See all Chandler 55+ communities →Springfield is the guard-gated Del Webb community in south Chandler — about 742 single-family homes built in the late 1990s around an 18-hole executive golf course. It’s the established, well-kept, guard-at-the-gate option, and its Riggs Road location puts you minutes from everything the East Valley offers.
Guard gated, and built to last
Springfield is guard gated — a guard on duty, residents through on a transponder, visitors stopped at the gate. Among Chandler’s 55+ communities, that puts it in the more secure tier alongside SunBird. Pair that with Del Webb’s build quality and a community that’s had 25-plus years to mature its landscaping and settle in, and you get a place that feels genuinely established rather than brand-new.
Golf inside the gates
Springfield is built around its own 18-hole executive golf course — a shorter, walkable layout that’s ideal for the way a lot of active adults actually like to play: a real round without a five-hour commitment. Golf-course homes are their own search, so if you want a fairway view out back, use the golf course homes link above.

Springfield is single-family Del Webb homes — one-level, active-adult floor plans built for easy living, many on or near the course. Because the community is from the late 1990s, the homes are established and often nicely updated; the key with any resale here is the mechanicals and how well it’s been maintained, which is exactly what we go through with you before you offer.
