North Scottsdale's most exclusive private golf club community. Tom Fazio championship course, 24/7 guarded gates, and custom estates from $2 million to $12 million+. This is Mirabel.
Mirabel stands apart from every other residential address in the Phoenix metro. Tucked into the McDowell Mountain foothills along the Pinnacle Peak corridor in North Scottsdale, this ultra-private gated enclave spans approximately 700 acres of pristine Sonoran Desert. It was conceived as a masterpiece from day one — a place where land, architecture, and lifestyle achieve a standard rarely found outside the world's great golf resort destinations. From its inception, Mirabel was designed not merely as a real estate development but as a community of consequence, where the caliber of the natural setting, the golf experience, and the neighborhood fabric would together create something truly irreplaceable.
At Mirabel's center is its legendary championship golf club, featuring a course designed by Tom Fazio — widely regarded as one of the most gifted golf course architects of the modern era. Fazio's design philosophy is to work with the land rather than impose upon it. The routing at Mirabel plays through natural desert arroyos, climbs granite ridgelines, and descends into canyon terrain that creates both visual drama and meaningful strategic challenge. The course measures approximately 6,800 yards from the back tees across five tee options, making it accessible to golfers of all abilities while still presenting significant challenge to accomplished players. It consistently ranks among the top five private courses in Arizona and appears regularly on national best-private-courses rankings. The quality of conditioning maintained by the club's agronomy team is exceptional year-round, taking advantage of Arizona's year-round golf climate while managing the demands of desert turf management with expertise that comes from decades of practice in this environment.
Mirabel encompasses approximately 500 homesites ranging from intimate golf villas to sprawling custom estates exceeding 10,000 square feet. Many residences were designed by Arizona's preeminent desert architects — Bing Hu, Bob Bacon, Candelaria Design, and other firms whose names are synonymous with the finest North Scottsdale residential architecture. Natural stone, steel, glass, and native desert landscaping weave each home into its surroundings with a sense of organic permanence. Unlike many luxury communities where architecture feels imposed on the land, Mirabel's homes feel discovered within it — as if the desert simply revealed spaces for habitation rather than being cleared and replaced with built form.
The Mirabel clubhouse is a destination unto itself: fine and casual dining, a state-of-the-art fitness center, resort-style swimming pool with cabanas, tennis courts, and an expansive golf practice complex. Social membership is available for residents who prefer access to all non-golf amenities without pursuing full golf membership. The overall atmosphere is relaxed yet distinctly refined — residents arrive by golf cart for dinner, gather on the terrace as the sun sets behind Pinnacle Peak, and build genuine community friendships that are increasingly rare in today's high-velocity world.
Mirabel is accessed via Mirabel Club Drive off Pima Road just north of Pinnacle Peak Road. Despite its secluded desert setting, the community places residents within a short drive of Kierland Commons, Scottsdale Quarter, Old Town Scottsdale, and resort spas at the Four Seasons Scottsdale at Troon North — literally four miles from the community's gates. Sky Harbor Airport is approximately 38 minutes south; Scottsdale Airport, popular with private aviation and consistently one of the nation's busiest general aviation airports, is only 22 minutes away. The Loop 101 freeway via Pima Road provides efficient connection to the broader Valley, placing Mirabel residents within practical reach of all major employment corridors without the sacrifices in quality of life that a more suburban location would impose.
In 2026, the Mirabel real estate market remains consistently competitive. Active inventory rarely exceeds 12–15 homes within the gates at any given time. The confluence of limited supply, unmatched golf amenities, and North Scottsdale's continued growth as a destination for high-net-worth individuals relocating from California, New York, and the Pacific Northwest keeps values on a sustained upward trajectory. Well-priced, well-presented homes find serious buyers in 45–90 days. Overpriced listings accumulate market stigma and ultimately sell for less than they would have at a strategic initial price — a pattern that Ryan Moxley's sellers avoid through disciplined, data-driven pricing from day one.
