21st century homes on suburban streets
The neighborhood features clusters of homes from the early 2000s on quiet streets that often lead to cul-de-sacs. Most single-family homes in Mountaingate cost between $500,000 and $800,000, but some new builds with six or more bedrooms can range from $1 million to $3 million. Most homes are large Craftsman or Spanish Mediterranean houses built in the 21st century. Homes themselves are large, but lots tend to be small, so houses are close together. Wide sidewalks allow for exercise and dog walking underneath the blazing Arizona sun. There are scenic views of mountains in the distance but not a lot of greenery because of the desert climate. Most lawns have rock landscaping instead of grass.
Various homes are nestled within quite cul-de-sacs in Mountaingate.
