Quiet, suburban streets near city amenities

Set 30 miles southeast of Phoenix, Lyon's Gate is a master-planned community in Gilbert, Arizona, known for its quiet streets, new construction and top-rated schools; homeowners here are invited to neighborhood events like the annual Fall Festival and share community amenities like sports courts, pools and a clubhouse available to rent. In the early 20th century, the area was mostly farmland, and Gilbert was known as “The Hay Capital of the World,” but today, the area has bloomed into a tight-knit community full of local businesses, green spaces and annual events, like Gilbert Days. However, residents of Lyon's Gate may still feel Gilbert’s farm town roots as the streets are less crowded than in other neighborhoods, like Downtown Gilbert. “I don’t see a lot of people on the streets,” says Amy Smale, a Realtor with DeLex Realtor who has worked in real estate for over five years. “It’s a very quiet neighborhood.” Residential streets in Lyon's Gate are well-kept and typically free of noise pollution, but locals here are always within a few miles of modern amenities, like shopping and dining at Epicenter at Agritopia, about a mile north, or Downtown Gilbert, 4 miles south. Lyon's Gate receives a low CAP Index Crime Score of 3, compared to the national average of 4, and nearby access to Highway 202 and Valley Metro buses makes it easy to get around the Phoenix Metropolitan Area. “To me, it’s a great place to live. It’s right by Williams Field High School, and some nice, new, fun, hip restaurants are coming in,” says Smale.

Single-family homes in Lyon's Gate

The average home price in Lyon's Gate is about $560,000, less than neighboring Gateway Ranch and Morrison Ranch, where the averages are $570,000 and $650,000, respectively. “You can find houses that are 1,100 square feet up to 4,500,” Smale says. Homes here typically range between $500,000 and $800,000; most were built in the last 20 years. A typical single-family home with four bedrooms starts around $550,000, while a three-bed version can start as low as $450,000. Most single-family homes here are two stories and draw from either Spanish Revival or Craftsman-style architecture and include access to shared amenities like community pools, basketball courts and play areas. Homes that range closer to $800,000 are typically between 3,000 and 4,000 square feet and may include private pools and attached garages.

Shopping and dining near Lyon's Gate

Residents here can grab groceries from Fry’s off East Williams Field Road, but Lyon's Gate is mostly residential, meaning most shopping centers are located within a mile or two outside the neighborhood. Set by tree-lined sidewalks and dotted with shrubbery, Epicenter at Agritopia is a mixed-use shopping village featuring restaurants, shops and apartments less than a mile north of Lyon's Gate, where locals can buy fresh produce from The Farm Store, grab a cocktail from Undertow or relax with a cup of joe at The Coffee Shop. There are also several local restaurants, like Joe’s Farm Grill, a family-owned restaurant that offers classic American cuisine made with fresh ingredients from Agritopia Farm. “There are a lot of restaurants being built there at Higley and Ray. I bet we have 50-plus restaurants around here,” says Smale. Locals can also head to SanTan Village for more shopping and dining options. “It’s a huge outdoor shopping center about two miles from the neighborhood.”
