Sereno Canyon sits at the northeastern edge of Scottsdale, where the street grid gives out and the McDowell Mountains begin. It is a guard-gated Toll Brothers community laid out against Sonoran Desert terrain rather than flattened into it, and the mountains read as part of the property rather than scenery in the distance.
The center of community life is the Mountain House Lodge, a private clubhouse with a restaurant, heated pool and spa, fitness center, cabanas, bocce court, event lawn and outdoor fireplace. Walking and biking trails run through the community and feed out into the desert beyond it.
For many buyers the preserve is the reason. The Tom's Thumb Trailhead sits minutes away at 23015 N. 128th Street, the northern gateway into Scottsdale's McDowell Sonoran Preserve. The trail to Tom's Thumb climbs roughly 1,112 feet over 2.3 miles to a 3,925-foot summit, finishing at the granite knob visible from most of Scottsdale. The trailhead has restrooms and horse trailer parking but no water, and is open sunrise to sunset.
Golf defines the corridor. Troon North Golf Club's Monument and Pinnacle courses are the area's signature, and the Four Seasons Resort Scottsdale at Troon North anchors the surrounding area with dining and a spa.
The 85255 ZIP code is one of North Scottsdale’s most coveted and diverse luxury corridors. It encompasses major lifestyle destinations including DC Ranch, Silverleaf, Grayhawk, Troon North, Pinnacle Peak, and Sereno Canyon.
