Cabo Del Rey Homes For Sale In Scottsdale
Click Here For Cabo Del Rey Real Estate Listings
Cabo del Rey is one of central Scottsdale’s smallest subdivisions. It’s a group of ten custom homesites (recorded as Cabo del Rey Lots 1 to 10) along East Yucca Street, just east of 96th Street and a few blocks north of Shea Boulevard in ZIP code 85260. Because there are so few homes, a listing here doesn’t come up often, and when one does, buyers are usually weighing it against other large-lot homes in the surrounding Cactus Corridor.
So what sets it apart? Space. Most lots run from roughly three quarters of an acre to just over one acre, which is a lot of room this close to Loop 101, HonorHealth Shea Medical Center and the shops and restaurants along Shea. Plus, the street is quiet and the homes sit well apart. One quick note: Cabo del Rey isn’t the same community as Cabo del Oro or Cabo del Rio, so double-check the subdivision name on any listing you’re looking at.

Cabo Del Rey at a Glance: Cabo Del Rey is a Scottsdale subdivision of custom single-family detached homes built around 1992 on approximately one-acre parcels.
Homes and Architecture
The homes in Cabo del Rey went up between about 1987 and 1992, and each one was custom built. As a result, no two look alike, though you’ll see a common thread of stucco exteriors, concrete tile roofs and single-level floor plans with high or vaulted ceilings.
Here’s what buyers typically find:
- Single-family custom homes, roughly 3,200 to 4,600 square feet based on listing and public records
- Lots from about 0.7 to 1.04 acres, many with room left over for a casita, sport court or RV parking
- Santa Barbara, Tuscan and classic Southwest styling, with formal living and dining rooms, family rooms, wet bars and multiple fireplaces
- Private pools on most lots, three- and four-car garages, and mature citrus and shade trees
- Original builder names aren’t clear in public records
Home values vary a lot depending on how much each home has been updated. As of September 2026, valuation estimates for Cabo del Rey homes sit at roughly $1.7 million to $2.3 million, and fully remodeled homes on the largest lots can reach the higher end of that range or beyond. Keep in mind that resales are rare here, so recent sales on nearby Cactus Corridor streets are often the best pricing guide
Market Overview
With only ten homes, Cabo del Rey doesn’t have enough sales to form its own market trend. That said, the wider 85260 ZIP code gives useful context. According to Redfin, 85260’s median sale price was about $747,000 in August 2026, homes took around 61 days to sell and sellers got about 96.7% of list price. In other words, it’s a balanced market that leans slightly toward sellers.
Large-lot homes near 96th Street trade well above that ZIP median, though. For example, a 1993 home on about a third of an acre a few doors west on Yucca Street sold for $1.7 million in June 2026. Meanwhile, Cabo del Rey lots are two to three times that size. So if you’re shopping here, it pays to watch the whole Cactus Corridor so you’re ready when a Cabo del Rey home finally comes up.
Amenities and Lifestyle
Cabo del Rey doesn’t have shared amenities like a clubhouse or community pool. Instead, the amenities are on your own lot: a private pool, outdoor living space and room to spread out. Then, for everything else, you’re only a short drive from central Scottsdale’s parks and services.
Nearby spots residents use:
- Scottsdale Ranch Park and Tennis Center, with 18 lighted hard courts, racquetball, volleyball and a free desert garden
- Mountain View Park, with a community center, sports fields and playgrounds
- Scottsdale Ranch’s lakes and walking paths just south of Shea Boulevard
- HonorHealth Shea Medical Center, plus grocery stores, restaurants and everyday shopping along Shea Boulevard
- TPC Scottsdale, WestWorld and the Scottsdale Airpark to the north, all within about a 15-minute drive
Because Loop 101 is so close, it’s also easy to get to the McDowell Sonoran Preserve trailheads, Kierland Commons or Old Town when you want to go out.
Schools and Location
Cabo del Rey is in Scottsdale Unified School District. Listing data for homes in the subdivision shows assigned schools as Laguna Elementary School, Mountainside Middle School and Desert Mountain High School. School boundaries can change, so confirm assignments directly with the district before you buy.
