Enjoy Year-Round Vacation Living in Arizona Biltmore



Visitors to the Biltmore community in Phoenix quickly discover what countless celebrities and other residents have known for a long time– a home in Biltmore offers year-round vacation living in an upscale neighborhood. Here are just a few of the many aspects that contribute to Biltmore’s reputation as the preferred location for distinguished homebuyers in Phoenix.


Landscape Vistas to Die For

The views from many homes in this affluent locale will take your breath away. Where else can you wake up every day in a spa-like setting and enjoy magnificent vistas of the Piestewa Peak, Camelback Mountains, City of Phoenix and Sonoran Desert on your morning walk? Combine that with incredible sunsets and you have all the key ingredients for a permanent vacation home.


Biltmore’s Rich Heritage

The Biltmore area owes its name and heritage to the world-renowned Arizona Biltmore Hotel, constructed in 1929 with architectural input from Frank Lloyd Wright. Known as the “Jewel of the Desert”, the Arizona Biltmore has been hosting celebrities, politicians and dignitaries for 85 years. Irving Berlin is rumored to have written “White Christmas” while vacationing here. Marilyn Monroe was a frequent poolside guest and Ronald and Nancy Reagan spent their honeymoon at the Biltmore. Phoenix residents consistently vote the Arizona Biltmore as one of their Phoenix Points of Pride.


Art, Restaurants & Shopping

Biltmore residents have easy access to shopping and dining at the sprawling hotel/spa complex, plus all that the greater Phoenix Scottsdale area has to offer. Foodies are kept busy at the local farmer’s markets and world-class dining spots, while shoppers enjoy Biltmore Fashion Park which is home to Louis Vuitton, Saks Fifth Avenue, Cartier and dozens of other high-end retailers. The entire district abounds with art galleries, sure to please even the most finicky collector.


Recreation

The Sonoran Desert’s warm, dry climate permits pleasure for golf and tennis enthusiasts, as well as mountain bikers, hikers, runners and walkers, throughout the year. All these activities are enjoyed against the backdrop of the spectacular desert scenery. A brisk morning stroll followed by lunch and golf on the same course that has hosted U.S. presidents is a typical day in Biltmore. And you can end each with a heart-stopping sunset.
 


Whether you’re looking for a year-round or second vacation home, Arizona’s Biltmore neighborhood is worth a look. Every day will feel like a holiday!
