This north- and west-facing residence features an open-plan kitchen with a peninsula and seating, a great room connected to a dedicated dining area, ample storage and a walk-in closet in the primary suite, a utility room with washer and dryer, and two included parking spaces. Designed for comfort and serenity, this corner home embraces and frames the beauty of Optima®’s signature landscaping with natural light throughout.
Featured Residence: -16 — Panoramic Camelback Views & City Lights
Starting from $1.06M, the -16 residence showcases ~1,470 sq. ft. of thoughtfully designed living with a south-facing orientation that adds natural light and offers sweeping Camelback Mountain and sparkling city-light views. Featuring 2 bedrooms, 2 bathrooms, an ~83 sq. ft. terrace, and a great room with full-height windows, this residence blends indoor-outdoor living effortlessly. The primary suite includes a soaking tub, walk-in shower, and walk-in closet, while the split layout maximizes privacy. A spacious utility room with a washer and dryer completes this elevated desert retreat.
At Optima® 7230, residents enjoy access to an unparalleled suite of amenities designed to enrich everyday life—where wellness, recreation, comfort, and community come together in seamless balance. A world-class lineup of amenities includes a fitness center, indoor basketball court, Pilates studio, movie theater, party room with full kitchen, pet park and spa, two outdoor pickleball courts, and lush outdoor relaxation areas that connect to the greater Scottsdale region. A 14-foot-wide bicycle and pedestrian trail, approximately 3,150 feet long, will encircle the community and connect directly to retail along Scottsdale Road—further integrating into Scottsdale’s 200+ miles of existing bike lanes in the Master Bicycle Plan. “The goal is to be the catalyst for a ‘mini-Amsterdam,’ where people can ride their bikes across the North Airpark subregion,” says David Hovey Jr., President, COO and Principal Architect of Optima®.
The location of Optima McDowell Mountain™ places residents at the center of the North Scottsdale growth corridor, moments from the 101 Loop and surrounded by a rapidly evolving hub of innovation and expansion. “We were lucky that right after we went under contract, Mayo Clinic announced their expansion, Banner Health and HonorHealth started bidding on land, and Axon located nearby too,” says Hovey Jr. “It’ll be a totally different landscape here five years from now.” With ~36,000 square feet of future retail at full build-out, residents will be able to enjoy a walkable lifestyle that blends convenience, fitness, recreation, and connection to nature.
For those seeking to customize their dream home, Optima® 7230’s residences offer 12 curated finish packages with the flexibility to mix, match, and personalize every element—or select custom finishes for a fully bespoke interior. This early-purchase window gives buyers unmatched creative freedom, allowing them to shape a home that’s truly their own. Whether drawn by the architecture, the thoughtful landscaping, or the all-inclusive lifestyle amenities, early owners at Optima® 7230 will experience desert living through a modern, elevated lens.
