Santa Rosa Crossing is a sold-out Centex community of 351 single-family homes on the south side of Maricopa, AZ, in the 85138 zip, behind Copper Sky and Desert Cedars near Highway 347 and Bowlin Road. Built between 2021 and 2023, homes are close to new, three to four bedrooms, about 1,552 to 2,357 square feet, and trade on resale. There is no community pool; the HOA is billed monthly, call for current dues.
Santa Rosa Crossing is a compact, near-new community on the south side of Maricopa, in 85138. Centex built it and has since sold out, so there is no model home to tour and the only homes for sale are the ones owners list. Its location is the headline: it sits right behind the Copper Sky Recreation Complex and Desert Cedars, minutes from parks, gyms, and the Town Center retail corridor.
This page is the honest guide. What the community is, where it sits, what homes are like, and how to buy or sell here now that the builder is gone.

Santa Rosa Crossing is a private community of 351 single-family homes in 85138, on the south side of Maricopa in Pinal County, near Highway 347 and Bowlin Road. It is sometimes written Santa Rosa Crossings, and it is a separate community from the east-side El Rancho Santa Rosa and Rancho Santa Rosa neighborhoods, despite the similar names. Homes are detached single-family, one and two story. Call 520-838-8037.
Santa Rosa Crossing sits in the south end of 85138, just off John Wayne Parkway, with the commute north and the Copper Sky complex both close by.
Santa Rosa Crossing was built by Centex, a Pulte brand, and it is sold out, so Centex is no longer selling new homes here. That shapes both sides of a deal. When you sell, you are not competing with builder inventory in the community. When you buy, you are limited to what current owners list, so available homes are scarce and the good ones tend to move quickly. Because the homes were built between 2021 and 2023, even on resale they are close to new.
The community is consistent: single-family homes built by one builder in a short window, so styling and finish levels are similar street to street. Sizes run from about 1,552 to 2,357 square feet, three to four bedrooms, two to three baths, one and two story. For a buyer who wants a near-new home without waiting on construction, Santa Rosa Crossing is one of the more turnkey south-side options in 85138.
Santa Rosa Crossing is a private HOA community billed monthly. Dues and the management company can change over time, so confirm the live numbers and the current management contact before you write. We never publish a dues figure that can go stale; call us for the current amount. Inside the community the amenities are a playground, shaded ramada and picnic areas, and a walking and biking path network. There is no community pool, but the Copper Sky Recreation Complex, with pools, a gym, and sports fields, sits a short distance away, so residents lean on city recreation.
Santa Rosa Crossing is in the Maricopa Unified School District, generally served by Saddleback Elementary, Maricopa Wells Middle School, and Maricopa High School. The Governing Board approved new attendance boundaries on December 10, 2025, effective for the 2026-2027 school year, so the assignment depends on your specific street. Call MUSD at 520-568-5100 or contact us, and we will check the address you are considering.
Because the builder is sold out, buying here is a resale game and timing matters. Homes are limited, and the well-priced ones do not sit. The reliable approach is to get on instant alerts so you hear about a Santa Rosa Crossing listing the day it goes active, then tour and write quickly. Have a buyer's agent for built-out communities set that up, including Spanish-speaking representation with David Ruiz.
Selling here carries a quiet advantage: you are no longer competing with the builder. In a sold-out, near-new community, a well-priced and well-presented home can stand out because buyers who want into Santa Rosa Crossing have few options. The work is pricing it right against the handful of recent sales and leaning on the Copper Sky location. Request a comp set from a listing agent for near-new resales or call 520-838-8037.
Small, sold-out communities are where local knowledge pays off most. With few sales to reference and similarly named communities across town, pricing and clarity depend on knowing this specific neighborhood, not a metro-wide average.
