About Sanctuary Custom Construction
Sanctuary Custom Construction is a boutique custom home builder in Tucson, founded by Jordan Junior, a University of Arizona business graduate with more than 20 years of experience building custom homes here. It is a member of the Southern Arizona Home Builders Association (SAHBA).
Its pitch is one team for the whole project. Rather than handing clients between architects, designers and contractors, it keeps every phase under one roof: Jordan sources the architect and designers for each home and attends every meeting, Sanctuary's own designers work with the client, and it designs and builds pools in-house. Its process runs in five steps — consultation, pre-construction, design, construction and warranty — and it can help find and evaluate a lot.
Its portfolio includes Desert Canyon Hacienda, a 3,420-square-foot desert-contemporary home on two acres beneath the Tortolita Mountains, and Sonoran Estate, a 5,798-square-foot Tuscan-inspired home on three acres. Sanctuary gives a comprehensive estimate up front — including landscaping, outdoor living, pools and driveways — and backs its homes with a two-year warranty.

Frequently Asked
Sanctuary Custom Construction FAQs
What does "under one roof" mean at Sanctuary?+
Sanctuary says most builders hand clients off between architects, designers and contractors, and it keeps every phase in one team instead. Its founder, Jordan Junior, sources the architect and designers for each project and attends every meeting, from the first design conversation to the final walk-through, so you have one point of contact.
Where does Sanctuary Custom Construction build?+
Its roots are in Tucson, and it lists Marana, Oro Valley, the Catalina Foothills, the Tanque Verde Valley, Casas Adobes, Sahuarita and Green Valley among the areas it serves. For a site elsewhere in Southern Arizona, it asks you to get in touch to check whether it falls within its service area.
What does a Sanctuary custom home cost?+
Sanctuary does not publish a price range: cost depends on design complexity, site conditions, square footage and finish level. For context, its FAQ cites HomeGuide's estimate that luxury custom builds in Arizona typically run $300 to $550 or more per square foot, and Sanctuary gives a comprehensive estimate up front that includes landscaping, outdoor living, pools and driveways.
How long does a Sanctuary custom home take?+
About 18 months from excavation to move-in on a straightforward site, by Sanctuary's own estimate. Tucson's terrain can add time — bedrock in particular slows excavation — and it walks each client through a site-specific timeline during pre-construction.
Does Sanctuary have its own designers?+
Yes. Its team includes designers who work with you directly, and Jordan brings in the architects and designers each project needs. You can be as involved in the design as you like, from detailed inspiration boards to a lifestyle brief Sanctuary translates into a design.
