Northern Arizona

Welcome to Northern Arizona

Northern Arizona offers a refreshing contrast to the desert landscapes of the Valley, making it a highly desirable region for both second homes and primary residences. From the mountain town of Flagstaff home to Northern Arizona University and surrounded by ponderosa pine forests—to the historic charm of Prescott with its vibrant downtown and cooler year-round temperatures, this region is a haven for those seeking outdoor adventure and a slower pace of life. Communities like Munds Park, just south of Flagstaff, are popular for seasonal retreats, especially among Valley residents escaping the summer heat. Payson, known as "The Heart of Arizona," offers easy access to hiking, fishing, and forested escapes, while Pinetop-Lakeside in the White Mountains is a favorite for its alpine beauty and proximity to skiing at Sunrise Park Resort. Northern Arizona's natural beauty, four distinct seasons, and abundance of recreational activities—from hiking and mountain biking to kayaking and skiing—make it a top choice for nature lovers and those craving cooler weather. The Gillette Group is proud to serve clients all over Arizona, including these sought-after Northern destinations, offering expert guidance whether you’re searching for a peaceful mountain getaway or a forever home surrounded by nature.
