Candlewood Estates:
The Gate Inside Troon North.
North Scottsdale, Arizona · 85262 · Troon North
Candlewood Estates is a guard-gated community set inside Troon North, in North Scottsdale's 85262 high desert. It offers what buyers reach Troon North for — the Monument and Pinnacle golf, the boulder landscape, the mountain views — with a second layer of privacy behind its own staffed gate, at an average price point near $2.7 million.

Overview
What Is Candlewood Estates?
Candlewood Estates is a guard-gated enclave located within Troon North, the master-planned golf community in North Scottsdale's 85262 zip code. Properties here sit inside Troon North's high-desert landscape of granite boulders and saguaro, with the added privacy of the enclave's own gated entry.
The distinction is worth understanding: buyers shopping Troon North broadly encounter a wide market — condominiums through custom estates. Candlewood Estates occupies the upper, gated end of it, with an average price around $2.7 million and a correspondingly smaller, more private inventory.
Real Estate
What Buyers Need to Know.
Candlewood Estates trades at the estate tier of the Troon North market. Listings emphasize privacy, expansive lots, and mountain views — the assets the guard gate and the high-desert position deliver together. Inventory is limited by the enclave's size, which makes timing and access matter more than in the broader community.
Lifestyle
Why People Choose Candlewood Estates.
Candlewood Estates buyers want Troon North's setting and golf with a level of privacy the broader community does not provide — a quiet street behind a staffed gate, with the desert and the mountains beyond it.