Many of the most desirable Mirabel transactions never reach the public MLS. Sellers at this price point value discretion, and some properties change hands between agents with established community relationships before any public announcement. Working with Ryan Moxley — who has cultivated a professional network throughout North Scottsdale's luxury market — provides early access to these off-market opportunities. For buyers who want Mirabel and are prepared to act, Ryan's network is a critical advantage in a community where supply is fundamentally constrained.
Mirabel encompasses several distinct sub-communities within its gates, each offering a different scale of home, lot size, and price point. The following table summarizes 2026 pricing by residence type based on MLS market research and comparable sales data.
| Residence Type | Square Footage | Bedrooms / Baths | Price Range (2026) | Est. Price / Sq Ft | Typical Lot Size |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Golf Villas / Patio Homes | 2,200–3,200 sq ft | 3–4 BD / 3–4 BA | $1.8M – $2.8M | $650–$800 | 6,000–9,000 sq ft |
| Custom Casitas / Smaller Estates | 3,200–5,000 sq ft | 4–5 BD / 4–5 BA | $2.5M – $4.5M | $600–$850 | 15,000–30,000 sq ft |
| Luxury Custom Estates | 5,000–8,000 sq ft | 5–6 BD / 5–7 BA | $4.0M – $8.0M | $650–$900 | 0.5–1.5 acres |
| Ultra-Luxury Custom Estates | 8,000–15,000+ sq ft | 6–8 BD / 7–10 BA | $7.5M – $14M+ | $750–$1,000+ | 1.5–3+ acres |
| Undeveloped Custom Lots | Build-to-suit | N/A | $900K – $2.5M+ | N/A | 0.5–3+ acres |

Within Mirabel's gates, specific lot characteristics command meaningful price premiums over standard interior lots. Understanding these premium drivers helps buyers evaluate competing properties and helps sellers price strategically.
Mirabel offers a relatively rare opportunity in the Phoenix luxury market: the ability to purchase an undeveloped lot within an established, amenitized private golf community and build a truly custom home. For buyers who have specific programmatic requirements — particular square footage, room configurations, garage capacity, pool/spa designs, or AV and smart-home technology infrastructure — a custom build within Mirabel may be more satisfying than purchasing an existing estate that requires significant remodeling. Custom builds in Mirabel typically involve construction timelines of 18–30 months from design to occupancy, with luxury home builders such as National Custom Homes, Salcito Custom Homes, and Phil Nichols Company active in the community. Ryan Moxley can connect custom build clients with experienced architects, builders, and the Mirabel ARC for pre-design guidance on what is permitted under the community's design standards.
Tom Fazio is widely considered the most prolific and accomplished golf course architect of his generation. His portfolio includes over 200 courses, including renovations to Augusta National, original designs for acclaimed clubs such as Shadow Creek (Las Vegas), Whisper Rock (Scottsdale), and Wade Hampton (North Carolina), and dozens of other nationally ranked private and resort facilities. When Mirabel's developers sought an architect for their flagship desert course, they chose Fazio because his design sensibility — restraint, naturalness, and strategic intelligence — was perfectly suited to the Sonoran Desert's inherent drama.
The routing at Mirabel reflects Fazio's cardinal rule: find the golf course within the land rather than building it on top. The 18-hole layout threads through natural desert arroyos, climbs granite ridgelines, and descends into canyon terrain with enough elevation change to create panoramic views while maintaining the strategic continuity that separates great courses from merely beautiful ones. The fairways are framed by true Sonoran Desert — saguaro cacti, palo verde trees, brittlebush, and ironwood — rather than maintained rough. Errant shots at Mirabel face genuine consequences in native desert terrain, providing the strategic tension that elevates the game beyond pure aesthetics.
Several holes at Mirabel have achieved iconic status in Arizona golf circles. A par-3 signature hole played from an elevated tee above a deep desert ravine toward a boulder-framed green commands one of the most dramatic tee shot views in Arizona golf. The closing holes return players toward the clubhouse terrace with mountain backdrops creating a cinematic finishing sequence. The course's conditioning is maintained by a full-time agronomy staff who manage Bermuda fairways and bent grass greens through Arizona's extreme temperature range, delivering exceptional playing surfaces in all four seasons — one of the distinct advantages of Arizona's golf climate compared to northern alternatives.
