About DC Ranch, Scottsdale
DC Ranch is one of North Scottsdale's most celebrated master-planned communities, offering a lifestyle that seamlessly blends luxury living with the natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert. Spanning approximately 4,400 acres in the McDowell Mountain foothills, DC Ranch encompasses multiple distinct neighborhoods — each with its own character and price point — all sharing access to the community's exceptional amenities.
The community's infrastructure is designed around the concept of "village living" — walkable neighborhoods connected by trails, gathering spaces, and shared amenities. The Market Street area serves as DC Ranch's town center, with restaurants, boutique shops, a spa, and professional services within walking distance of many homes. Two community centers — The Ranch Club and Market Street Club — provide resort-style pools, tennis and pickleball courts, fitness facilities, and event spaces for residents.
DC Ranch's trail system is one of its most distinctive features. Over 50 miles of maintained trails wind through the community and connect directly to the 30,000-acre McDowell Sonoran Preserve — one of the largest urban preserves in the United States. Residents enjoy hiking, mountain biking, and horseback riding with direct access from their neighborhoods, a rarity in the Phoenix Metro area.
For buyers seeking the pinnacle of luxury within DC Ranch, the Silverleaf enclave offers estate homes from $3 million to $20 million or more, anchored by a private Tom Fazio golf course and 24-hour guard-gated security. Silverleaf represents a community within a community — sharing DC Ranch's trail access and proximity while offering an elevated level of exclusivity and amenity.
