The Neighborhood
Tucked into the pines of Flagstaff’s east side, Country Club Estates (known by locals as part of the broader Continental Country Club neighborhood) offers something unique: the feel of a quiet, retreat-like community without sacrificing access to town. Whether you’re sipping coffee on your deck overlooking the golf course or heading down Butler Avenue for errands, it’s a lifestyle that balances serenity and convenience.
A Neighborhood Built for Space, Peace, and Connection
Most homes here were built in the 1980s, with a mix of spacious three- and four-bedroom single-family homes and townhouses. This neighborhood appeals to a variety of lifestyles, including those looking for a full-time residence, a second home, or a peaceful retreat surrounded by natural beauty.
Country Club Estates is designed with drivers in mind. It scores highly for car convenience, with easy highway access and plentiful parking. Ninety-one percent of residents commute by car, reflecting the neighborhood’s reliance on vehicles for daily errands and work commutes. Walkability is limited, with a pedestrian score of 2.4 out of 10, and public transit options are minimal. Cycling is possible for recreation but less practical for commuting due to elevation changes and a less connected bike network.
Why Buyers Love It
Beyond the homes themselves, many buyers are drawn to the neighborhood’s peaceful setting, mature trees, and natural surroundings. The neighborhood offers a strong sense of community and quiet streets, with a quiet score of 9 out of 10. Residents appreciate the ability to enjoy a retreat-like atmosphere while remaining close to golf courses, local restaurants, shopping, and other services.
The area’s location near Aspen Valley Golf Course and Continental Golf Course makes it a popular choice for those who enjoy recreational amenities within walking or short driving distance. Dining options like Canyons & Chefs, Maverik Adventure’s First Stop, and a variety of other restaurants are easily accessible by car.
Who’s Calling This Home?
The community here is home to residents across a broad age range, with a notable share of residents aged 20 to 34 (29 percent), 50 to 64 (19 percent), and 65 to 79 (14 percent). Educational attainment is relatively high, with 34 percent holding a bachelor’s degree and 13 percent holding a postgraduate degree. Income levels are also above Flagstaff’s average, with 37 percent of households earning between $100,000 and $150,000 annually.
Climate and Risk Considerations
Like much of Flagstaff, Country Club Estates faces increasing heat risks, with hot days projected to rise from 7 per year currently to 39 by 2050. Wildfire risk is moderately high, as is typical for forested areas in northern Arizona, while flood risk remains minimal. Buyers are encouraged to work with local professionals to assess risk factors and mitigation options when purchasing a home here.
