Camelot Homes Breaks Ground at Villas II Luxury Golf Community

 
SCOTTSDALE, AZ (September 9, 2025) – On Tuesday, September 9, Camelot Homes broke ground at Villas II, the second phase of its premier 23-home lock-and-leave community of single-family detached residences within the prestigious, critically acclaimed Seven Desert Mountain golf community. The Camelot team was joined by Mayor Lisa Borowsky and representatives from Desert Mountain Club and the Scottsdale Chamber of Commerce as they turned the ceremonial shovels of dirt to kick off construction of the new luxury community.
 
In 1986, developer Lyle Anderson partnered with Frank Lloyd Wright’s Taliesin Associated Architects to develop 8,300 acres into what is known today as one of the nation’s most prestigious master-planned communities – Desert Mountain. Seven Desert Mountain, the luxury golf community within Desert Mountain, officially broke ground in 2018, and in 2019, No. 7 at Desert Mountain became the first new golf course to be built at Desert Mountain in nearly two decades, joining six Championship Jack Nicklaus Signature Courses.
 
“At Villas II, every homesite backs No. 7 at Desert Mountain, the USGA-rated championship par-54, 18-hole golf course that serves as the focal point of the community,” said Julie Hancock, Managing Director and Co-owner of Camelot Homes.
 
Villas II brings back two award-winning floor plans from the sold-out first phase of Camelot’s Villas community, designed by award-winning architect Robert Hidey Architects. Each plan includes 2 to 4 bedrooms, 3.5 to 4.5 bathrooms, and 2,768 to 3,305 square feet. Homeowners may choose from three types of membership at the world-renowned private Desert Mountain Club (subject to membership approval). Depending on the membership type, benefits include access to the newly renovated Sonoran Spa and Fitness Center, a tennis complex, 25 miles of private hiking and biking trails, six Jack Nicklaus Signature championship par-72 golf courses, the championship par-54 course at Seven Desert Mountain, and 10 distinctive restaurants and grills.
 
"With homes set against the rolling green hills of the golf course, plus world-class amenities and easy access to recreational opportunities at nearby Tonto National Forest and Bartlett Lake, Villas II represents a rare opportunity—and the last chance to own a new home at Seven Desert Mountain.”
