Property Description
Inside, nearly every surface has been thoughtfully transformed with a reimagined kitchen and bathrooms, redesigned living spaces with improved flow, updated electrical panel, new water heater, and a 2025 rooftop HVAC system with a nine year prepaid transferable service contract. Full bedroom and bathroom on each level. Long before Arcadia became one of the most sought after neighborhoods in Phoenix, this land was part of a working date palm grove stretching across more than 100 acres along 44th Street. Horse stables, adobe buildings, courtyards, and winding garden pathways once filled the property beneath towering palms and views of Camelback Mountain. In 1978, portions of that original estate were thoughtfully preserved and reimagined into what is now Palma Viva, a quiet collection of homes unlike anything else in the Valley.
Even today, walking through Palma Viva feels different. Meandering paths replace streets. Mature palms create shade and privacy rarely found in Phoenix. The architecture feels collected over time rather than built all at once, creating the kind of character and sense of place people quietly hope to find when searching in Arcadia.
People fall in love with Palma Viva's charm, lush grounds, and sense of escape in the middle of the city.
Within the community itself, Unit 27 quietly stands apart. Palma Viva's only private rooftop deck opens directly from the upstairs suite, framing Camelback Mountain and open Arizona sky beyond the palms. The canal trail, neighborhood restaurants, coffee shops, and local favorites of Arcadia sit just outside the community.
Over the past several years, the home has been thoughtfully reimagined with an emphasis on comfort, livability, and ease of ownership. The interior was redesigned to create a more open and connected feel throughout the main living spaces, while the kitchen and bathrooms were updated with a clean, timeless approach that complements the architecture of the home rather than competing with it. Significant investments were also made into the home's systems and long term functionality, including a 2025 rooftop HVAC system with surge protector and prepaid transferable service contract.
The result is a home that feels both distinctive and comfortable. A place equally suited for quiet mornings above the palms, evenings on the canal, entertaining friends nearby in Arcadia, or simply locking the door and traveling without worry.
Unit 27 at Palma Viva offers something increasingly difficult to find in Phoenix. Character, walkability, thoughtful updates, and a genuine sense of peace.
