The Preserve Area | 85028 Homes On The North Foothills of the Phoenix Mountain

October 20, 2008

Visually pleasing, quiet, secluded, and in the midst of the Phoenix Central Valley: the Preserve area in the Phoenix Mountains.

Driving up I-51 just a pass through the middle of the Phoenix Mountains to the North West is a small cove surrounded by the preserve. Few people go there except for the residents: few of the individual communities are gated so it's not the reason: it's simply secluded and that seclusion is part of what makes this such a wonderful area but, that's not all.

The preserve area is collection of small communities that hug the mountain side. All homes here are custom and mixed in style from the eclectic modern to soft Tuscan: ranch and Santa Barbara can also be seen along with some contemporary home. So for such a small area it's distinctly diverse in architecture. There are very few Tuscan homes which seem to have flooded the market in the last decade to obscene levels.

Phoenix Mountains homes This is a luxury community with homes reaching toward a million dollars and many surpassing it but it's not pompous or overly showy and the homes are human sized: no McMansions here.

What most homes have are beautiful city and mountains views. To the South one can't miss Piestewa Peak (formerly Squaw Peak), to the East the view stretches to the McDowell Mountains and even Pinnacle Peak glows beautifully in the setting sun. Pinnacle Peak may be beautiful if you live there and work in Phoenix you have a long drive: this is definitely not a problem with the Preserve area. Just jump on the I-51 and the valley is in the grasp of you hands.

Of course, for those of you who enjoy more then looking at the beautiful scenes the Phoenix Mountain Preserve offers dozens of miles of hiking and biking trails. It's a neighborhood that truly offers balance.
