5 Beds ⋅ 3 Baths ⋅ 7073709 MLS ⋅ 3,167 SqFt.

Welcome to 4932 S Dassault Way. This beautifully upgraded 2015-built home offers 3,167 square feet, five true bedrooms, three full bathrooms, a separate den, huge upstairs loft, custom pool, and an exceptional location directly across from Radiant Park in the heart of Eastmark. With a full bedroom and full bathroom downstairs, a flexible floor plan, and some of the community's best amenities within walking distance, this is a home designed for the way people actually live. Inside, high-end engineered hardwood flooring makes an immediate impression, running through the main living spaces and continuing beautifully up the staircase. Tall baseboards, custom window casings, spectacular built-ins, and thoughtful upgrades throughout give the home character and warmth. The first-floor den features double French doors, creating a dedicated space for working from home, reading, hobbies, or simply closing the doors when you need a little quiet. At the heart of the home is a gourmet kitchen built for gathering. Crisp white cabinetry, granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, gas cooking, abundant storage, and generous prep space make it equally suited for a quiet Tuesday night or a house full of people. The kitchen opens naturally into the main living areas, creating the kind of space where conversations move from the island to the couch and everyone still feels connected. And this floor plan gives you options. A full bedroom and full bathroom downstairs creates a fantastic setup for overnight guests, extended family, or multigenerational living. Upstairs, the huge loft becomes an entirely separate living space with room for movie nights, games, a second family room, or whatever life calls for next. The massive primary suite provides a retreat at the end of the day, complete with an impressive custom walk-in shower and plenty of room to truly unwind. Then there is the backyard. A beautiful custom pool with Baja shelf anchors an outdoor space made for Arizona living. Spend summer afternoons in the water, relax under the covered patio, have friends over for dinner, or enjoy a quiet evening outside after the day is done. Artificial turf provides plenty of usable space around the pool while keeping maintenance remarkably simple. With turf in both the front and backyard, you get the outdoor space without spending every weekend maintaining it. The location makes this home even harder to duplicate. There are no neighbors directly across the street. Instead, your front door opens toward Radiant Park. Mature trees, green grass, a playground, fire pit, tables, and gathering spaces create an incredible extension of home right across the street. And beyond Radiant Park is everything that makes Eastmark such a fun place to call home. Schools and many of the community's signature amenities are within walking distance, including the community center, lake, splash pad, swimming pool, parks, Steadfast Coffee, Steadfast Diner, Mesa Gateway Public Library, Eastmark Skate Park, and neighborhood gathering spaces. Grab a coffee in the morning, walk to the park in the afternoon, head to the pool, or take an evening walk around the lake. You don't always have to get in the car to enjoy where you live. When you do, SR-24 and Loop 202 are just minutes away, providing easy access throughout the Valley. Mesa Gateway Airport, golf, shopping, dining, and the incredible amount of new development continuing to arrive throughout this part of the southeast Valley are all close by. It feels like there is always something new opening nearby, while Eastmark itself already offers the parks, amenities, events, and sense of community that have made it such a destination. And with brand-new exterior paint, high-end engineered hardwood flooring, new flooring throughout, and a home built in 2015, so much of what buyers want has already been brought together here. Five bedrooms. Three full bathrooms. Den. Huge loft. Downstairs bedroom and full bath. Custom pool. Radiant Park across the street. The heart of Eastmark within walking distance. This is more than a great house. It's a place you're going to be excited to come home to.

