Overview

What Is La Place
Du Sommet?

La Place Du Sommet is an elevated residential enclave in Paradise Valley positioned at some of the highest residential elevations in the town. The name, French for “the place at the summit,” describes both the physical elevation and the caliber of the homes: these are among the most dramatically positioned custom estates in all of metro Phoenix.

The elevated terrain produces panoramic views that are genuinely unmatched in Paradise Valley. Depending on orientation, properties capture sweeping vistas of Camelback Mountain, Mummy Mountain, the Phoenix skyline, city lights at night, Piestewa Peak, the McDowell Mountains, and the Superstition Mountains in the distance. The 360 degree view potential is what distinguishes La Place Du Sommet from lower elevation PV enclaves.

Properties are custom designed to maximize the view corridors created by the elevation. Architectural styles range from contemporary desert modern with floor to ceiling glass to more traditional Southwest designs, but all share the common thread of being oriented outward toward the panorama. These are homes designed to be experienced as much as inhabited.

La Place Du Sommet has extremely low turnover. Owners who secure a position at this elevation rarely leave. When properties do become available, they attract intense interest from ultra high net worth buyers who understand that the combination of elevation, views, and privacy simply cannot be replicated at any price elsewhere in the Valley.

Every home is custom designed to maximize the view corridors created by the elevation. Architectural quality reflects the ultra luxury buyer profile. Floor to ceiling glass, elevated terraces, and open floor plans oriented toward the panorama are defining features.
Extreme Scarcity
Properties in La Place Du Sommet come to market extremely rarely. Long term ownership is the norm. Off market transactions through private agent networks are common and often the only way to access inventory.