Mirabel's practice complex is commensurate with the course's reputation. The full-length driving range offers both mat and grass tees, with multiple target greens at varying distances. A dedicated short game area provides multiple chipping greens, a bunker complex replicating actual course conditions, and a dedicated pitching zone. The large putting green is available for pre-round warm-up and dedicated practice sessions. PGA professional instructors on staff provide private lessons, video analysis, on-course playing lessons, and junior golf development programs. Members seeking custom club fitting have access to a well-equipped fitting studio within the pro shop, offering major OEM and boutique club brands.
As a private club, Mirabel does not offer public tee times. Member guests are permitted within the club's published guest policy, which limits the frequency of guest appearances to protect the member experience. Annual guest days allow members to host friends and business associates for a more comprehensive club experience. Member-guest tournaments are among the club's most popular annual events, typically drawing participants from across the country and occasionally from international markets as members bring guests from their primary residences outside of Arizona.
Golf membership at Mirabel is exclusively by invitation. Prospective members must be sponsored by a current member in good standing. The application process includes a written application, social interviews with the membership committee, background review, and a formal committee vote. Wait times commonly extend 12–24 months or longer; the club manages its membership roster carefully to maintain the uncrowded conditions that define the Mirabel experience.
Initiation fees for golf membership at a club of Mirabel's caliber and regional ranking are substantial — typically in the range of $100,000–$200,000+ depending on market conditions and membership tier, though exact current amounts should be confirmed directly with the club. Annual golf dues add approximately $28,000–$55,000+ per year depending on membership category, with additional cart fees, food and beverage minimums, locker charges, and facility fees.
Social membership is available and grants access to the clubhouse, dining rooms, fitness center, swimming complex, and tennis facilities without golf privileges. Social membership provides an excellent entry point into the Mirabel community for residents who are not active golfers or who are waiting for golf membership availability. Home ownership in Mirabel confers neither automatic golf membership nor guaranteed social membership — these are separate club decisions managed by the membership committee independent of the real estate process.

The Mirabel Golf Club's social calendar is active throughout the year, creating the community fabric that makes living within the gates genuinely enriching. Annual highlights include: the member-guest golf tournament (one of the club's most anticipated events, drawing participants from across the country); charity fundraiser galas that support North Scottsdale and Cave Creek community organizations; wine dinners featuring Arizona, California, and imported wine collections; holiday celebrations for Thanksgiving, Christmas, and New Year's; ladies' golf association events and tournaments throughout the fall and spring golf seasons; men's club events including regular game days, handicap tournaments, and championship competitions; junior golf development clinics during school holiday periods; and fitness events ranging from 5K fun runs to member fitness challenges.
Mirabel operates under a master homeowners association that governs community-wide standards including private road maintenance, common area landscaping, entrance aesthetics, lighting, and security services. Individual sub-communities within Mirabel's gates have their own sub-associations with additional fees covering sub-neighborhood landscaping, exterior building maintenance for villa-style products, or supplemental community amenities specific to that sub-community. Total combined HOA assessments (master plus applicable sub-association fees) typically range from approximately $1,800 to $4,500+ per year for most Mirabel homes, though villa products with full exterior maintenance included in the HOA can carry higher fee structures commensurate with the maintenance services provided.
These assessments cover the considerable ongoing costs of maintaining a community of Mirabel's caliber: 24/7 security staffing, common area irrigation (significant in the desert climate), landscaping maintenance of entries and shared green spaces, private road upkeep, exterior lighting, and reserve fund contributions for future capital improvements. The HOA's reserve fund adequacy is an important due diligence item for buyers — a well-funded reserve suggests no immediate special assessments; an underfunded reserve may indicate pending large expenditures that will require additional member contributions.