$600,000

3 Beds ⋅ 2 Baths ⋅ 7073430 MLS ⋅ 1,819 SqFt.

This beautifully appointed Manhattan model offers a warm, sophisticated interior, The heart of the home is the kitchen, featuring Antique White cabinetry, light toned granite countertops, and an oversized island with space for gathering. A charming nook just off the kitchen is currently used as a baking area. The third bedroom can easily function as an office. Antique White cabinetry and coordinating granite countertops continue into the bathrooms, creating an elegant look throughout. Outside, the yard backs to green space and features a covered patio, separate pergola with a gas fire feature, fruit trees, and synthetic turf-an inviting setting to enjoy Arizona living year-round. The garage has a 2 ft. ext. and the Great Rm. has a 2 ft. ext. that is not reflected in the overall sq. ft. This home sits on a lot that backs to HOA-maintained green space, so there are no neighbors behind you. That single fact delivers what most homes in the community cannot: open views and exceptional privacy. OUTDOOR LIVING Designed for entertaining and for quiet mornings alike, the backyard features an extended paver patio, a covered seating area with a built-in mister system and a raised pergola built around a gas fire feature that anchors the space on cool desert evenings. Mature orange, lime, and lemon trees are producing, established rose bushes bring color, and a dedicated garden area is ready for herbs, vegetables, or whatever you want to plant next. Synthetic turf covers the rest, keeping the yard green and the upkeep minimal. KITCHEN The kitchen is where this home truly shines. Antique White cabinetry pairs with coordinating cream-toned granite and a custom tile backsplash, while under and over cabinet lighting adds warmth and highlights the finishes after dark. The island is the centerpiece, oversized and oriented to open up generous prep space with room for guests to gather, and noticeably larger than what you typically find in this model. Just off the kitchen, a nook that comes blank in the standard Manhattan plan has been finished with custom built-in cabinetry and display shelving, matched to the kitchen so precisely that the two spaces read as one. It is currently used as a dedicated baking station and would work just as well as a coffee bar, bar area, or display space for collections. PRIMARY SUITE The primary suite continues the Antique White cabinetry and coordinating granite, keeping the finishes consistent from one end of the home to the other. Dual sinks give two people room to get ready at once, and a walk-in closet opens directly off the bathroom. A private water closet houses a Kohler toilet with a built-in warm-water bidet and dryer, a comfort upgrade you rarely find in a resale. BEDROOMS AND FLEXIBLE SPACE The third bedroom offers true flexibility and converts easily into an office, hobby room, dining room, or lounge to suit your lifestyle. The guest bedroom includes its own walk-in closet for added storage. The second bath repeats the Antique White cabinetry and granite pairing found throughout the home. FRONT PORCH The covered front porch is a genuine second seating area, not just an entry. An arched brick facade and paver decking give it presence from the street, and there is room to put out chairs and actually use it, whether that means morning coffee, a glass of wine at sunset, greeting neighbors as they pass, or having a front-row seat for the holiday golf cart parade. In a community where people are out and about, a porch you can sit on is worth more than one you only walk through. LIFE AT ENCORE Life at Encore means resort-style amenities every day of the week: pickleball courts for every skill level, tennis, bocce ball, a breakfast and lunch cafe, billiard room, craft and art studio,newly remodeled fitness center, movement room, media room, community library, ping-pong, and card and game rooms. Stay active with men's and women's golf groups playing at discounted local rates, or cheer on Encore's competitive men's softball team. A brand-new heated pool and spa open this October. Miles of private, paved, lighted, HOA-maintained walking trails let you explore the neighborhood without ever leaving home. What sets Encore apart is that the calendar is always full. A full-time lifestyle director keeps something on it every week, from tribute concerts and bourbon and tequila tasting dinners to line dancing, pizza and dance nights, and holiday golf cart parades where residents decorate their carts and put on a show for the neighborhood. Thursday happy hour brings discounted cocktails and wine plus a different food truck each week. THE EASTMARK COMMUNITY As an Encore resident, you also enjoy the broader Eastmark community: duck and turtle ponds, fishing ponds, several dog parks, and an outdoor amphitheater hosting First Friday concerts and food trucks. Saturdays bring the Eastmark Farmers Market, with fresh produce from Steadfast Farm, an organic working farm right in the community park. Steadfast Farm is a destination in its own right, with a farm-to-table restaurant, a small organic market, and a coffee stand serving specialty drinks and breakfast tacos. Just outside Encore sits Gateway Library, named the world's best new public library at the 2026 IFLA Public Library of the Year Awards and a two-time winner of the IIDA/ALA Library Interior Design Award. Its soaring wood ceilings and open, market-inspired design make it worth visiting even if you never check out a book. A new Sprouts Market is now open less than a five-minute drive from Encore.

