Golf Course Paradise

The 640-acre master planned community of Estancia offers custom home lots from $600,000 to over $1,000,000, and spec and custom homes from $1.7 million to over $2.5 million. The community is 640 gated and guarded acres with 223 home sites and 39 villas—no “look-alikes”—located on the northern slope of Pinnacle Peak, some of the most desirable land in the Phoenix area. If your dream home has a view of the desert, this is where you want to live. The purple-blue mountains, boulder formations, and ruggedly graceful saguaro and other Sonoran vegetation are the perfect foreground to dramatic sunsets and a carpet of city lights. Yet shopping, dining, and cultural events are never more than a few minutes away. Builders must follow the Estancia Design Guidelines, architectural standards that ensure the effective incorporation rather than destruction of legacy vegetation, important washes, and wonderful views.

The private equity golf membership is invitation-only and capped at 325. Prestigious golf architect Tom Fazio won the1996 Golf Digest Best New Private Course award for Estancia’s 18-hole course. The championship, par-72 course plays at 7,100 yards and brilliantly features the fantastic natural landscape, an important part of the designer’s philosophy. In his 35 years as a golf course designer, Tom Fazio has received an abundance of awards. In fact, no living golf architect has appeared more times on Golf Digest’s list of America’s 100 Greatest Golf Courses or Golfweek’s collection of America’s Best.

Estancia residents enjoy the 30,000-square-foot European-style clubhouse with a huge array of amenities, including an extensive fitness center with locker rooms, tennis courts, and intimate, private dining areas.
