A Prescott suburb in the Bradshaw Mountains

Among the Bradshaw Mountains of central Arizona and next to the regional hub of Prescott, The Ranch at Prescott is perched just around the corner from nature and urban life. The Ranch at Prescott may have been founded in 1987, but its growth has never stopped. Homes built as recently as 2023 offer hillside views of the city and the surrounding mountains, while the neighborhood’s main boulevard links to State Route 69 and a major retail hub. Realtor Rose Gowen with Keller Williams Arizona Realty, who has sold extensively in the area, says, “It’s suburban in the fact that it’s like a neighborhood, but the lots are larger. The homes are bigger and custom-built, and you could probably see a 90- to 180-degree view depending on where your home is.”

Outdoor adventures in the mountains

The Ranch at Prescott is surrounded by opportunities for outdoor exploration. At the community’s western end is Badger Mountain, which offers hikers a strenuous workout as they climb to its peak to take in the panoramic views of Prescott. Plus, there's the “Prescott ‘P’” landmark, an assemblage of white rocks visible from passing planes. To the east and south of the Ranch, hundreds of acres of Forest Service land and nearby trails provide nature lovers with near-limitless opportunities for hiking and camping. At the heart of this wilderness is Lynx Lake, a locally popular venue for fishing, camping, swimming and enjoying the outdoors.

Shopping and sushi at Pine Ridge Marketplace

Though The Ranch at Prescott may seemingly be surrounded by nature, one cannot enter the neighborhood without passing by the Pine Ridge Marketplace, one of the largest retail hubs in the Prescott area. The Trader Joe’s at this mall and the neighboring Costco offer groceries, while the mall is home to restaurants like WZ Poke and Ramen and many brand-name dining options. The mall is not only a major venue for shopping, however. “There’s a sports center at the mall, including indoor and outdoor pickleball,” Gowen says. “The Sears department store has been converted into a sports center, and the center of the mall has a food court and a beautiful rock fireplace where people gather.”

Hillside homes and social life at The Ranch

The Ranch at Prescott is a recent development, with its first homes dating to the late 1980s, and a significant number of them being less than two decades old. Only The Oaks subcommunity is gated off, and the rest of the neighborhood is connected by winding mountainside roads that offer commanding views of the surrounding countryside. Gowen says, “It’s very hilly there, so, the higher the elevation, you’re going to be seeing a lot more views of mountains, cities and open plains.” This neighborhood’s suburban lanes have dozens of ranch-style, bungalow and custom-built houses with great variety in both price and size. Homebuyers can expect to spend between $540,000 and $1 million for a ranch-style home or between $915,000 to $1.625 million for a larger and newer custom build. Not only does The Ranch at Prescott have an HOA, but it also offers annual subscriptions to the Ranch Social Club, which hosts social activities such as card games, dinner groups, hiking trips, book clubs, tennis games and quilting.
