Desert Ridge Real Estate
Located in North Phoenix just directly north of the Loop 101, Desert Ridge is the one of the largest master planned communities in the Phoenix Metro area. Its proximity to shopping, recreation and employment opportunities makes it a highly desirable community. Nearby, the Desert Ridge Marketplace is one of the top outdoor malls in the country with countless shops, dining and entertainment options.
Desert Ridge is a 5,700 acre development with a master plan of 15,000 homes! That’s about 55,000 residents living in Desert Ridge upon completion. Just incase this number scares you a bit, developers created residential ‘superblocks.’ These superblocks are individual neighborhoods with the community that are anchored by an elementary school, parks and walking paths…hence making the community seem smaller and with a stronger sense of identity.
Within the master plan is the striking J.W. Marriot Desert Ridge Resort and Spa, which includes 950 rooms, including 81 suites and the 28,000 square foot Revive Spa. A component of the Resort and Desert Ridge community is an Arnold Palmer signature championship course. The course is part of Wildfire Golf Club which features a clubhouse (with the exquisite Meritage Steakhouse, YUM), a short game complex and a driving range.
