Scottsdale accounted for four of this week’s five highest-priced home sales reported across the Phoenix, Arizona metro area for the week ending September 6, 2026, with Paradise Valley holding the fifth. At the top was a 2018-built house on East Montecito Avenue, remodeled in the classic Arcadia style, that sold for $7.50 million on September 2.
The five sales combined for $28.80 million and span Camelback East, Paradise Valley Estates, Mirabel Club, White Horse and Carefree Ranch Homesteads β a stretch of the metro that runs from an in-town remodel to a renovated golf-course residence and a 24.5-acre guard-gated mountaintop estate.
No. 1 — $7,500,000 · 6235 E Montecito Avenue, Scottsdale, Arizona
A five-bedroom home at 6235 E. Montecito Avenue in Scottsdale closed on September 2, 2026, for $7.50 million, ranking No. 1 in RealtyWire’s Phoenix Metro Area Top 5 for the week. Built in 2018 with six baths and a reported 6,149 square feet, the property previously changed hands for $7,200,000 in 2023.
The house was fully remodeled to blend classic Arcadia styling with modern touches. A chef’s kitchen is backed by a second prep kitchen, the great room anchors the main entertaining space, and floor-to-ceiling millwork, custom cabinetry, dramatic lighting, retractable doors and stone and tile work carry through the interior. A guest house with its own separate garage stands apart from the main residence.
Outside, a mature ficus hedge encloses the grounds for privacy, and the outdoor living areas look onto Camelback Mountain. The $7.50 million closing put Christopher V Karas of Compass on the listing side of the metro’s highest-priced reported sale of the week.

In Paradise Valley, a 1.6-acre hillside property at 6900 N. Mummy Mountain Road in Paradise Valley Estates sold for $5,995,000, the week’s No. 2 transaction, with the sale recorded August 31, 2026. The property carries an existing 1971 residence with five bedrooms, five baths and reported square footage of 5,187, along with a tennis court.

Conceptual plans for a 9,200-square-foot single-level residence β with no interior steps, an 80-foot pool on the same level, parking for 10 cars and a wellness center β have already completed an initial hillside committee review.

The renovation reached the kitchens in both the main house and the casita, the primary bathroom, and the casita/media-room and pool bathrooms, and added new wood flooring throughout, a new front door, a new driveway and a roof installed in 2020. Multiple covered outdoor living areas and a pool face the sunsets and city lights below, and the sale placed Patrick Rice of Russ Lyon Sotheby’s International Realty on the listing side of one of the metro’s five highest-priced reported closings of the week.

A single-level soft contemporary at 8898 E. Via Montoya, in North Scottsdale’s gated White Horse community, sold for $5,000,000 and went under contract the same day the current listing went live.

The home is organized around the indoor-outdoor living Scottsdale is known for. An interior courtyard holds a pool and spa, and three sets of fully retractable sliding doors connect the main living and entertaining spaces to the courtyard and the backyard, where an expansive covered dining area, two fireplaces, a fire pit and a covered seating area with a television fill out the grounds.
The same-day contract and the $5,000,000 closing gave Christy Dean and Polly S Wintergalen of RETSY the listing side of the No. 4 sale in RealtyWire’s Phoenix Metro Area Top 5 for the week.
