Working the Scottsdale Real Estate market, my loyal readers are well aware of the special affinity I hold for the planned community of McCormick Ranch.
Far from the only area I work, it receives the extra attention that is reserved for the community that I will always consider home. In the immediate vicinity are the various phases that compose the gated golf community of Gainey Ranch, the Town of Paradise Valley and Scottsdale Ranch, among others. Nestled amidst these name brand communities is one of Scottsdale's hidden gems. In fact, I must make a confession of sorts. Much as I love McCormick Ranch, I have long harbored a secret yearning for the neighborhood known as Paradise Valley Farms. Tucked away just South of Gainey Village and East of Scottsdale Road, few out of towners are aware that some of the most spectacular custom homes in all of Scottsdale lie hidden behind the massive eucalyptus trees that guard the acre parcels from rubber-necking passersby. With new construction that reaches in excess of 7000 square feet intertwined with the modest, original ranch style homes (held over from the late 60s and 70s), Paradise Valley Farms maintains equestrian privileges and bridle trails. Well known amongst horse enthusiasts, this friendly, non-gated neighborhood of only 2 square blocks is not readily associated with the luxury home market by many buyers (who shop the likes of DC Ranch, Desert Mountain, Silverleaf, the Town of Paradise Valley, Arcadia, the Central Corridor, the Biltmore, Ancala, etc).
Of all the high end developments in the greater Scottsdale area, Paradise Valley Farms is where yours truly will live when the Powerball inevitably smiles for me.
