9624 E Skinner Drive, Scottsdale
The Troon corridor in North Scottsdale's 85262 zip code is where serious golf buyers land. Troon proper is one of the Valley's most coveted private communities — gate-guarded, members-only, and built around a course that earns its reputation every year. Troon North extends that legacy into a wider neighborhood anchored by one of Arizona's most respected semi-private facilities. Together they offer a range that covers both the move-up buyer and the buyer who simply wants the best. The McDowell Mountains as a backdrop, Cave Creek and Carefree minutes away, and a real estate market that rewards those who know it.
Two communities, one corridor
Troon
A private, gate-guarded community centered on Troon Country Club — members-only golf, tennis, fitness, and dining. Homes here sit on well-maintained lots with architectural consistency enforced by a strong HOA. The buyer profile leans toward those who want privacy, prestige, and a club lifestyle without compromise.
Troon North
A broader North Scottsdale neighborhood anchored by Troon North Golf Club, home to the Monument and Pinnacle courses — two of the most celebrated layouts in the state. The semi-private model opens access without sacrificing quality. Neighborhoods within Troon North vary in scale and price, giving buyers more entry points into the corridor.
Why buyers choose this corridor
Private golf
Troon Country Club is one of Arizona's elite private clubs. Membership access, a well-conditioned course, and a social environment that matches the caliber of the homes around it.
Semi-private golf
Troon North Golf Club's Monument and Pinnacle courses are consistently ranked among the best public-access layouts in the country. World-class golf without a full equity buy-in.
Scenery
The McDowell Mountains frame nearly every lot in this corridor. Boulder outcroppings, saguaro-studded ridgelines, and wide desert sky — this is what North Scottsdale looks like at its most elemental.
Cave Creek & Carefree
Both towns are minutes away. Independent restaurants, boutique shops, and a high desert character that doesn't feel manufactured. A genuine alternative to the Scottsdale resort corridor.
