Quick answer

A Province villa is a Gemini twin home: two one-story homes attached along one wall, each about 1,200 to 1,800 square feet with two bedrooms and a two-car garage, built between 2004 and 2018 by Engle Homes and then Meritage Homes. The villa assessment covers exterior maintenance, roof repair and replacement, front-yard maintenance, and a blanket insurance policy, which is why it is higher than the single-family assessment.

What a villa is

Province listings code villas as Gemini or twin homes: two attached homes with one common wall, each with its own lot, garage, patio, and yard, held in fee simple. They are not condominiums. They are all one story. Lots run from about 4,400 to just under 10,000 square feet, median about 4,800. Ninety-plus percent are two-bedroom plans; a few are three.

Villa plans

Engle built the original villas from 2004 to 2007: Daisy (about 1,360 to 1,466 square feet), Carnation (about 1,543 to 1,616), and Daffodil (about 1,722 to 1,787), plus a small Marigold. Meritage built the later villas from 2011 to 2018: Marbella (about 1,325 to 1,500), Seville (about 1,607), and Valencia (about 1,739 to 1,777). No villas have been built since 2018, so every villa on the market is a resale. Full detail is on floor plans by square footage.

What the villa assessment covers

Villa owners pay a higher assessment than single-family owners because it includes items the single-family assessment does not: exterior maintenance of the unit, roof repair and replacement, front-yard maintenance, and a blanket insurance policy on the structures, in addition to the community amenities and the cable component. The association sets the amounts and publishes them to owners; this site does not print them. Details and contacts are on the Province association.

Where the villas are

Villas are grouped in their own parcels rather than scattered: the Engle villas in the original core around Lemon Drop, Candyland, Ellington, and Miller, and the Meritage villas in the 2014 to 2018 parcel around Caliente, Summer Wind, and Monsoon. Some villa lots back to the lakes; those carry the waterfront premium like any other lot. See homes on the water.

Who buys villas and why

A villa suits an owner who wants the exterior handled, a smaller footprint, and a lower purchase price than a comparable single-family home, and who accepts one shared wall and a smaller yard. A single-family home suits an owner who wants the private lot, more square footage, and the option of a casita or three-car garage, and who will handle or hire exterior upkeep. That comparison is on which home type fits. Sellers of villas should note the exterior coverage as a selling point and order the association documents early; see the seller path.

Frequently asked questions

Are Province villas condos?

No. They are fee-simple attached twin homes, each on its own lot with its own garage and yard. The association maintains exteriors and roofs under the villa assessment, but ownership is not condominium.

How big are Province villas?

About 1,200 to 1,800 square feet, one story, two bedrooms on nearly all of them, with a two-car garage. Lots are roughly 4,400 to 10,000 square feet.

Why do villas pay a higher HOA assessment?

Because the villa assessment covers exterior maintenance, roof repair and replacement, front-yard maintenance, and a blanket insurance policy on the structures, on top of the community amenities. Amounts come from the association office at 520-568-5316.

Are villas still being built in Province?

No. The last villas were built in 2018. Every villa purchase is a resale.

Do any villas sit on the lakes?

Yes. A minority of villa lots are waterfront, in both the Engle and Meritage villa parcels, and they carry the same lake premium as single-family waterfront lots.
