Harrison East South offers desert views with easy access to city life

Like its Eastside neighbor to the north, Harrison East South feels remote but isn’t. Bounded by East 22nd Street to the north, South Houghton Road to the east, East Golf Links Road to the south and South Harrison Street to the west, this community of multiple subdivisions is squarely located between major thoroughfares that cut through sparse, expansive desert but lead to shopping, dining and recreation. Perpendicular streets open into attractive enclaves of well-kept homes with tidy landscaping and spectacular views of the Rincon Mountains from every window. Homeowners who want to keep the city at a distance can do so, comfortably, here.

Slump block and stucco homes with prices up to $570,000

While few homes look the same, most are 1970s slump block or 1980s stucco with modern updates. A townhome in the Village Green community includes the use of a pool, rec room and tennis courts, supported by HOA dues. Whatever your address, desert landscaping – think rocks, cacti, small trees – is common, though residents express personality with clustered plantings and bold paint. Slump-block homes come with carports and room for RVs, while newer construction favors multicar garages. However, the expansive network of sidewalks and dedicated bike trails throughout Harrison East-South might tempt you to leave your car at home. If you find a home you like, act on it quickly. Homes stay on the market less than two weeks, and sellers get what they’re asking. Prices in the neighborhood run from $265,000 to $570,000, averaging in the low $300s for a three-bedroom single-family home with 1,800 square feet, and $265,000 for a 1,300-square-foot townhome.