Under Arizona Revised Statutes §33-1806, sellers of HOA-regulated properties must provide buyers with the full HOA disclosure package including CC&Rs, bylaws, current financial statements, reserve fund study, pending special assessments (if any), and management company contact information. Buyers should carefully review all HOA documents during the inspection period; Ryan Moxley recommends consultation with a real estate attorney for the CC&Rs review at Mirabel's price point, where non-compliance with HOA rules can create significant financial exposure.
Under ARS §33-1807, homeowners associations have statutory authority to place liens on properties for unpaid assessments and to pursue foreclosure for chronic non-payment. Before closing on any Mirabel property, buyers should obtain a statement of account from the HOA confirming no outstanding balances, delinquent assessments, or pending special assessments. Ryan ensures this documentation is obtained during the escrow period for every Mirabel transaction he handles.
All exterior modifications, additions, landscaping changes, outbuilding or casita additions, solar panel installations, pool additions, fence or wall installations, and new construction within Mirabel require prior Architectural Review Committee (ARC) approval before any work commences. Plans must typically be submitted 30–60 days before the anticipated start date. The ARC maintains published design guidelines specifying permitted building materials, exterior colors, roof types and materials, entry gate designs, exterior lighting specifications, landscape palette requirements, and setback standards. Non-compliant modifications or construction can result in mandatory remediation at the homeowner's expense, including potential legal action by the HOA to compel compliance with governing documents.
Arizona's SBAR law (ARS §9-500.39) prohibits municipalities from enacting outright bans on short-term rentals (STRs) at the city or county level. However, the statute explicitly permits HOA CC&Rs to restrict or prohibit STRs within private gated communities. Mirabel's CC&Rs include meaningful STR restrictions. Buyers who intend any type of rental strategy — short-term vacation rental, executive housing, or periodic rental while the owner travels — should carefully review the CC&Rs before committing to purchase and consult with a real estate attorney regarding compliance obligations and any required STR licensing under applicable Arizona law.
Mirabel maintains staffed gate security 24 hours a day, 7 days a week at its primary gated entrance. Resident vehicles are equipped with electronic transponders for seamless primary access without stopping. Guest vehicles are registered through the guardhouse by security staff. Interior community patrols operate throughout the day and night, adding an additional layer of security coverage throughout the neighborhood. The community perimeter is secured by a combination of decorative block walls, natural terrain barriers including desert arroyos and rocky hillsides, and perimeter fencing where appropriate. The overall security infrastructure represents a substantial ongoing operational expense for the community — one of the primary reasons for Mirabel's HOA fees — and is a defining feature of the premium that Mirabel commands relative to non-gated North Scottsdale addresses.
Mirabel homes are served by Arizona American Water Company (domestic water service), Southwest Gas Corporation (natural gas), and Arizona Public Service (APS) for electricity. APS is the primary electric utility throughout the greater Scottsdale area; APS electric bills for large custom homes in Mirabel can be substantial during Arizona's extreme summer months, with 6,000–10,000+ square foot homes commonly generating monthly electric bills of $400–$1,000+ in July and August. Buyers should request 12 months of utility history from sellers to understand the full annual utility cost profile of any specific Mirabel home they are considering.
Most homes in Mirabel are served by private septic systems rather than a connection to Scottsdale's municipal sewer system. Septic system inspection — including a pump-out of the tank and a camera inspection of both the inlet and outlet lines and the leach field distribution system — is an essential component of Mirabel due diligence. Caliche, the hard calcium carbonate layer common throughout Arizona desert soils, can significantly complicate leach field installation and replacement, affecting cost estimates for any septic system work that may be needed. Replacement of a septic system in North Scottsdale ranges from approximately $25,000 to $60,000 or more depending on soil conditions, lot topography, and system type. Buyers should understand the septic system's condition and remaining estimated useful life before proceeding to close.
High-speed fiber-optic internet connectivity is available at most Mirabel addresses through multiple competing providers, supporting the remote executive lifestyle that characterizes a significant portion of the community's resident base. Smart home technology infrastructure, including whole-home automation, lighting control, security camera systems, and AV distribution, is common in Mirabel's custom estate inventory.
