Summit is a quiet desert community south of Tucson, where you get spacious lots, dirt roads and a mix of manufactured and Spanish Revival-style homes. Buyers are drawn to the lot size and the area’s flexible land use without any HOAs. Although Summit feels like a private corner of Pima County, residents can reach everyday shopping, dining and community events in nearby Tucson and Sahuarita.
Homes across Summit range from manufactured to simple Spanish Revival builds spread out from each other on large lots. Some of the main roads are paved, but most of the residential streets are dirt roads. Despite the desert setting, many properties have trees and some shrubbery. The home prices can range from the lower $200,000s to the lower $400,000s, depending on the home and lot size. “There’s a lot of interest in Summit because the zoning allows freedom for people who don’t want to bother with HOAs," says Realtor Laura Moreno with Re/Max Portfolio Homes. Summit is also in a part of Pima County that allows livestock and certain commercial buildings. "We’re starting to see people acquire the land to build their businesses," Laura explains.
Summit's location and landscape can make it feel like an isolated community, but you're about 10 miles from Downtown Tucson and less than 10 miles from Sahuarita. “Summit is an area of residential homes between Green Valley and Sahuarita, along old Nogales Highway,” says Realtor Antonio Reyes Moreno, who teams up with his wife Laura to sell homes with Re/Max Portfolio Homes. South Nogales Highway is the main path to take and connect onto Interstate 10 and the way to downtown Tucson. You might hop on Interstate 19 to reach Green Valley.
Families in Summit are part of the Sunnyside Unified School District. Summit View Elementary School is in the heart of the community. The district's middle and high schools are mostly in South Tucson, so families in Summit get an easier trip to school during elementary years.
Summit Park is right next door to Summit View Elementary, and you have a baseball diamond near a paved basketball half-court and a playground. Some people visit the park to walk the paved path that goes around the park's perimeter.
Typically, Summit residents head to South Tucson or Sahuarita to dine out. Some of the nearest options are close to the Tucson International Airport, including:
Life in Summit is quiet, so when you want to join annual events, there are options in nearby areas like Tucson and Sahuarita. Residents can take a short drive to join in on:
