Campus Vista is a historic district near Phoenix College and downtown
First developed in 1939, Campus Vista is one of Phoenix’s 36 residential historic districts. During its early development, advertisements for the neighborhood stated that its ranch homes and prime location were for “discriminating buyers,” and these decades-old properties continue to drive interest. “Property values are soaring because people want something cool, something interesting,” says Amy Kelly, a member of The Jason Mitchell Group who has lived in Arizona for over 45 years. “You don’t put in the work into preserving a historic home unless you want a historic home.” Located beside the Phoenix College campus, Campus Vista’s central location in the heart of Phoenix means residents are minutes away from downtown, shopping and nightlife districts like Melrose and other historic neighborhoods, including Encanto and its expansive namesake park.
Red brick ranch style homes are common in Campus Vista.

Historic homes with renovations and modern condos near campus
Many of Campus Vista’s signature ranch-style homes were built between the mid-1940s and the 1960s. While the interiors of these properties are often completely updated, homeowners must follow guidelines from the Phoenix Historic Preservation Office when making changes to their homes' exteriors, porches, roofs and windows. “Some people want to come in and do some remodeling and modernizing without knowing anything about it, but the historic preservation office finds out quickly, and they’re shut down in a New York second,” says Laura Boyajian, a Realtor with HomeSmart Elite Group who has lived in Phoenix for over 40 years and specializes in historic neighborhoods. Renovated, historic ranch homes are listed for $300,000 to $700,000. Modern condo units are also available on the south side of Campus Vista, close to Phoenix College. These units sell for $100,000 to $300,000.
