Quite often clients will tell me of their desire for urban living but staying in the Phoenix metro area. Then two demographics it seems to suit most are young unmarried professionals or the downsizing brigade. The desire is for more stuff within walking distance, more of a buzz and the ease of lock and leave type properties for people who travel a lot.
When it comes to high rise urban living it’s hard for Phoenix to compete with cities such as New York, Chicago and San Francisco but their are a few areas that offer something close.
The areas I have visited with clients include, Biltmore Area, Scottsdale Waterfront, Kierland and Tempe Lakefront. I have yet to show property in downtown Phoenix but I that is another area that is up and coming.
Of these areas each have their benefits but I would say Biltmore has the most established urban feel and Scottsdale Waterfront area has the most happening shopping and dining.
There are certainly some beautiful properties for sale check out some of the luxury condo’s and penthouses that are available. If you are thinking of moving to an urban penthouse or loft please give me a call.