Mirabel falls within the Cave Creek Unified School District (CCUSD), consistently ranked among the strongest public school districts in Greater Phoenix. CCUSD schools are recognized for academic excellence, outstanding arts and athletics programs, and high levels of parental and community engagement that contribute to a positive educational environment at every grade level.
Strong STEM programming, arts integration, and an outdoor education curriculum that leverages the nearby Sonoran Desert environment. Typically rated 8–9/10 on school rating platforms. Small class sizes, dedicated faculty, and high parental involvement distinguish the school community. After-school programs and enrichment activities provide additional academic and extracurricular depth. The school's proximity to the desert preserve enables unique field learning opportunities unavailable in urban school settings.
Advanced academic tracks, extensive extracurricular activities including competitive athletics, student government, arts programs, and a rigorous core curriculum. The school prepares students well for the academic demands of Cactus Shadows High School through a structured progression of skills and expectations. Teacher quality and parental engagement are consistently cited by CCUSD parents as the school's defining strengths.
CCUSD's flagship high school and one of the most respected public high schools in North Scottsdale. Highly regarded for its comprehensive AP course catalog, dual enrollment partnerships with Scottsdale Community College, nationally recognized performing arts and visual arts programs, competitive athletics across major varsity sports, and strong college placement metrics. Graduation rates consistently above 95%. Regular recognition from Arizona Department of Education for academic excellence.
Basis Scottsdale (rigorous STEM curriculum; nationally ranked), Rancho Solano Preparatory School (K–12 college prep), Notre Dame Preparatory (Catholic; strong athletics and academics), Pinnacle High School (charter; college prep focus), and American Leadership Academy (charter; character development emphasis) are all within 20–30 minutes. Numerous faith-based private school options are also available within the broader North Scottsdale and Cave Creek corridors.

The Loop 101 (Pima Freeway) provides efficient connection from North Scottsdale to the broader Phoenix metro. Mirabel's access via Pima Road north of Pinnacle Peak Road offers straightforward routing to the freeway system without the congestion challenges that affect more central urban locations. Scottsdale Airport (SDL) is particularly attractive for Mirabel residents who travel by private aircraft — the airport handles all common private aircraft types including large-cabin jets and is consistently one of the busiest general aviation facilities in the United States.
Mirabel home ownership does not automatically confer golf membership. Golf membership requires invitation by a current member, involves a formal application and committee review process, and entails a significant initiation fee and ongoing annual dues separate from the home purchase. If club access is a priority, begin the membership application process as early as possible — ideally concurrent with your home search. Ryan Moxley can facilitate introductions to the club membership office as part of his buyer representation service.
Many of the most compelling Mirabel listings never reach the public MLS. Sellers at $3M–$10M+ often prefer discreet transactions, and some properties change hands between agents with established community relationships before any public announcement. Ryan's professional network within North Scottsdale's luxury market provides early access to these off-market opportunities — a critical advantage in a community where supply is fundamentally constrained and competition is real.
Beyond the purchase price, prospective Mirabel owners should budget comprehensively for the full annual cost of ownership:
For properties priced above $2 million, sellers and listing agents routinely require proof-of-funds letters for cash buyers or jumbo mortgage pre-qualification letters from reputable private banking institutions alongside any offer. The 2026 Maricopa County conforming loan limit is $806,500 — virtually all Mirabel purchases require jumbo financing or cash. Jumbo mortgage underwriting involves more extensive documentation, longer processing timelines, and typically larger down payment requirements than conventional loans; begin the lender conversation 45–60 days before you anticipate making an offer.
Request the full HOA document package before making an offer — don't wait for contract execution. Mirabel's CC&Rs govern: rental restrictions (including STR limitations), exterior modification approvals, accessory structure limitations, solar panel placement, RV and boat storage prohibitions, pet breed and size limitations, signage restrictions, and commercial use prohibitions. ARS §33-1806 requires sellers to provide this package; request it upfront and review carefully with your real estate attorney.
