Alta Mesa - Tracy Rutledge, REALTOR®

Alta Mesa is a master planned community located in the city of Mesa at the East Valley region of the Phoenix metropolitan area. On this map layout, it is shown bordered north by McKellips Road, east by Recker Road, south by Ellis Street, and west by Higley Road.

The most dominant feature of this community is the 18-hole championship golf course of the Alta Mesa Golf Club. The club’s links were built in 1985 and now count among the top golf courses in East Valley.

Many of the residences in Alta Mesa back up to the club’s meandering course. These homes are thus prized for their views of the well-manicured greens and fairways in the gently rolling 160-acre layout that extends to 7,093 yards.

There are several neighborhoods within the Alta Mesa community offering home choices ranging from detached single family homes to condos and townhouses. These subdivisions include Crosspoint, Mission Squares, Alta Mesa Estates, and Stone Canyon. A gated resort village and its condo rentals are also located in the Alta Mesa master development.

The residences of Alta Mesa are typically builds in the 1980s and 1990s. Most of these homes have since undergone major updates including makeovers of their kitchens and bathrooms.

Amenities: Membership to their neighboring golf club is optional for the residents of Alta Mesa. Those who opt for a club membership gain access not only to the golf course but also to various facilities. These include the AMGC Grill, a restaurant overlooking the club’s scenic golf course.

Several amenities are available to all Alta Mesa residents. One is the community-maintained swimming pool; there are numerous parks and greenbelts nearby for the residents to enjoy as well. Meticulously maintained common areas and well-kept streets too are additional perks to living in this community.

Alta Mesa is likewise conveniently located to shopping and dining venues. Many choices on retail shops and restaurants, for instance, are available at the Alta Mesa Plaza on the corner of Higley and Brown Roads. Options on other commercial establishments and service providers are as easily accessible in The Shoppes at Legacy House on McKellips Road.

Two top-rated local schools—Mendoza Elementary and Shepherd Junior High School—are located right within the Alta Mesa community. Freeways are nearby as well to facilitate fast and convenient transit to other points of interest in East Valley including the offices of major local employers like Boeing and MD Helicopters plus the Falcon Field Airport.
