Neighborhood Spotlight #1: Agritopia


Today we're visiting one of my favorite neighborhoods, Agritopia. Located on Ray Road between Greenfield and Higley, Agritopia was built on the Johnston Family's Farm. It boasts over 300 homes, The Coffee Shop, a self serve farmers market, a Christian School, and Joe's Farm Grill (which was featured on HGTV's Diners, Drive-Ins, & Dives). The community website describes as "an effort to design and build a neighborly community around an urban farm. The project is under construction and is being built in the Town of Gilbert on a farm owned by the Johnston family. Driven by principle rather than economics alone, the project attempts to solve several problems common in current development neighborhoods lacking character and livability and the complete elimination of Arizona's agricultural heritage. "

There are two different series of homes in the community, the Classic Series (which are larger homes with 6 different floor plans) and the Cottage Series (smaller homes with 5 different floor plans). Each floor plan has approximately 4 elevations, which ensures a diverse but cohesive looking neighborhood. Built by Scott Communities, Agritopia's architecture has both a quaint charm and a modern aesthetic. It would be the perfect place to call home.

There are currently homes for 19 sale in Agritopia. This is one of my favorites:

2689 E TAMARISK ST Gilbert, AZ 85296 is listed at $364,900. It is 3,688 square feet and has 3 bedrooms and 2 baths.

Visit the community website for more information on what Agritopia has to offer. And if you would like a list of all the homes for sale in this neighborhood, send me an email at rosemarywatsonrealestate@gmail.com!