Homes for Sale in Mesa AZ

Mesa, Arizona is the third-largest city in Arizona and one of the most diverse real estate markets in the greater Phoenix area. From the resort-style master-planned communities of east Mesa to the established neighborhoods near downtown, Mesa offers buyers an enormous range of price points, lifestyles, and community types. Whether you're a first-time buyer, a growing family, or a move-up buyer looking for more, Mesa likely has what you need. Browse current listings or call Megan & Jason Williams at 480-618-1890 to get started.

Is Mesa AZ a Good Place to Live?

Yes — Mesa is one of the most livable large cities in Arizona. Its size means incredible variety: you can find everything from urban walkability near downtown Mesa and the Mesa Arts Center to wide suburban subdivisions in the east and quiet established neighborhoods with mature landscaping throughout. Mesa regularly ranks among Arizona's top cities for quality of life, safety in its eastern zones, and access to amenities.

The city has invested significantly in its downtown revitalization, making it an increasingly attractive urban core. At the same time, the eastern portions of Mesa — particularly near 85212 and Eastmark — continue to attract strong buyer interest with newer construction and master-planned amenities. There's genuinely something for everyone here.

Cost of Living in Mesa AZ

Mesa's cost of living is close to the national average, with housing costs as the primary variable. Home prices in Mesa span a wide range — from the low $300s for older resale homes in more established neighborhoods to $700,000 and above in premium communities like Las Sendas or newer east Mesa construction.

The most active buyer range across the city is currently $350,000–$550,000, where buyers can find well-maintained homes in family-friendly neighborhoods with solid school access. Arizona's low property tax rates help keep monthly ownership costs reasonable. Utilities and everyday expenses are in line with the broader metro.

For current prices, inventory and how fast homes are selling, see our Mesa AZ housing market report.

Community and Lifestyle in Mesa

Mesa's lifestyle varies significantly by area. Near downtown, the Mesa Arts Center anchors a growing cultural district with galleries, performances, dining, and the Arizona Museum of Natural History. The Sloan Park area brings Cubs spring training energy to Mesa each February and March, with a calendar of events that energizes the community.

In the eastern neighborhoods, the lifestyle is more suburban and family-focused — community pools, parks, youth sports leagues, and neighborhood events define the day-to-day. Eastmark and the surrounding east Mesa area have created a vibrant newer community with its own town center, parks, and social programming. For outdoor enthusiasts, the Usery Mountain Regional Park and the proximity to the Superstition Mountains offer world-class hiking and recreation minutes from many Mesa addresses.

Schools and Education in Mesa

Mesa is primarily served by the Mesa Unified School District (MUSD), one of the largest school districts in Arizona. MUSD operates over 80 schools and serves a diverse student population with a wide range of academic programs, including magnet schools, IB programs, and career-technical education pathways.

School quality varies within MUSD depending on the specific campus and neighborhood. Eastern Mesa schools — particularly those near Eastmark and the 85212 zip code — tend to receive strong ratings. Gilbert Unified School District serves portions of far east Mesa near the Gilbert boundary, and those schools are consistently among the highest-rated in Arizona. For buyers where school quality is a top priority, we can help you identify specific streets and parcels that fall within the best-performing attendance zones.

Healthcare Access in Mesa

Mesa has excellent healthcare infrastructure. Banner Desert Medical Center is one of the largest hospitals in the state, offering a full range of services including a nationally recognized children's hospital. Banner Gateway Medical Center in east Mesa is a newer facility with strong reviews and convenient access for east Mesa residents.

Mountain Vista Medical Center, Dignity Health Mercy Gilbert, and several urgent care and specialty clinic networks round out a comprehensive healthcare landscape for residents. No matter where in Mesa you live, quality care is close by.

Job Market and Commute in Mesa

Mesa has a strong and diverse local economy. Major employers include Banner Health, Boeing, United Airlines (which operates a major training center near Mesa Gateway Airport), Apple's data center campus, and a growing cluster of aerospace and advanced manufacturing companies in the Gateway Airport area. The city's strategic investment in the Gateway economic zone has paid off significantly.

