Montecito Real Estate

Montecito at McDowell Mountain Ranch was developed by Greystone Homes from 1997 ~ 1999 and consists of 83 single family homes. Montecito was one of the last subdivisions built in McDowell Mountain Ranch.  Montecito offered four different floor plans, two single level plans and two multi-story plans. These floor plans ranged in size from 2,200 square feet to 3,600 square feet.  It is located on the south east corner of Thompson Peak Parkway and Bell Road. Montecito has so much to offer including sensational views of the McDowell Mountains and spectacular city lights.  In addition, Montecito is located directly across from the trail head to the Scottsdale Sonoran Preserve and Gateway to the McDowell’s, making it convenient for bikers, walkers, and joggers to hike the preserve and is close to shopping at the Basha’s Shopping Center.
