Sedona Real Estate Areas

Like all growing communities, Sedona has been naturally divided into three different regions: The Village of Oak Creek; Uptown Sedona; West Sedona. Each of these areas boasts its own contributions to the Greater Sedona community with an abundance of art galleries, local artisans, ongoing cultural activities and majestic views from every angle.

The Village of Oak Creek

One of the first things to notice about this area of Sedona is the vibrant red rock formation of Bell Rock with its powerful energy vortex. It is also the area where you will discover the Chapel of the Holy Cross. Designed by a student of Frank Lloyd Wright, it is one of the non denominational chapels in the area.

This village is part of the southern tip of Greater Sedona and is filled with plenty of examples of fine local arts and crafts. Many of the treasures found in the galleries and shops are found in the famous Tlaquepaque Mall which was designed after an authentic Mexican Village and is an experience all of its own. Premier golf courses, dining and accommodations are also available.

Uptown Sedona

North of the village of Oak Creek, along highway 89-A , you'll find uptown Sedona. This is the home to the Sedona Arts Center a non-profit organization formed in 1958 by Nassan Gobran and a group of visionaries who felt the artistic climate of Sedona Arizona needed a place where artists could work and teach together in a spirit of community cooperation, involvement, and participation. Also not to be missed is the Sedona Heritage Museum and one of the original farmsteads of the area.

The major retail plaza, found right along the highway is full of local shops of all varieties, all within easy walking distance of the many first rate bed & breakfast and hotel accommodations.

West Sedona

As the name implies, this area of Sedona lies to the west of the Junction between highway 179 and 89-A. This area has experienced plenty of recent growth, including a new Cultural Park and Visitor Center in 2000. It is here in the Cultural Park that the annual Jazz on the Rocks concert is held, an annual fundraiser held in support of local music and education. The open amphitheatre style of the venue allows for a northern backdrop of famous Chimney Rock and Coffee Pot Rock.

West Sedona is also home to the Sedona airport where flights touring the canyon in Biplanes can be booked for a unique bird's eye view of the region. From a visitor's perspective, West Sedona offers ample first class accommodation as well as fine dining and shopping experiences.