Engage ASHI- or InterNACHI-certified inspectors with demonstrated luxury home experience. Arizona does not license home inspectors at the state level — credentials and relevant experience matter significantly. Key inspection focus areas for Mirabel homes:
Arizona's agency law requires clear buyer representation agreements when an agent is working in a buyer's interest. Ryan Moxley represents buyers exclusively in every transaction he handles — he does not simultaneously represent sellers and buyers in the same transaction. Your interests are Ryan's sole professional focus throughout the home search, offer, negotiation, due diligence, and closing process. This commitment to exclusive buyer representation is particularly important in Mirabel's small, relationship-driven market where conflicts of interest can arise when agents represent both buyer and seller in the same community.
Mirabel's fundamentally constrained inventory means that well-priced listings attract multiple qualified buyers. Serious buyers should be prepared to move quickly when the right property becomes available, present clean offers with appropriate contingency timelines, and consider pre-inspection strategies for properties that come to market with comprehensive disclosure packages already prepared. Ryan's experience in North Scottsdale's luxury market positions your offer competitively without overextending your negotiating position unnecessarily.
Before committing to a Mirabel purchase, high-net-worth buyers should consult with a CPA and estate planning attorney regarding: entity structuring for the ownership (LLC, trust, etc.) and its implications for liability protection, financing eligibility, and estate planning; IRC §121 primary residence exclusion eligibility for capital gains planning; Arizona's 2.5% flat state income tax treatment of capital gains; and beneficiary deed planning under ARS §33-405 for efficient estate transfer outside of Arizona probate.
Ryan Moxley brings specific North Scottsdale luxury market expertise, off-market access, club membership facilitation, and a commitment to exclusive buyer representation that makes a genuine difference in Mirabel transactions. Contact Ryan for a confidential consultation to discuss your Mirabel home search, the current off-market opportunity landscape, and how Ryan's network can help you secure the Mirabel home that meets your specific requirements.
Mirabel's perpetually limited inventory — rarely more than 12–15 active listings within the gates at any point — creates a fundamentally seller-favorable market dynamic. The sustained demand driver is North Scottsdale's continued attraction for high-net-worth individuals relocating from California, New York, and the Pacific Northwest. Arizona's 2.5% flat income tax rate (compared to California's up to 13.3% or New York's up to 10.9%), zero state estate tax, warm climate, and world-class lifestyle amenities continue to draw exactly the affluent professional, executive, and retiree demographic that represents Mirabel's natural buyer pool. The TSMC Fab 21 semiconductor campus in North Phoenix's Deer Valley corridor and Intel's expanded Chandler operations continue to attract engineering and executive talent to the Valley, adding another high-income buyer segment seeking luxury North Scottsdale addresses.
Mirabel homes that are correctly priced based on actual MLS comparable sales data, in excellent condition, and marketed with professional-caliber presentation typically sell within 45–90 days at prices close to asking. Overpriced listings in the luxury segment sit on market for extended periods, accumulate market stigma, and ultimately sell for materially less than a strategically priced initial listing would have achieved. Ryan Moxley's CMA process uses actual MLS sold data — Arizona's non-disclosure status makes MLS data the only reliable pricing source — to position your home competitively from listing day one.
Selling a Mirabel home requires marketing that matches the property's distinction. Ryan Moxley's luxury seller services include: professional architectural photography capturing both interior grandeur and exterior desert setting, twilight photography that showcases Mirabel's dramatic desert sunsets and mountain backdrops, aerial drone footage providing perspective on the home's golf course and lot context within the broader community, 3D Matterport virtual tour enabling remote buyers to experience the home virtually before visiting in person, targeted digital advertising campaigns reaching high-net-worth buyer audiences across Google, Facebook, Instagram, and luxury real estate platforms, and outreach to Ryan's professional network of luxury buyer agents, relocation specialists, and corporate concierge services active in the North Scottsdale market.
For sellers who prefer discretion, Ryan can provide private pre-market exposure to qualified buyers from his network before any MLS or public listing, enabling some Mirabel sellers to complete transactions without their home ever appearing in public marketing channels.
