Luxurious life with a view in Pinnacle Peak
Looking out from the high desert north of Phoenix, residents of Pinnacle Peak have access to a laid-back, luxurious lifestyle and the beautiful natural surroundings of Arizona's Sonoran Desert and rocky ridgelines. "Homes here tend to be high-end and custom-built, and most residents belong to private communities, so there's everything from highly rated golf courses and resorts to world-class restaurants," says Stan Abraham, a local Realtor who has sold homes throughout the greater Phoenix area since 2004. With nearby parks and plenty of community space to get outside, from tennis and pickleball courts to swimming pools, residents here can easily recreate in Arizona's outdoors. "The blooming saguaro cactus and views up here are just out of this world. Plus, the temperatures here are cooler year-round than down in the Valley," Abraham says. Close to top-rated schools, outdoor activities and convenient shopping in Scottsdale, Pinnacle Peak combines a suburban location with a picturesque natural environment.
Pinnacle Peak looms over 150 acres of rugged desert terrain, and offers great views.

Million-dollar homes in Maricopa County
Set between private golf courses and a rugged desert environment, Pinnacle Peak is made up of several gated communities. Ranging from Santa Fe and Spanish Revival designs to strikingly modern styles, every home in the neighborhood is unique and custom-built. "Most of the homes were constructed in the 1970s and 80s, and all of them are single-level custom builds. The homes having so much character and all the lush vegetation here has made the neighborhood very charming," says Julie Pelle, who is a Realtor and area specialist for Compass, as well as a resident of the neighborhood for over 10 years. The neighborhood's picturesque architecture includes classic Arizona details like earth tones, dramatic angles and stucco exteriors. Many properties also come on generous parcels of land, with between 2,800 and 5,000 square feet of space inside. Prices start around $1.25 million and run up to $5 million.

Getting around the greater Phoenix area
About 20 miles north of Downtown Scottsdale, residents of Pinnacle Peak can get to the city by driving about 30 minutes south along Arizona State Route 101. To get to Phoenix, residents can take a 30-mile, or about 45-minute, drive along the Piestewa Freeway to get into the heart of the city. For those who own or would like to charter private planes, Scottsdale Airport is just ten miles south of the neighborhood, while, for public flights, Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is about 30 miles down the road.

Community events in Pinnacle Peaks
While Pinnacle Peak residents have plenty of options for entertainment in surrounding areas, they also enjoy having plenty to do in the neighborhood. "It's nice for residents to have amenities like tennis courts, pools and golf courses, but community clubhouses also have spa experiences and events like wine-tasting and cooking classes," says Abraham.
Know before you go
While Pinnacle Peak is in Arizona and residents can expect sun all year, temperatures are also cooler than other areas lower in the valley due to the neighborhood's elevation. Because of this, residents can stay cool year-round, but should also expect dustings of snow in the winter.
