I was at an inspection yesterday afternoon at one of my recent sales and I was so impressed with views and solitude of this community in North Scottsdale, Terravita Country Club. 823 acres amid signature saguaros and lava rock, flowering cacti line the gently winding roads that lead to 23 Terravita neighborhoods.

Here are some of the highlights of the Country Club.
