During the 1970s and 1980s, McCormick Ranch transformed from dusty ranch land to one of Scottsdale’s first and most sought-after master-planned communities. “People really want to live here,” says Associate Broker Cathy Ellington of McCormick Ranch with more than twenty years of experience. “It’s a great, established location with quality properties.” With multiple communities and subdivisions, locals enjoy the greenest streets of the entire valley, with lush, mature trees and miles of interconnected parks and green spaces. Even with palm trees and mountain backdrops, folks sometimes forget they're in the desert. The McCormick Ranch Golf Club is a big draw, offering four different membership options. Enthusiasts will also love Topgolf, a state-of-the-art entertainment complex with three stories of climate-controlled hitting bays on the other side of the 101 Freeway. Access to nearby amenities and spacious floor plans make for lofty home prices, but buyers get what they pay for in this luxury area.
