Diverse housing stock in Dove Mountain caters to different homebuyers
Dove Mountain encompasses over a dozen subdivisions and neighborhoods. Housing options range from apartment complexes and active adult communities to traditional subdivision homes and custom-built luxury estates. Development in the area largely took place in the 2000s, with architectural styles leaning toward New Traditional and ranch-style designs. Spanish accents are also common, with terra-cotta tile roofs and arched windows and doorways.
The more exclusive communities, such as Canyon Pass and the Residences at the Ritz-Carlton, offer custom homesites or personalized home designs with mountain or golf course views. “Canyon Pass has acre-sized lots,” Browning says. “And Ritz-Carlton has concierge services, which cover just about anything you can think of, from grocery needs to dry cleaning.” Smaller single-family homes typically sell from $300,000 to $850,000, while larger estates usually go for $1 million to $3 million. Townhouses in the active adult community, Highlands at Dove Mountain, generally sell from $300,000 to $450,000. Most neighborhoods are part of an HOA, and homeowners will likely need to pay dues.
