Description of our neighbourhood and surrounding area
Our home is surrounded by a (private) golf course. The community consists of large lots and luxury homes situated in the open desert.. The village is on a mile circle which is perfect for a morning stroll. A very safe neighborhood in a gated community with almost no traffic. Our home is a 45 minute drive from Phoenix Sky Harbor airport with good connections to most major US airports and beyond..
The golf course that surrounds the home is for members only. But several excellent public courses are within a 20-minute drive.
Eclectic and artsy Carefree, “old western” Cave Creek (think rodeo), Scottsdale and Phoenix offer many art galleries, fine dining and cultural events from 5 to 45 minutes drive.
The greater Phoenix area surrounded by mountains includes picturesque Camelback Mountain.
