Known to residents and business owners simply as The Ranch, McDowell Mountain Ranch is a 3,200-acre master-planned community set within the beautiful Sonoran Preserve. Spreading south and west away from McDowell Mountain, this award-winning community is located in northeast Scottsdale. Opened in 1995, The Ranch consists of 26 unique neighborhoods constructed by 14 different homebuilders, each with their own style and flair. The community itself includes miles of paved walkways and hiking trails, its own narrow-cast cable TV station, and a state-of-the-art Community Center.
The Ranch is less than 10 miles away from Salt River Fields at Talking Stick, the home of Arizona Diamondbacks and Colorado Rockies Spring Training, and just under 15 miles from Scottsdale Stadium, the Spring Training home of the San Francisco Giants. And with easy access to the 101 freeway, residents can be anywhere in the valley in minutes, whether that’s a Cardinals game in Glendale or a night at the Phoenix Symphony in downtown Phoenix.
Education for children of families living in McDowell Mountain Ranch is furnished by some of Arizona’s finest public and private schools, including Chaparral and Desert Mountain High Schools, and Notre Dame Prep High School.
As with the rest of Scottsdale, property in the Ranch is a solid investment in your family’s comfort and future, and now is a great time to start looking here for your next property!
