The character.
The homes in Tally Ho Farms date back to 1969 and kept filling in through 2025, on 1.44 acre lots, and run around 7,427 square feet through the middle of the range. This is horse property, and that is not a footnote. It is the reason people buy here and the reason they do not leave. About three in four homes have a basement. Most of this valley does not, so the square footage here goes further than the lot would suggest.
Why it works.
Why Locals Love It
You can keep horses, park the trailer, and not file paperwork to do either. Nobody is zoning new neighborhoods like this inside the city, which is exactly why these hold.
Good to Know
There is no HOA. No design review, and also no shared reserve. That cuts both ways and you should know which side you are on. Homes run from about 1,716 to 8,500 square feet, so two listings on the same street can be completely different houses. Lots swing from 1.34 to 2.68 acres. Around here the lot is usually the bigger variable than the house. Schools are Kyrene de la Maripos, Kyrene Middle and Corona del Sol.
Pro Tip
Horse privileges are recorded, not assumed, and the setup varies house to house. Check the zoning, the irrigation, and what the neighbors actually run before you fall for a barn.
THE HONEST TRADEOFF
Supply is the trade here. Not many homes come up, so you wait for the right one instead of picking from ten. That patience is usually rewarded.
Who this fits.
“I’m buying in the adjacent equestrian corridor myself. The lifestyle here is legitimately special — horses in Tempe, no HOA, 20 minutes to the airport. Scottsdale buyers don’t know what they’re missing.”
