Luxury Homes on Large Lots for Sale in Paradise Valley, AZ

Paradise Valley was founded around the idea of one home per acre, so most of its $1M+ homes sit on lots of an acre or more all across town, between Camelback Mountain on the south and the Phoenix Mountains on the west, with Mummy Mountain in the middle. Expect custom homes, mountain views and extra design review on hillside lots.

I'm Terry Day with DeLex Realty. This page shows homes priced at $1 million and up on lots of at least one acre (43,560 square feet) in the Town of Paradise Valley. Here is what I checked on the Town's own pages, Maricopa County rules and local news, written in my own words, so you know what comes with a big lot here before you fall for one.

Why lots are big in Paradise Valley

The big lots here are not an accident. According to the Town's history page, homes went up after World War II on lots of one to five acres, and in 1961 residents asked the Maricopa County Board of Supervisors to let them form their own town. They were worried that Phoenix or Scottsdale would annex them and their rural feel would disappear. Their goals were simple: one house per acre, a town that is almost entirely residential, and a small local government. The Town was incorporated on May 24, 1961, and its boundaries were mostly settled by 1968.

That plan still shapes the market. Local reporting on the Town's zoning says the R-43 district, which means one home per 43,560 square feet, covers roughly two thirds of the land, and the General Plan keeps a one-acre minimum lot size. Some older areas have different districts, so always check the zoning on a specific parcel.

Where the large-lot luxury homes are

In most cities a large-lot home is found on the edge of town. In Paradise Valley it is the whole town. You will find acre-plus homes on flat land near Lincoln Drive and Tatum Boulevard, and on the slopes of the mountains. A few areas buyers ask me about:

Mummy Mountain: it sits in the middle of town. Its slopes are mostly homes and its summit is kept as open land. See my Mummy Mountain homes page.
The north side of Camelback Mountain: Camelback forms the town's southern edge, and the homes on its northern slopes are known for views back across the valley.
Named neighborhoods in listings: MLS listings with Paradise Valley addresses often name subdivisions such as Clearwater Hills, Cheney Estates and Finisterre. Each has its own feel, lot shapes and, in some cases, its own HOA rules.

The town also has resorts, which are allowed only by Special Use Permit. The Town's resort list includes the JW Marriott Camelback Inn, Sanctuary Camelback Mountain, Omni Scottsdale Resort and Spa at Montelucia, Mountain Shadows, the Hermosa Inn and others. If a home borders a resort, read the resort's permit terms on the Town website so you know what can and can't be built next door.

Hillside lots: what the Town reviews

A lot on the side of a mountain looks wonderful, but it comes with rules. The Town has a Hillside Building Committee of six members (three residents appointed by the Council and three rotating Planning Commissioners). It reviews new homes, remodels, pools, solar and accessory buildings on hillside lots, and looks at how much land is disturbed, building height, lighting, materials, grading and drainage. The Town's FAQ lists a 24-foot maximum building height on hillside lots and limits on outdoor lighting. The Town has a GIS map that shows which parcels fall under the hillside rules, so check it before you plan a remodel or a new pool.

Utilities and services on a big lot

Water: the Town's Water Companies page lists four providers: Berneil Water, the City of Phoenix, EPCOR and the City of Scottsdale. Which one serves a home depends on the address.
Sewer or septic: sewer service comes from the City of Phoenix or from the Town (operated by the City of Scottsdale), and the Town notes that many properties are on septic systems. In Maricopa County the seller has the septic system inspected within six months before closing, and the buyer files a Notice of Transfer with the county within 15 days after closing.
Police and fire: the Town has its own police department and contracts with the City of Phoenix for fire service. The Town also requires fire sprinklers in new homes.

Guest houses, rentals and lot splits

Many acre-plus homes here have a guest house or casita. Before you count on one, ask the Town what is allowed on that lot. Arizona's newer accessory dwelling law applies to larger cities, not to a town the size of Paradise Valley, so the Town's own code governs. If you plan to rent the home short-term, the Town requires a short-term rental permit. Under state law the whole property is rented as one unit, guest buildings can't be rented separately, and an HOA can have its own limits. Splitting a lot depends on the minimum lot size and width for its zoning district, and variances go to the Board of Adjustment.

Schools

Most of Paradise Valley is served by Scottsdale Unified School District, and a smaller part falls in Phoenix-area districts. Despite its name, Paradise Valley Unified serves northeast Phoenix and north Scottsdale, not the Town. Confirm the school assignment for any address with the district.

Things to check before you buy

The exact zoning, lot size and whether the parcel is on the hillside map
Septic or sewer, and the septic inspection report
Which water company serves the home
Any HOA or neighborhood rules, plus guest house and short-term rental limits
Washes, drainage and flood zone on larger lots
Views that could change if a nearby lot is built on

Selling a large-lot home in Paradise Valley

Buyers at this level compare land, views and privacy as much as square footage. When I price a Paradise Valley home, I look at recent sales with similar lot size, view and hillside status, not just the same bedroom count. Read how I price an Arizona home to sell, and if a buyer may want to take over your loan, see my assumable mortgage page.

Questions buyers ask

Are all Paradise Valley lots at least one acre?

No, but most are. The R-43 one-acre district covers most of the town and the General Plan sets a one-acre minimum, while some older areas have other zoning, so check the parcel.

Do hillside lots have extra rules?

Yes. Hillside lots go through the Town's Hillside Building Committee, which reviews grading, height, lighting and materials, and the Town's FAQ lists a 24-foot height limit on hillside lots.

Are Paradise Valley homes on sewer or septic?

It depends on the home. Many are on septic, which means a pre-sale inspection and a county Notice of Transfer, while others connect to Phoenix or Town sewer.

Can I rent out a guest house separately?

Not as a short-term rental. Under state law and the Town's rules, a short-term rental is rented as one whole property, and the Town requires a permit.
