North Phoenix sits close enough to our Carefree headquarters that it's a natural extension of our core Arizona service area, spanning everything from newer master-planned communities near Desert Ridge to larger view lots bordering the Sonoran Preserve. Custom home buyers here tend to be drawn by lot size and mountain or preserve views, which we design around from the first site visit — orientation, glazing, and outdoor living space all follow from the specific homesite rather than a standard plan.
We also handle a steady stream of renovation work in North Phoenix's established neighborhoods, updating kitchens, primary suites, and outdoor living spaces on homes built through the 1990s and 2000s to match the indoor-outdoor lifestyle newer North Phoenix construction is known for, without the cost of starting over on a new lot.
