The La Cuesta Neighborhood in Gainey Ranch | Scottsdale, AZ
The neighborhood of La Cuesta is ideally located between Shea Boulevard and Mountain View Road, with some properties bordering the Gainey Ranch golf course. Located just minutes from the 101 Pima Freeway, residents enjoy shorter commute times with few traffic issues on surface streets getting to and from the freeway.

The houses in La Cuesta are considered mid-sized for the area and very family-focused. Three or four bedrooms and two or three bathrooms were the typical features in these homes built in 1979 and 1980. However, at the age of forty-plus, many homes have undergone significant renovations and upgrades to their original 3,000 or so square feet. Home office space, a home gym, and home theaters are all common features to discover in the more recently remodeled houses in La Cuesta.
The average house in the community holds its value at just over a million dollars. However, there are rare finds with a price near $900,000. These houses represent an excellent opportunity for a buyer willing to invest time and money to create a modern home that will provide added function and instant equity, making them a great return on the initial investment. Adding to the value of each house are the Scottsdale Unified Schools serving the community, including Cochise Elementary, Cocopah Middle School, and Chaparral High School.
