The internationally acclaimed Desert Highlands Golf Club features some of the most beautiful homes in Scottsdale Arizona. Spread through its 850 acres, the exclusive Scottsdale AZ real estate includes 575 home sites beginning in the $300,000 to $600,000 range, membership included. Since it was established in 1983, over 500 custom Scottsdale homes have been constructed. Prices range from $1-8 million.
This extraordinary real estate in Scottsdale is convenient to amenities and art centers at Old Town Scottsdale and Carefree. It is near medical services such as the renowned Mayo clinic, shopping, restaurants, and schools. With only a 30-minute drive from Downtown Phoenix real estate, residents of these wonderful Desert Highlands homes also enjoy plenty of cultural and entertainment options in the big city and proximity to Sky Harbor Airport.
Desert Highlands offers exceptional Sonoran Desert living for residents. A Jack Nicklaus Signature-design golf course extends throughout the private gated community. The community also features an award winning clubhouse, golfing in the footsteps of the legends, an extraordinary tennis program, and fitness center and spa.
Blended into imposing granite outcroppings, the 30,000-square-foot clubhouse is like a jewel set into the mountains. Designed by William Zmistowski, the refreshingly elegant masterpiece features magnificent views from the formal dining room, informal dining, bar, private dining areas, and from terraces that cascade down the hill to the pool. These gathering spots look out over breathtaking Arizona sunsets.
The award-winning clubhouse does not steal the glow from the acclaimed golf course, though. Golf Digest ranked Desert Highlands as one of the top desert golf courses in the country. The first two Skins Games (1983 and 1984) took place here with Jack Nicklaus, Arnold Palmer, Tom Watson, and Gary Player. From the tips, Nicklaus designed 7,072 yards of marvelous challenges. As the desert is abutting the fairways and greens, Pinnacle Peak looms overhead with the city lights below in the distance.
Desert Highlands Racquet Club, a premier facility with its own clubhouse, lounge, and fully stocked tennis shop, features 14 tennis courts with grass, clay, or LayKold surfaces. The courts also blend into the desert setting. The club offers frequent member socials, tournaments, and interclub play. Approximately 150 club-ranked tennis players enjoy the state-of-the-art tennis facilities. Just as fabulous, the superb spa and fitness facilities cater to the health, well being, athletic conditioning, and relaxation of Members.
Desert Highlands sets a higher standard in community, amenities, and individualized, environmentally harmonious architecture. In fact, the Covenants, Conditions and Restrictions became the model for other gated communities in the American Southwest. Honored as Most Beautiful Clubhouse in America and Best Club with Locked Gates among other accolades, Desert Highlands delivers the grace of a lifetime of dreams.
