The Arizona Canal Trail runs along the neighborhood’s southern edge, providing the perfect place for a bike ride or morning jog. This community is also home to David and Gladys Wright House, the last residential masterpiece by Frank Lloyd Wright and a must-see for architecture buffs. In terms of property for sale in Arcadia, options run the gamut from ultra-luxe dwellings to simple ranch-style homes on tidy lots.
