A New Perspective on Desert Living

Discover a new way to live in North Phoenix at NOVEL Norterra, a thoughtfully designed apartment community bringing together modern living, outdoor connection, and everyday convenience in one of the Valley’s most desirable and growing neighborhoods.

Situated on 8.5 acres in the vibrant Norterra neighborhood, this four-story community will feature 248 thoughtfully designed apartment residences, complemented by inviting social spaces and resort-inspired amenities that celebrate the Arizona lifestyle.

Life at NOVEL Norterra is designed to extend beyond your front door. Spend sunny afternoons lounging by the resort-style pool and spa, gather with friends around outdoor fire features, enjoy a match on the shaded pickleball court, or explore beautifully landscaped outdoor spaces. With a welcoming clubhouse, outdoor dining and grilling areas, and a dedicated dog park, every detail is designed to make connecting, unwinding, and feeling at home effortless.

An Exceptional Location, Connected to Everything.

Ideally located just east of I-17, NOVEL Norterra places residents within walking distance of The Shops at Norterra, with convenient access to shopping, dining, entertainment, and everyday essentials. Major employment centers, including TSMC Arizona and USAA, are nearby, while easy interstate access makes exploring the greater Phoenix area and destinations like Lake Pleasant, Sedona, and Flagstaff a natural part of life.

Developed by Crescent Communities, with construction led by Crescent Communities Construction, NOVEL Norterra is being brought to life alongside investment and financing partners NEC Capital Solutions Limited, Sumitomo Mitsui Trust Panasonic Finance Co., Ltd., additional Japanese investors, and UMB Financial Corporation.

A fresh chapter of North Phoenix living is coming soon.

Anticipated first move-ins Spring 2028.