Buyers at Mirabel's price point have exceptionally high expectations for home presentation and condition. Sellers who invest appropriately in pre-listing preparation consistently achieve faster sales and stronger prices than sellers who list without preparation. Ryan Moxley's pre-listing checklist for Mirabel homes includes:
Arizona law (ARS §33-422) requires sellers to complete the Seller's Property Disclosure Statement (SPDS), disclosing all known material facts about the property's condition, history, neighborhood, and any known issues or improvements. Sellers of HOA-governed properties must additionally provide the full HOA disclosure package under ARS §33-1806. These requirements protect sellers from post-closing liability when completed accurately and completely. Ryan Moxley guides sellers through the full disclosure process and recommends consultation with a real estate attorney for high-value transactions where disclosure complexity is elevated.
Luxury transactions in Mirabel typically run 30–60 days from accepted contract to close, though jumbo financing transactions may run slightly longer due to more extensive underwriting. Cash transactions can close faster when title work is unencumbered. Arizona's dry funding protocol means recording day, funding day, and key transfer all occur simultaneously — on closing day, all parties must have funds wired and all documents signed; there is no gap between document execution and home access. Large wire transfers for high-value transactions require advance coordination with financial institutions; buyers should initiate wire preparation 3–5 days before closing to avoid last-minute delays.
Mirabel is an ultra-exclusive private golf club community in North Scottsdale spanning approximately 700 gated acres near Pinnacle Peak Road. What makes Mirabel genuinely special is the combination of its Tom Fazio-designed championship golf course — consistently ranked among Arizona's top five private courses — with approximately 500 custom homesites in a fully secured, guarded environment that maintains genuine scarcity and exclusivity. The community's adjacency to Pinnacle Peak Park and the McDowell Sonoran Preserve adds a level of natural beauty and outdoor recreation access that urban or suburban luxury communities cannot replicate. World-class clubhouse amenities including fine dining, fitness, resort pool, and tennis complete the picture. Golf membership is by invitation only and entirely separate from real estate ownership.
Mirabel homes in 2026 range from approximately $1.8 million for golf villas and patio homes to $12 million or more for large custom estate properties. The median sale price is approximately $3.5–4.5 million. Price per square foot falls between $550 and $900+, with golf course-fronting lots (15–30% premium) and mountain view lots (10–20% premium) commanding the highest per-square-foot values. Undeveloped custom lots are available at $900K–$2.5M+ for buyers who wish to commission a fully custom home from the ground up. Arizona is a non-disclosure state; all pricing data is derived from MLS records. Contact Ryan Moxley for current active listings and recent sold comparables.
Yes. Mirabel is a fully gated community with 24/7 staffed security at its primary entrance gate. Resident vehicles use electronic transponders for seamless access. Guest vehicles are registered and credentialed through the guardhouse security staff. Interior community patrols add an additional security layer throughout the neighborhood. The community perimeter is secured by block walls, decorative fencing, and natural terrain barriers. This comprehensive security infrastructure is one of Mirabel's most valued features and a significant factor in the premium pricing that Mirabel commands relative to non-gated North Scottsdale addresses.
The Mirabel Golf Club's 18-hole championship course was designed by Tom Fazio, widely considered one of the greatest golf course architects of the modern era. The course plays through dramatic Sonoran Desert terrain with natural granite outcroppings, significant elevation changes, and panoramic views of Pinnacle Peak and the McDowell Mountains. It consistently ranks among Arizona's top five private golf courses and regularly appears on national best-private-courses lists. Golf club membership is by invitation only — prospective members must be sponsored by a current member in good standing, with wait times that commonly extend 12–24 months or longer.
Mirabel is within the Cave Creek Unified School District (CCUSD). Public school assignments include Desert Willow Elementary School (K–6, typically rated 8–9/10), Sonoran Trails Middle School (7–8), and Cactus Shadows High School (9–12) — CCUSD's flagship high school with comprehensive AP offerings, dual enrollment programs, performing arts, competitive athletics, and graduation rates consistently above 95%. Many Mirabel families also choose private schools: Basis Scottsdale, Rancho Solano Preparatory, Notre Dame Preparatory, and Pinnacle High School are all within 20–30 minutes.