For commuters heading north to Scottsdale, downtown Phoenix, or Tempe, the US-60 and SR-202 freeways provide solid access, though peak-hour traffic can be significant. The east-west size of Mesa means commute times vary considerably by neighborhood — east Mesa residents generally face longer drives to central employment hubs but benefit from lower housing costs and newer construction. The light rail system connects western Mesa through Tempe to downtown Phoenix, providing a useful transit option for some workers.

Safety and Crime in Mesa

Like any large city, Mesa's safety profile varies considerably by neighborhood. Eastern Mesa — particularly the 85207, 85209, and 85212 zip codes — consistently reports among the lowest crime rates in the entire Phoenix metro. These newer, more affluent eastern neighborhoods benefit from strong community engagement and proactive policing.

Central and western Mesa have seen more varied crime patterns, and buyers focused on safety should pay careful attention to specific streets and neighborhoods rather than relying on citywide statistics. We help our buyers do the research needed to make informed decisions about safety in any neighborhood they're considering.

Things to Do in Mesa

Mesa punches well above its weight for a suburban city when it comes to entertainment, culture, and recreation. The Mesa Arts Center is one of the premier performing arts venues in Arizona, hosting national touring productions, concerts, and local arts programming year-round. The Arizona Museum of Natural History and the i.d.e.a. Museum are beloved family destinations.

Sloan Park brings Chicago Cubs spring training to Mesa, and the surrounding stadium district is a growing entertainment hub. Usery Mountain Regional Park offers 3,600+ acres of Sonoran Desert hiking and biking. The nearby Superstition Mountains anchor some of the most scenic outdoor recreation in the Phoenix metro. And for everyday entertainment, downtown Mesa's revitalized restaurant and bar scene has become a genuine destination.

Why People Are Moving to Mesa

Mesa draws buyers for different reasons depending on where they're looking. East Mesa draws families who want newer construction, good schools, and access to the outdoor lifestyle near the Superstitions — at prices that are often meaningfully lower than equivalent homes in Chandler or Gilbert. The Eastmark community, in particular, has attracted a significant wave of buyers seeking master-planned living with a true sense of community.

Out-of-state relocators find Mesa's size reassuring — it has the full range of services, healthcare, and amenities of a major city without the premium of Scottsdale or certain Chandler zip codes. Tech workers coming to the Phoenix metro for Boeing, Apple, or the Gateway aerospace corridor often land in Mesa specifically. And for buyers who prioritize character and culture, downtown Mesa's arts scene and historic neighborhoods offer something genuinely different from the broader suburban landscape.

Best Neighborhoods in Mesa

Mesa's best neighborhoods vary significantly by lifestyle and price point. Here are the areas we work with most frequently:

Eastmark — One of the most ambitious master-planned communities in Arizona, Eastmark is a city within a city in far east Mesa. It features a town center, parks, community pools, and a strong social programming calendar. Highly popular with families and remote workers drawn by the amenities and community feel.
Las Sendas — A premium gated community in northeast Mesa offering stunning mountain views, golf, and resort-style amenities. One of the most sought-after addresses in the city for buyers seeking a premium lifestyle.
Red Mountain Ranch — An established master-planned community in northeast Mesa centered on a golf course, with mature landscaping, larger lots, and a loyal resident base.
Val Vista Lakes — A distinctive central Mesa community built around a network of private lakes. Residents enjoy waterfront living, paddleboating, and a resort-style clubhouse at a price point typically below comparable communities in Chandler or Gilbert.

Retirement and Downsizing in Mesa

Mesa has a long history as a retirement destination, and that remains true today. The city has an enormous inventory of single-story homes, patio home communities, and active adult developments spread across its many neighborhoods. The combination of year-round sunshine, excellent healthcare (Banner Desert, Banner Gateway), and affordable pricing relative to coastal cities makes Mesa a perennial top choice for retirees.

Val Vista Lakes and various central Mesa patio home communities are particularly popular with downsizing buyers who want a low-maintenance lifestyle with community amenities. The light rail system also provides a convenient, car-optional transportation option for residents who prefer not to drive for every errand.
