Biltmore Homes for Sale in Phoenix, AZ 85016

The Biltmore area is the busy heart of central Phoenix around 24th Street and Camelback Road, ZIP 85016, next to the Piestewa Peak Freeway (SR-51) and anchored by Biltmore Fashion Park and the Camelback Corridor office district. Homes here range from mid-rise and high-rise condo towers built in the 2000s to 1950s ranch homes on quiet side streets.

I'm Terry Day with DeLex Realty. The Biltmore area is where a lot of Phoenix works, shops and eats, and it is one of the few parts of the Valley where you can live in a condo tower and walk to dinner. This page covers the corridor and the neighborhoods around it. For the golf course communities around the resort itself, see my Arizona Biltmore Estates guide.

Where the Biltmore area is

The name comes from the Arizona Biltmore resort, which opened in 1929 just north of Camelback Road, and development along the Camelback Corridor followed over the decades. The City of Phoenix plans the center of it as the Camelback East Primary Core, generally bounded by the Piestewa Peak Freeway (SR-51), 26th Street, Camelback Road and Highland Avenue, with a wider area stretching from 16th Street to 28th Street. The area sits in the Camelback East village, between Piestewa Peak and Camelback Mountain.

SR-51 puts north Phoenix and downtown within easy reach, and light rail runs along Central Avenue to the west, with a station at Central and Camelback.

The homes

Few parts of Phoenix offer as many types of homes in such a small area:

  • Condo towers: Esplanade Place at 2402 E. Esplanade Lane (built in 2002, 14 stories, 56 units), Optima Biltmore Towers on 24th Street (built in 2006) and the Residences at 2211 Camelback (built in 2006, 12 stories).
  • Townhomes and smaller condo communities on the streets around the core.
  • Single-family ranch homes in older subdivisions such as Biltmore Manor, south of Camelback, where some homes date to the 1950s.

The city's plan for the core encourages mid-rise housing while protecting the existing single-family neighborhoods around it, so you get city living and quiet streets within a few blocks of each other.

Things to do

  • Biltmore Fashion Park: the open-air shopping center at 24th Street and Camelback opened in 1963. RED Development bought it in 2024 and has announced a redevelopment, so expect changes over the next few years.
  • Restaurants and shops along Camelback Road, plus Town and Country and the Camelback Colonnade nearby.
  • Piestewa Peak and Dreamy Draw: trails in the Phoenix Mountains Preserve a short drive north. The city sets trail and parking hours, and dogs are not allowed on the Summit Trail.
  • Arizona Biltmore Golf Club and the historic resort just north of Camelback.

Schools

School assignments depend on the exact address. Listings for the Optima Biltmore Towers show the Madison School District (Madison No. 1 and Madison Park) and Camelback High School in the Phoenix Union High School District. Listings for Biltmore Manor south of Camelback show the Creighton Elementary School District (Larry C. Kennedy) and Camelback High School. Confirm the assigned schools for a specific home with each district.

HOA basics

The condo towers and townhome communities have their own associations that cover building operations, common areas and amenities, and their rules on rentals, pets and parking matter. Older single-family subdivisions vary, so check the title report and disclosures to see whether a specific home has an HOA.

Buying in the Biltmore area

Start by choosing between tower living, a townhome or a house with a yard, because each one is a different search. For condos, I review the association's budget, reserves, special assessments and rental rules before you commit. For older houses, inspections on roofs, plumbing and electrical come first. If you want to ask about taking over a seller's lower-rate loan, see my assumable mortgage guide, and if you're just starting, read first steps to buying a home in Arizona.

Selling your Biltmore home

Condo buyers compare buildings closely, so highlight your floor, views, parking and the amenities your building offers, and have the association documents ready. House sellers should point to the location: few homes this central have a yard and a quiet street. Read how to price your Arizona home to sell, then call me for a pricing review.
