The central spine of Paradise Valley: large parcels, active rebuilds, and recent sales along Casa Blanca and Lincoln Drive.
Casa Blanca and Lincoln Drive Corridor (Updated Q4 2026)
By Clayton Wolfe, Partner at The Agency · Published November 2, 2026 · Last updated November 2, 2026
I'm Clayton Wolfe, Partner at The Agency in Scottsdale. The Casa Blanca and Lincoln Drive corridor is the central spine of Paradise Valley, and it carries some of the town's steadiest high-end activity.
This is a corridor, not a single platted enclave, so it blends large flat parcels, a few hillside lots near the mountain bases, and older homes on prime central land. Recent closes have run from about $9.5 million to $20.9 million.
Because it runs through the middle of town, the corridor mixes several submarkets. A Casa Blanca Drive acre and a Lincoln Drive frontage parcel are different assets.
What the corridor offers is central location and large central parcels, the kind builders and end buyers both chase. For the annual carrying cost of a Paradise Valley home, see what it costs to own.

Central location, large central parcels. The corridor runs along Lincoln Drive and Casa Blanca Drive through the middle of town. Its prize is the combination of central access and parcels large enough for scale, the kind builders and end buyers both chase.
It is a corridor, not one plat. Direct Lincoln Drive frontage trades differently from an interior Casa Blanca lot behind it. Parcels run from about one acre to over three, including a recent 3.19-acre holding. Read each by frontage type and depth.
Mostly flat, with mountain-edge exceptions. Most corridor parcels sit outside the Hillside Development Area, so standard limits apply: 24 feet from natural grade, a 40-foot overall cap, and a 25 percent floor-area ceiling. Lots near the Camelback or Mummy bases can trigger Article XXII review, so check each one.
Few HOAs. Most of the corridor answers to the Town rather than an association, though a few platted tracts carry covenants. Confirm each parcel rather than assuming.
Active rebuilds. The corridor sees steady rebuild activity. Builders working it recently include Creativ Design Build and Travis Custom Homes. Active building supports land values and gives buyers finished comparables to price against.
For a seller, this is why a pre-listing inspection pays for itself in this market. I covered that in pre-listing inspections for Paradise Valley luxury homes. For a one-of-a-kind property, see how I price homes with no comps.
Short answers to the questions I hear most. Each one is covered in more depth above.
It is a corridor, not a single platted enclave. It runs along Lincoln Drive and Casa Blanca Drive through the center of town and blends several submarkets.
From about one acre to over three. A recent sale included a 3.19-acre parcel. Direct Lincoln Drive frontage and interior Casa Blanca lots trade differently, so read each by frontage type and depth.
On the flat interior, usually not. Parcels near the Camelback or Mummy bases can trigger Hillside Development Area review under Article XXII, so check each one before you plan.
Recent closes ran about $9.5 million to $20.9 million across new builds and older homes on large central land. See the recent recorded sales table above.
Central location plus large central parcels, a combination that works for both builders and end buyers. Few parts of town pair that much land with that much access.