Location is a big part of the draw. The subdivision sits between Shea Boulevard and Cactus Road just east of 96th Street, with the Loop 101 Shea interchange roughly a mile and a half to the west. Old Town Scottsdale is typically about 20 minutes away, and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is usually around 25 to 30 minutes by freeway.

Frequently Asked Questions
Where is Cabo del Rey located?
Cabo del Rey is in central Scottsdale's 85260 ZIP code, along East Yucca Street just east of 96th Street, between Shea Boulevard and Cactus Road. It's surrounded by other large-lot homes in the area often called the Cactus Corridor, with Scottsdale Ranch just across Shea to the south and HonorHealth Shea Medical Center about a mile to the west.
What types of homes are available in Cabo del Rey?
Cabo del Rey is made up entirely of single-family custom homes built from about 1987 to 1992. Homes typically run from roughly 3,200 to 4,600 square feet, mostly single level, with Santa Barbara, Tuscan and Southwest styling, tile roofs, pools and three- or four-car garages.
How much do homes in Cabo del Rey typically cost?
Home prices in Cabo del Rey vary considerably depending on lot size, renovations, layout and outdoor amenities. As of September 2026, valuation estimates typically range from approximately $1.7 million to $2.3 million, although a fully remodeled home on one of the largest lots can exceed that. Because only ten homes exist and resales are rare, recent nearby Cactus Corridor sales are also worth reviewing.
Does Cabo del Rey have an HOA?
Yes. Cabo del Rey Homeowners Association is a small, standalone association, and listings describe the fee as covering common grounds maintenance. There's no master association layered on top. Ask for the CC&Rs and current budget during escrow, since small associations can handle repairs and rule changes differently than large managed ones.
Is Cabo del Rey gated?
Cabo del Rey isn't a guard-gated or gate-entry community based on public listing information. Some individual homes have their own gated driveways or RV gates, though.
What amenities does Cabo del Rey offer?
There are no shared amenities like a clubhouse or community pool. Instead, most homes have private pools, covered patios and large yards, and several lots have room for a casita or sport court. Scottsdale Ranch Park, Mountain View Park and the shops along Shea Boulevard are all a short drive away.
What schools serve Cabo del Rey?
Cabo del Rey is in Scottsdale Unified School District. Listing data shows assigned schools as Laguna Elementary School, Mountainside Middle School and Desert Mountain High School. Confirm current boundaries with the district before buying.
How far is Cabo del Rey from Old Town Scottsdale and Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport?
Old Town Scottsdale is about 9 to 10 miles away, or roughly 20 minutes in normal traffic. Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport is about 20 miles away, usually around 25 to 30 minutes via Loop 101 and Loop 202.
What should buyers know before buying a home in Cabo del Rey?
Start with the age of the home. These are late-1980s and early-1990s custom builds, so roof underlayment, HVAC units, plumbing, pool equipment and windows may be original on homes that haven't been updated, and that's a big reason two similar-size homes can be priced hundreds of thousands apart. Next, compare lot size and usable space, since lots range from about 0.7 to just over one acre and some have room for a casita or RV parking while others don't. If you're planning a guest house or major addition, check City of Scottsdale zoning setbacks and the HOA's CC&Rs first. Finally, confirm the subdivision name on the listing, because nearby Cactus Corridor homes on smaller lots are sometimes grouped with Cabo del Rey in online searches.
How can I find homes for sale in Cabo del Rey?
Use the View Listings search on this page to see any active Cabo del Rey homes. Because listings here are rare, The Holm Group can also set up alerts for Cabo del Rey and nearby large-lot Cactus Corridor streets so you hear about new homes right away.
How is Cabo del Rey different from Cabo del Oro or Cabo del Rio?
They're separate subdivisions with similar names. Cabo del Rey is the ten-lot custom-home subdivision on East Yucca Street near 96th Street and Shea in 85260. When a search pulls up Cabo del Oro or Cabo del Rio, check the address and legal description to make sure you're looking at the right community.
How many homes are in Cabo del Rey?
Cabo del Rey was platted as ten lots (recorded as Cabo del Rey Lots 1 to 10). That small size means a quiet street with little through traffic, but it also means you may wait months or longer for a home to come on the market.
