Experience Serenity: A Closer Look at Sanctuaire Privé, Paradise Valley's Hidden Gem
When you envision where the wealthiest people in the world live, what places come to mind? Destinations like Dubai, New York, London, Tokyo, and the Bay Area likely top the list. However, Arizona has emerged as a coveted destination over the past few years. What draws people to this sun-kissed state? It's the allure of lower taxes, particularly property taxes, coupled with the moderate winters that make spring and autumn delightful in the Valley.
The Top Cities for Luxury Living in Arizona
When thinking about Arizona, Phoenix is the first city that comes to everyone’s mind, followed closely by Scottsdale and its resort-like lifestyle of golf courses, nightlife, and palm trees. Yet, amidst the bustling metropolis of Phoenix and the opulence of Scottsdale lies a hidden gem nestled among the mountains and hillsides—a town that captures the attention of all who venture there.
Luxury Redefined: The Heart of Paradise Valley, Arizona
Welcome to Paradise Valley, where sprawling estates and a sense of serenity await. The luxury you experience in Paradise Valley today is the legacy of industrious farmers that blossomed into opulent estates and architecturally stunning homes.
Paradise Valley’s Unique History
In the 1950s, the farmers who lived on one to five-acre parcels in Paradise Valley saw the growth of both Phoenix and Scottsdale quickly encroaching on the area they loved. The neighbors quickly banded together to preserve this “country-like quiet, residential area”. Today, almost all the Paradise Valley homes sit on at least an acre, making them a private oasis near, but not in, the vibrant towns at their border.
Many of those farmer’s homes have since been torn down, and today estates cover most of the town. Many feature soaring ceilings, pools and spas, multiple garages, as well as entertaining spaces like those you see on TV. Renowned architects like Ned Sawyer and Al Beadle have intricate and architecturally stunning homes scattered throughout Paradise Valley, alongside newer builders who create ultra-contemporary mansions to meet the growing demand for these homes. The large lots can be simple and easy to maintain–like the desert surrounding the area–or like a lush oasis bringing reprieve to the dry climate in Arizona.
Imagining living in Paradise Valley can seem like a dream for some, but many are proud to call it home.
