5643 E Rancho Tierra Drive: A Cave Creek Estate With a 30x40 RV Garage and No HOA

You can pull a full size Airstream through the back gate of this property, drive it across the lot, and park it inside a 30 by 40 garage with power. Then you can walk into a remodeled kitchen and cook on a real natural gas cooktop, out here, on a county island in Cave Creek. Neither of those things is supposed to be possible on the same property. That is the story of 5643 E Rancho Tierra Drive.

The RV garage nobody was talking about

There is a 30 by 40 outbuilding on this lot, wired with electric, with clearance tall enough to swallow a full size RV. Not a workshop. Not a shed. A true RV garage.

Pair that with a drive through lot, an automatic front gate, and a second automatic gate at the rear that opens to Montgomery Road, and you get something a certain buyer has been hunting for since the day they bought the boat. You drive in one side, you drive out the other, and you never back a trailer into anything.

1.2 acres on a Cave Creek county island

This is a county island property, which means no HOA. Nobody tells you where the RV parks, what color the front door is, or how long the boat sits in the driveway. On 1.2 acres with north and south exposure, you also get real separation from your neighbors, which is getting harder to find at this price point as the area fills in.

The natural gas detail most buyers do not expect

Here is the part that surprises even local agents. This home runs on real Southwest Gas natural gas service. Not propane. Not an all electric setup with a tank buried in the side yard.

Most homes on a Cave Creek county island are all electric or on propane, which means an electric cooktop, electric fireplaces, and a tank you have to fill. This one has a large gas cooktop and two gas fireplaces, one in the living room and one in the primary suite. If you cook, you already know why that matters. If you have ever paid a propane bill in January, you know why that matters too.

Inside the home

The scale hits you first. Fourteen foot ceilings with tray detail run through the main living space, and a folding glass wall opens the room straight out to the covered patio. Large format 12 by 24 designer tile runs everywhere, and there is no carpet anywhere in the home.

The kitchen was fully remodeled with Taj Mahal quartzite counters and white oak cabinetry, built around dual islands. There is a 40 plus inch gas cooktop, a built in Monogram appliance package, a dedicated ice maker, and a deep walk in pantry. The dining room has a built in buffet, the light fixtures have been updated throughout, and the window coverings are electric and remote controlled.

A split plan where every bedroom is a suite

The floor plan is split, with four bedrooms and 4.5 baths across a single level. Every bedroom has a walk in closet and its own ensuite bath, and two of them have double door entries. There is no hierarchy of good rooms and leftover rooms here, which is why this home works so well for multigenerational families and for people who host often.

The primary suite sits privately on its own side with a gas fireplace, a soaking tub, an oversized walk in shower, and his and her closets. There is also a separate flex space that works as an office, a gym, or a second living room, plus a pool bath with direct outdoor access and an additional half bath.

Built for outdoor living, with room to add a pool

The covered patio runs the full length of the home, finished with tile, recessed lighting, ceiling fans, speakers, misters, and a mounted television. It is already done. You are not building a patio, you are furnishing one.

The front courtyard has a rotunda entry, and the grounds are finished with fruit trees, turf, and manicured walking paths. There is still open, usable land for a resort style pool, a casita, a sport court, or all three. The pool bath is already plumbed and positioned for the day the pool goes in.

The expensive things are already handled

This is where a lot of homes in this price range quietly cost you another hundred grand after closing. Not this one.

The roof is new in 2026 and carries a five year warranty. The bedroom HVAC was replaced in 2025 and the water heater in 2025. The ceilings were just repainted. The home also has an H2O Concepts whole home water filtration system, a central vacuum system, security screen doors, and built in cabinetry in the garage. Big ticket items, already done, with life left on all of them.

Where it sits

Rancho Tierra Drive is off 56th Street in the 85331, tucked into the pocket of custom estates between Lone Mountain and Cave Creek Road. You get the quiet, the dark skies, and the acreage, and you are still about fifteen minutes from Desert Ridge Marketplace for shopping and dining, close to the Cave Creek and Carefree restaurants and trailheads, and an easy drive to the Loop 101 for the airport and North Scottsdale.

The neighborhood itself has been trading strong. Homes on this street have sold well above two million, and the buyers moving out here are doing it for exactly what this lot offers: space, no HOA, and room for the life they actually live.
