Phoenix MLS Real Estate Listings
Modern: According to Matthew and Alison King, the editors of ModernPhoenix.net, there are many revitalized areas where all the luxury and modern conveniences of a new home meet the expert craftsmanship and architectural marvel of historic 1950s and 1960s-style properties. Phoenix real estate listings are full of these coveted gems. Paradise Gardens (with Phoenix MLS from 36th and Gold Dust to 33rd and Mountain View) is a development from legendary Arizona icon Al Beadle. The architectural design is notoriously boxy and geometric, with the look of a museum or a storage facility more than a home. Architecture junkies say these properties are "very 1960s" using minimalist design features, beam-and-post structures and concrete flooring. Its simplicity isn't fooling anyone with an eye for art, though, as the going-rate is in the $500,000 range. Home buyers can look for modern sub-divisions in the Phoenix real estate listings, searching for the following names: Paradise Gardens, Star of Paradise, Chateau Thierry, Sunnyslope and Cactus Heights, Marlen Grove, Canal North, Rancho Ventura, Windemere, Village Grove and Town & Country.
- Historic: Phoenix MLS span 36 districts in Phoenix alone, including more than 7,000 homes. One of the more popular historic districts is the F.Q. Story Neighborhood, consisting of 602 homes constructed during the 1920s -- 1940s using a wealth of architectural styles, including: Spanish Colonial Revival, English Tudor, Craftsman bungalows, Norman cottages, Mediterranean, Neoclassical, Art Modern, Ranch, Mission and Pueblo. Perusing the neighborhoods, home buyers will notice the low-pitched roofs, red tile shingles, prominent archways and stucco exteriors of Spanish Colonial Revival, as well as the medieval steeply-pitched roofs, ornamentation and brick chimneys of the Tudor Revivals. In Maricopa County, there are many other time-period-inspired Phoenix real estate listings as well, including the Alvarado, Ashland Place, Blount Addition, Cheery Lynn, Chelsea Place, Coronado Neighborhood, Country Club Park, Del Norte Place, East Alvarado, Encanto-Palmcroft, Fairview Place, Idylwilde, Kenilworth, Oakland, Phoenix Homesteads, Portland Street, Roosevelt, Victoria Place, Willow, Windsor and Woodland Historic Districts.
- Retirement: The Copper Square neighborhood is one of the Phoenix MLS that made CNN Money Magazine's list of "Best Places to Retire." These maintenance-free condos, lofts and townhomes begin at $300,000 and offer close proximity to many downtown attractions. Residents can catch an orchestra performance, opera or ballet at Symphony Hall, watch a pro baseball game at Chase Field, watch performances on two stages at the Herberger Theater Center and tour the Rosson Historical Museum or the Phoenix Museum of History. The 65+ population is expected to double by 2025, making Phoenix real estate listings the hottest option for seniors.
- Golf: It's no secret that many people flood the Phoenix real estate listings looking for golf communities where they can enjoy their hobbies and resort-style living for their post-retirement days. The Estrella Residential Golf Community spans 20,000 acres at the foot of the Sierra Estrella Mountains, offering breathtaking views, as well as an award-winning, Jack Nicklaus II designed golf course. Golfweek Magazine called it one of the "Top Public Courses in the Country," one of "America's Top 100 Residential Golf Clubs" and one of the "10 Best Golf Courses in the United States." Quaint villages are joined by parkspace, winding roads, biking and hiking trails and offer on-site retail shopping, medical facilities, recreation, police and fire stations, schools and lakes. There are, of course, tons of other golf residences in the Phoenix MLS.

Arts and Crafts Information - Sheldon Kalnitsky
Arts and crafts include a whole host of activities and hobbies that are related to making things with one's own hands and skill. These can be sub-divided into handicrafts or "traditional crafts" (doing things the old way) and the rest. Some arts and crafts have been practiced for centuries, while others are modern inventions, or popularizations of crafts which were originally practiced in a very small geographic area.
The specific name Arts and Crafts movement was also given to a design movement of the late 19th and early 20th century, whose proponents included William Morris and Edwin Lutyens. They believed that medieval craftsmen achieved a joy in the excellence of their work, which they strove to emulate. These activities are called crafts because initially many of them were professionals. Youngsters were apprenticed to a master-craftsman, and they refined their skills over a period of years. By the time their training was complete, they were well-resourced to set up in trade for themselves, earning their living with the skill of their hands. The Industrial Revolution and the increasing mechanizations of production processes gradually reduced or eliminated many of the roles professional craftspeople played, and today 'crafts' are most commonly seen as a form of hobby.
Most crafts require a combination of skill and talent, but they can also be learnt on a more basic level by almost anyone. Many Community centres and schools run evening or day classes and workshops offering to teach basic craft skills in a short period of time. Many of these crafts become very popular for brief periods of time (a few months, or a few years), spreading rapidly among the crafting population as everyone emulates the first examples.
TYPES OF ARTS/CRAFTS:
There are almost as many variations on the theme of 'arts and crafts' as there are crafters with time on their hands , but they can be broken down into a number of categories as follows.
Textile Crafts
Clay or Glass Crafts
Paper or Canvas Crafts
Metalworking Crafts
Crafts Involving Plants
Wood Crafts
Handicraft, also known as craftwork or simply craft, is a type of work where useful and decorative devices are made wholly by hand or using only simple tools. Usually the term is useful to conventional means of making goods. Handicrafts are generally considered more traditional work, created as a necessary part of daily life, whilst "Arts and Crafts" implies more of a hobby pursuit and a demonstration/perfection of a creative technique. In practical terms, the categories have a great deal of overlap.
