This magnificent 330-acre development surrounded by rugged mountains and federally protected nature areas represents one of the last opportunities to acquire large custom homesites in the highly coveted luxury real estate market of North Scottsdale, Arizona.
The gated community of Sereno Canyon will encompass a total of 122 estate-size lots nestled among the foothills on the secluded northern slope of the McDowell Mountains, with dramatic views of nearby mountain ranges, picturesque boulder outcroppings and mile after mile of unspoiled Sonoran Desert scenery.
Residents will enjoy access to a full complement of resort-style amenities at Sereno Canyon’s upscale clubhouse, and to a network of private hiking trails winding through natural open spaces. Each individual parcel is designed to harmonize with the appealing topography of the desert terrain, with building envelopes carefully positioned to preserve privacy, and generous architectural guidelines in place to promote a visually harmonious “Sereno Canyon style.”
Hidden away yet not hard to reach, Sereno Canyon is less than an hour from downtown Phoenix, and a short, scenic drive from the abundant recreational and commercial attractions of North Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and the Camelback Corridor.
