El Mirador at Superstition Mountain

Elevated above the base of the legendary, world famous Superstition Mountain, El Mirador at Superstition Mountain (El Mirador) consists of a gated, secluded enclave of 47 desert view custom homesites ranging in size from approximately one-half acre to over two and one-half acres and all abutting natural area open space.  El Mirador is ideally situated on the northeast side of Silly Mountain in Gold Canyon, and all homesites within the community possess spectacular views of Superstition Mountain and the Superstition Mountain Golf and Country Club located below.  Without question, El Mirador’s superior panoramic view corridors offer some of the best views available in Arizona.  The community’s mountain and sunset views rival Fountain Hills and North Scottsdale in terms of sheer beauty in a dramatic setting. 

Even though El Mirador is a hillside development, the community consists of surprisingly buildable lots due to gently sloping contours and very few large rock outcroppings or boulders, and the excellent drainage patterns make lot preparation relatively inexpensive when compared to the costs of lot preparation within other subdivisions in the area.  In addition, the community’s elevation is simply spectacular.  El Mirador literally looks down upon the Superstition Mountain Golf and Country Club community.  El Mirador offers a degree of privacy and peaceful seclusion not found in other areas, and this special community is widely regarded as the premier location in Gold Canyon.

The desert serenity of El Mirador is unparalleled and sets the tone for a highly desirable community experience.  El Mirador (Spanish for “The Lookout” or “The View Point”) offers something for everyone!  As El Mirador is just a little more than a half hour from Phoenix’s Sky Harbor airport, within a half hour from Scottsdale, and within twenty or so minutes from Mesa, Gilbert, Chandler, and Tempe, the community is just beyond the reach of the city but yet in close proximity to the best shopping, dining, and entertainment that the Valley of the Sun has to offer.  For those who want to stay close to home, El Mirador offers abundant outdoor recreation and is just a stone’s throw away from numerous hiking trails among the giant Saguaro, beautiful walking and biking paths, several award winning golf courses, and perhaps even the Lost Dutchman’s Goldmine!  El Mirador is located within a pinnacle of nature allowing residents to experience the desert wilderness, admire amazingly beautiful sunsets, and occasionally come face-to-face with diverse wildlife.  

In sum, El Mirador is perfectly situated in terms of location, features, and timing to become one of the Valley’s premier “high end” residential communities.  The planning and attention to detail that went into the design of each lot speaks to the unsurpassed value and quality this community has to offer.  El Mirador provides upscale, luxury real estate with endless community amenities that will keep your guests coming back and allow you to enjoy a lifestyle that most will never know.  The superb views, higher elevations, easy to build lots, and competitive pricing offered in El Mirador make for a sound financial investment and a wonderful place to live and entertain…and best of all, opportunities still exist for you to become part of the El Mirador community!

“Not to have known - as most men have not - either the mountain or the desert is not to have know one’s self.  Not to have known one’s self is to have known no one”.
