Golf Course Living
Fairway homes that compare directly to Scottsdale gated golf — at 30–40% less per foot.
The 84/48 has two of the best-kept golf course luxury secrets in the metro.
Ocotillo Golf Club in 85248 — a 27-hole Ted Robinson design woven through five interlocking lakes — has fairway and lakefront-fairway homes that get compared (correctly) to Scottsdale's gated golf communities at 30–40% less per foot.
The Lakes golf course in nearby Tempe and the country club homes around Corona del Sol round out the mix. Then there's the Estates at Ocotillo — fairway-adjacent, gated, ultra-luxury — which routinely traded in the high sevens and low eights well before that became normal in the East Valley.
What you don't have to buy here that you would in Scottsdale: a country club initiation in the high five figures. Most homes give you the lifestyle without forcing the membership.
WHO THIS FITS
Buyers who want the view and the morning walk along the cart path more than they want the membership card. Buyers comparing Scottsdale fairway homes who want to keep an extra million in their pocket.

Pro Tip
Hole orientation matters. North-facing rear yards keep the patio livable from October through May. South-facing fairway lots get gorgeous in winter and brutal in July.

Walk the course before you write the offer.
Two fairway lots can be a quarter-mile apart and a half-million dollars apart. Sun, slope, and which hole you're looking at change everything. Let's walk it before you commit.
