Asante is one of the newer master-planned areas in northwest Surprise, where several national builders are active. This guide sticks to what the community site, the City of Surprise and Dysart Unified publish.

Quick facts

• What it is: Master-planned area marketed as “Artisan at Asante.” The community site lists Lennar, Pulte Homes and Taylor Morrison as builders.
• Planned size: The community site says 2,700 home sites upon completion. Amenities are described as based on current development plans and subject to change.
• City park: Asante Community Park, 16763 W Vereda Solana Dr (164th Ave & Pat Tillman Blvd), open 6 a.m.–10 p.m. per the City of Surprise.
• School district: Dysart Unified School District (Asante Preparatory Academy sits beside Asante Community Park).
• HOA: The builder site says community association fees are required. Amounts were not published on the pages we reviewed — verify per address.

Overview

Asante sits in the northwest part of Surprise, where Dysart Unified says “rapid growth in the northern part of the district around Asante” prompted school boundary changes in 2024. The community site describes Artisan at Asante as a place of newly built homes on wide streetscapes, with a clubhouse (listed as “now open”), pools, parks and trails described in its development plans.

Because several builders sell in Asante at once, two homes with the same street name can sit in different phases with different lot sizes, floor plans and HOA terms. Treat builder pages as marketing, and compare the actual HOA documents for the phase you are considering.

Location and character

Dysart places Asante Preparatory Academy “near Pat Tillman Blvd adjacent to Asante Community Park near 163rd Avenue and Grand Avenue with close access to the 303.” The City of Surprise lists the park at 164th Ave & Pat Tillman Blvd. The community site calls Asante a “peaceful lifestyle” setting with conveniences such as a “pedestrian-friendly grocery store, coffee shop and local eateries,” and says it sits less than 10 miles from the heart of Surprise (developer’s wording, not a measured drive time).

Parks and amenities nearby

• Asante Community Park (City of Surprise): per the city’s park sheet — 2 soccer fields, 2 softball/baseball fields, 4 basketball courts (lighted), 8 exercise stations, 2 playground units, restrooms, drinking fountains, BBQs, ramadas available to reserve, and a veterans memorial. Hours 6 a.m.–10 p.m.
• Asante Library: a Surprise Public Library branch that the community site highlights as an on-site amenity. Check the library’s own page for hours.
• LIVE at Asante: free outdoor concert series run by the City of Surprise on the library campus. Dates change — see our Events page for the listings we have checked against city sources.

Schools served

Asante Preparatory Academy is a Dysart Unified school for preschool through 5th grade (opened 2019). Under boundary changes that took effect in 2024–25, 6th–8th graders within the Asante boundary attend Cimarron Springs Middle School. The community site also names Willow Canyon High School among the schools serving the area; that is the builder’s statement, so confirm the high school by address. Use Dysart SchoolFinder (enter the house number and street, then choose K-8 or high school boundaries). Boundaries and open-enrollment capacity can change by school year.

Commute and getting around

The published location notes point to Grand Avenue and Loop 303 access. We do not publish drive-time estimates. Check your real route at the hours you would drive, and use AZ511 for current road conditions.

HOA and amenity notes

The builder site states that community association fees are required. It does not state an amount on the pages we reviewed. Ask for the HOA budget, CC&Rs and any assessment history for the specific phase before making an offer.

Verify before you buy: HOA dues and special assessments, rental rules, the school boundary for the exact address, and current inventory. Ask for the resale disclosure and governing documents.
