Tri Pointe Homes

Queen Creek, AZ

June 2026

Emberly is a collection of 42 single-story homes by Tri Pointe Homes in Gilbert, Arizona. Three floor plans, Aurora, Calida, and Lustre, span 4,587 to 5,137 square feet on home sites averaging 110 x 137 feet. The homes are 90 feet wide, which Tri Pointe notes to be unique within its Arizona portfolio. At that scale, the plans have room for multiple covered outdoor living zones, 4- to 6-bay garages, strong separation between gathering spaces and private retreats, and elevated everyday functionality and flexibility that reads like a custom home. The community targets buyers seeking premium, large-scale single-story living. Demand has been very strong since opening in February 2026, with 21 sales recorded as of June 2026. Prices start at $1.3 million.

Emberly's 32-acre gated site contains 42 home sites that average 16,051 square feet and get as large as 28,000 square feet. According to the builder, home sites on the back of the property are the most desirable, as they back up to the large open space and mountains. A central green space with a playground sits at the heart of the community, while the southern open space features a trail network that wraps around a basketball court, ramada, and cornhole area, bringing recreation into the gated community.

Tri Pointe worked with Bassenian Lagoni Architects to design Emberly. Three architectural styles, Ranch, Vineyard, and Farmhouse, draw from the agricultural roots that historically shaped this part of the valley. The community incorporates clean rooflines, natural materials, grounded massing, and design elements that feel connected to the surrounding landscape and nearby mountain ranges. The tour begins with the Calida, which is modeled in the Vineyard elevation style that presents a more transitional look with elevated gable details, stone applications, modern garage doors, and clean lines.

The Calida is 4,846 square feet with 4 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a 5-bay tandem garage. A key theme of these homes is the ability to support both gathering and privacy, with purposeful separation between bedrooms and shared spaces. Another theme is flexibility. In addition to multiple bonus rooms and the option for multigenerational living, garage configurations can support RV space, storage, hobbies, home-based work, indoor sports, fitness, or recreational equipment. The model showcases several of Tri Pointe's most popular upgrades: double islands in the kitchen, boxed beams and 12’ ceilings with transom windows in the great room, as well as upgraded sliding glass doors throughout the house (dining area, great room, and flex space). This plan is 90 feet wide.

The lounge, positioned off the foyer, is the first space people encounter after entering the front door. The room is merchandised as a dedicated home office with floor-to-ceiling built-ins, integrated task lighting, and a large window that brings in natural light from the front porch beyond. At nearly 5,000 square feet, this home has the square footage to give ancillary spaces like this real presence and privacy from the rest of the home.

The courtyard sits at the heart of the home, enclosed on three sides by the home’s foyer, great room, and secondary bedroom wing. Though this space connects directly to the front porch, it is tucked back and visually guarded from the street by stone pillars along the front elevation, ensuring that this space still feels private.

The great room is the social core of the Calida plan, configured in an “L”-shape that connects to the kitchen, dining area, and covered outdoor living space in a single uninterrupted entertaining sequence. Twelve-foot ceilings with transom windows above the upgraded 20’ multi panel sliding glass doors open the rear wall to the covered outdoor living space, while dark beams cross the ceiling, giving this room grandeur rather than just volume.

The kitchen is modeled with the double-island upgrade, pairing a prep island with a separate seating island that creates a natural gathering point between the kitchen and great room. According to the builder, large islands and double-island kitchen options continue to be highly sought-after features. Another popular feature is the oversized pantry. With entertainment being a primary focus of this home and kitchen, the more utilitarian features are hidden. The door in the corner leads to a large walk-in pantry that is nearly 20 feet long.

Though it’s connected to the rest of the great room, the dining area feels like a formal dining room. Creative Design Consultants, interior designer for all the models, elevated this space with a long dining table anchored by an artistic light fixture. The mirror above the credenza contributes to the home’s seamless indoor-outdoor connection by reflecting the natural light that comes through the center pull sliding glass door and transom windows.

Tucked between the dining area and flex room, this covered outdoor room pulls the outdoors into the home.

Landscape design, courtesy of Gothic Landscape, makes the outdoor living areas feel just as special as the interior. Pavers outlined by turf draw people to the various gathering nodes. This shade structure covers an alfresco dining area, encouraging residents to maximize the backyard throughout the year.

The combination of a covered living area, pool, shade structure, and fire pit within a single backyard reflects the layered outdoor programming Tri Pointe built into the Emberly plans, treating the backyard as a sequence of outdoor rooms rather than a single undifferentiated space.

The plans at Emberly were informed heavily by feedback from Tri Pointe’s sales team and from the response at Domain at Waterston, another successful wide-product Gilbert community with similar square footage and expected buyer interest. In addition to designing ample space for entertainment, indoor-outdoor living, and flexible lifestyle, a driving factor was supporting separation between private and gathering spaces. The primary suite, which occupies its own corner of the home, is buffered from the great room by a small vestibule and private retreat.

The home exudes luxury throughout, but especially in the primary bath. The model showcases an upgraded shower with a frameless entry that seamlessly connects an extended drying area to the shower. The freestanding tub, which comes standard in the home, rounds out the spa-like experience.

