle.

Energy Performance Is a Key Part of the Community

William Ryan Homes has incorporated energy-efficient construction practices into the Silver Cross home collection.

The builder uses the Home Energy Rating System (HERS) Index to measure energy performance. A lower HERS score indicates a more energy-efficient home relative to the index's reference home.

Published HERS ratings for 10 of the 11 Silver Cross floor plans range from 38 to 47, reflecting the builder's focus on reducing energy consumption while maintaining indoor comfort.

Energy-saving construction features include insulation systems, high-performance windows, and efficient mechanical equipment designed to help homes perform in Arizona's desert climate.

For buyers comparing new construction options in Phoenix, Arizona, these ratings provide a measurable way to evaluate expected energy performance. Actual utility costs will depend on household usage, weather, utility rates, and other factors.

Eleven Floor Plans Provide a Range of Choices

The Silver Cross home collection includes both single-story and multilevel living options, with a variety of layouts and available features.

The Cypress floor plan begins at 1,997 square feet, with pricing starting at $480,900. At the larger end of the collection, the Willow offers 3,501 square feet, with starting prices of $565,900.

Additional designs include the Ash, Juniper, Sycamore, Encanto, Cottonwood, Cholla, Arcadia, Hermosa, and Papago.

Buyers can explore the different layouts, compare available options, and identify designs that meet their space requirements and preferences.
