Diversified Partners Advances Ironwood and Ranch Mixed-Use Development in Fast-Growing San Tan Valley

Developing a 23.88-acre mixed-use project featuring a 50,000-square-foot medical building alongside retail, restaurant, build-to-suit, and sales opportunities in the rapidly expanding Ironwood Road corridor.

Diversified Partners, a leading Scottsdale-based commercial real estate brokerage and development firm, is advancing a new approximately 23.88-acre mixed-use development at the southeast corner of Ironwood Road and Ranch Road in San Tan Valley, creating opportunities for retailers, restaurants, medical providers and service businesses to establish a presence in one of Arizona's fastest-growing communities.

The thoughtfully planned development is designed to meet the growing demand for everyday services driven by the Southeast Valley's rapid residential and commercial expansion. The project includes approximately 25,000 square feet of proposed retail space and an approximately 50,000-square-foot medical building, which is under contract with OrthoArizona, demonstrating strong demand for healthcare services in the rapidly growing area. Additional opportunities remain available for retail, restaurant, ground lease and build-to-suit users. Planned features include multiple shop buildings, a hard corner pad with drive-thru potential, two additional pad sites and a medical building.

"Ironwood and Ranch represents exactly the type of strategic growth opportunity we look for," said Walt Brown Jr., founder and CEO of Diversified Partners. "The surrounding community continues to experience tremendous residential growth, and we're creating a destination that meets the increasing demand for high-quality retail, dining and healthcare services while creating an exceptional long-term opportunity for businesses looking to grow alongside the surrounding community."

Located along Ironwood Road, which sees nearly 34,000 vehicles per day, the development is positioned to serve a growing trade area of more than 115,000 residents within a five-mile radius, where the average household income exceeds $150,000. The site is surrounded by thousands of existing and planned homes, new schools and continued commercial development, reinforcing its position within one of Arizona's most active growth corridors and the nation's second-fastest-growing county.

Designed to accommodate a wide variety of users, the project offers opportunities for retailers, restaurants and service-oriented businesses. Available spaces include inline retail, drive-thru opportunities, ground lease parcels, build-to-suit options and purchase opportunities, providing flexibility for businesses seeking to grow alongside the surrounding community.

The development is also surrounded by an established and expanding retail corridor anchored by national brands including LA Fitness, Chick-fil-A, Safeway, Dutch Bros, Starbucks and numerous additional retailers within a two-mile radius, creating a strong commercial environment that continues to attract residents and businesses alike.

Ironwood and Ranch further expands Diversified Partners' growing portfolio throughout the Southeast Valley, reinforcing the firm's continued investment in one of Arizona's fastest-growing regions while creating thoughtfully planned destinations that serve businesses and the surrounding community.