Even in a home exceeding 4,800 square feet, the desire for a cozy, tucked-away space remains. NHTI's 25 Trends for 2025 report identified the “Home as a Warm Hug” as one of the defining forces in residential design, with buyers increasingly seeking rooms to get away and relax. That trend continues to ring true and doesn’t diminish at larger square footages. The primary suite retreat is adjacent to the primary suite and is designed to serve as a dedicated wind-down space away from the household's shared gathering areas.

Flexibility is a key driver of the floor plan design at Emberly. The builder wanted to ensure that these homes could adapt to evolving lifestyle needs – and this flex room is a direct solution. The space could be a lounge as is seen here, a home gym, or even a formal office with an optional door for added privacy.

The four secondary bedrooms sit in their own bedroom wing, connected by a hallway off the great room. They each have a walk-in closet, and two of them have en-suite baths.

Calida Secondary Bedroom

The game room is located in the middle of the secondary bedroom corridor, functioning as an alternate family room that allows the household's other occupants to gather independently from the primary entertaining areas.

The Calida's two front secondary bedrooms function as standard guest or family bedrooms in the base plan and as modeled. However, an optional upgrade could convert them into a GenSmart Suite®, a multigenerational living arrangement with a private living area, sleeping room, kitchenette, and separate entry off the front porch. The builder notes that homebuyers have loved this upgrade.

Creative Design Consultants styled each of the four secondary bedrooms with a distinct personality to demonstrate the range of occupants the plan can support.

The tour concludes with the Lustre. This model showcases the Farmhouse elevation style, which uses board-and-batten detailing, brick, metal accent roofs, high glass at garage doors, and a clean modern expression that still feels rooted in the natural landscape. Among the many standout features, the garages are a key differentiator, intentionally designed to reduce aesthetic dominance from the street while still giving homebuyers extra space and flexibility.

The Lustre is 5,137 square feet with 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a 4-bay garage. This floor plan illustrates the intentionality to maximize function while still maintaining privacy. Short hallways buffer private spaces from shared living areas without wasting valuable square footage on circulation. Modeled upgrades include the alternate island, primary retreat instead of a flex space, upgraded shower, as well as upgraded doors at the primary retreat, great room, and game room. This plan is 90 feet wide.

While four bedrooms are set along the right side of the home, one secondary bedroom is tucked around the corner from the foyer. With its own en-suite bath and proximity to one of the garages, this bedroom benefits from slightly more privacy and autonomy that would suit a guest or family member that wants more independence.

The dedicated office, seen here, can be upgraded with built-in base cabinets, supporting an organized workspace. For greater privacy, buyers can also option in French doors.

The open-concept living creates a grand central gathering area that is emphasized by a continuous run of glazing along the back of the home. According to the builder, homebuyers have shown strong interest in the Calida and Lustre plans, particularly because of their expansive kitchen, dining, and great room layouts. Each space branches off from this round entry table, feeling separate but together.

The dining area is lined with optional built-in cabinetry and windows that are flanked by sconces matching the light pendant. The model homes showcase an elevated interior design direction that reflects the larger scale of the homes.

The Lustre model features an oversized island upgrade with seating on three sides. This setup provides ample counterspace for both prep and gathering. Beyond what’s visible, the kitchen counters and cabinetry extend past the oven, around the corner to a walk-in pantry. Popular finishes at Emberly include professional appliance packages, quartz countertops, wood-look tile flooring, buckskin cabinetry, stacked cabinetry, and warm, textured color palettes.

These home sites, which average 110 x 137 feet are not only wide, but also deep, allowing for generous outdoor living that starts with this covered outdoor room.

Just like the interior, the outdoor spaces showcase elevated design. Landscaping lines the various gathering areas and complements the desert landscape while metal beams create an artistic waterfall moment along the pool.

The 20’-0” x 17’-4” primary suite runs along the rear of the plan with views of the covered outdoor living space and nearby mountains. The home not only prioritizes interior privacy, but also privacy between homes. Note the smaller windows along the bed wall that let in additional light without permitting neighbors to see into the bedroom.

Between the closets, optional built-in cabinetry, the garage, laundry room, and kitchen pantry, there is no shortage of storage in this plan. The primary bedroom’s closet occupies as much square footage as a secondary bedroom. Built-in storage systems maximize the space’s functionality.

The primary bath features split vanities on both sides of the freestanding tub as well as an upgraded frameless shower with a drying area.

The Lustre's primary suite retreat is shown as a fitness room with direct sliding glass door access to the covered outdoor room, continuing the themes of flexibility and indoor-outdoor connectivity.

The game room is a transitionary space between the main living areas and secondary bedrooms. But it also serves as a more casual gathering area for residents.

The Lustre has four secondary bedrooms, three of which are grouped around the game room.

The secondary bedroom here has a walk-in closet, shared access to a Jack-and-Jill bath, and enough space for a bed and desk setup.

Lustre Secondary Bedroom

Emberly has one more floor plan that was not modeled. The Aliento is 4,587 square feet with 5 bedrooms, 4.5 baths, and a 6-bay garage. Notable features include covered outdoor rooms on two sides of the home, the flex space and game room flanking the foyer, extensive storage between the garage, drop zone, laundry room, and walk-in pantry, and the split closet in the primary suite. This plan is 90 feet wide.
