Flagstaff-area suburb set in the ponderosa pines
Set within North America’s largest ponderosa pine forest, the suburb of Cherry Hill combines modern conveniences with outdoor recreation. “One of the things people love about this neighborhood is its proximity to Downtown Flagstaff,” says Jason Shafor, sales agent and manager of RE/MAX Fine Properties, who grew up in the area. “And you can easily walk or ride your bike to area shops and restaurants.” Nature trails and parks offer views of the San Francisco Peaks, which sit 25 miles north, and a nearby amphitheater hosts annual family-friendly events.
Cherry Hill is a quiet neighborhood with views of the San Fransisco Peaks.

Ranch-style and split-level homes with ponderosa pines
“Most of Cherry Hill's homes are set on quarter-acre lots, with a ton of ponderosa pine trees,” says Shafor. The neighborhood's residential streets are lined with sidewalks and homes from the 1970s and ‘80s, a mix of ranch-style houses with cross-gabled roofs, and split-level Craftsman-style homes with up to six bedrooms. Most of these homes have wide driveways leading to two-car garages, and some backyards are enclosed by fences; prices range from $700,000 to $800,000. Mountain-modern homes from the 1960s with brick exteriors and outdoor spas sell for upward of $1.1 million. There’s no HOA here, and homeowners enjoy their own private bike path.
Mid century style and front yard gardens add charm to the Cherry Hill neighborhood.

A dog-friendly park, hiking and musicals
Downtown Flagstaff’s roughly 3-acre Wheeler Park is a dog-friendly open greenspace dotted with benches. Many of the park's mature pine and oak trees are strung with lights during the winter holidays, and after a snowfall, local kids display their snowmen here. A metal stagecoach stands at the entrance of the 215-acre Buffalo Park, which is part wildflower meadow and part ponderosa pine forest, popular with hikers and mountain bikers for its views of the San Francisco Peaks. At the Theatrikos Theatre Company roughly a mile west of the neighborhood, local actors star in musicals, comedies and dramas; historical documentaries are screened here, as well, and the staff holds summer camps for aspiring actors.

Monsoon rains keep the temps cooler in the summertime in Cherry Hill.
Increased fire risk and monsoon rains
“Fires are always a risk here,” says Melinda T. Morfin, associate broker for Realty One Group – Mountain Desert, who’s lived in Flagstaff for 30 years. “For the last four or five years, we’ve seen more evacuations, and with climate change, we haven’t had enough moisture lately to help lower the chances. When we do get rain, it’s usually in the form of a monsoon, which leads to flooding because there’s nothing to catch the water after an area has burned down.” Flood insurance is required if homeowners here live in designated flood zones.
