CALVIS WYANT HOMES: DESIGN-BUILD EXCELLENCE
CALVIS WYANT HOMES: DESIGN-BUILD EXCELLENCE
Calvis Wyant Luxury Homes is one of Arizona’s most respected names in luxury home building. Founded in 1986 by carpenter and builder Tony Calvis and architectural designer Gary Wyant, the firm has spent nearly four decades designing and building award-winning custom estates throughout Scottsdale, Paradise Valley, and the Valley’s finest golf communities.
What sets Calvis Wyant apart is its true design-build model — architecture, interior design, and construction working as one integrated team under a single point of accountability. The result is homes celebrated for their volume, scale, natural light, and view-oriented floor plans. For buyers seeking a residence with genuine craftsmanship and pedigree, a Calvis Wyant home represents a rare opportunity.
Calvis Wyant Homes On The Market
Calvis Wyant residences trade throughout Arizona’s most prestigious enclaves, and each one is genuinely distinct.
Because these are custom-built luxury estates, Calvis Wyant homes generally trade in the multi-million-dollar range, with residences in premier communities such as Silverleaf, Desert Mountain, and Paradise Valley commanding well above that. Pricing varies dramatically with community, lot position, view corridor, square footage, and finish level. In addition to resales, the builder regularly offers new, ready-to-own luxury homes on carefully selected lots. Contact The Holm Group for the most current availability and pricing.

The Builder & Its History
In the early 1980s, Tony Calvis, a long-time carpenter and builder, saw an opportunity to rethink how luxury homes were delivered by bringing design and construction together under one service-minded team. In 1986, he partnered with architectural designer Gary Wyant, known for intuitive volume, scale, natural light, and view-oriented floor plans. Together they founded Calvis Wyant Luxury Homes, and in May 2026 the firm marks 40 years in business.
