PARADISE VALLEY, Ariz. — Arizona’s housing boom is leading to home prices soaring to unheard-of heights.

A Paradise Valley home was recently sold for $21 million, making it the most expensive house sold in the state, according to a real estate listing service.

What does $21 million get you?

The home, or mansion if you like, resides in the exclusive Cameldale neighborhood and sits on a 4.27-acre estate with stunning views of Camelback Mountain in nearly every direction.

The 15,736 square-foot Tuscan-style home has seven bedrooms and 14 bathrooms, a 4-car garage and a guesthouse with its own two bedrooms and bathrooms.

Meanwhile, prices for more middle-class homes have also soared and the trend isn’t slowing down.

Phoenix home sale prices are up more than 20% year-over-year, according to a March report from the Arizona Regional Multiple Listing Service.

The median sale price for a home in Phoenix reached $460,000 and is possible to increase to $475,000 by mid-May, the report said.

The report stated 3,918 newly built homes sold in the first quarter compared to 4,444 in the same time frame last year and newly built home sales in Maricopa County are down 11.87% year-over-year.

According to the Cromford Report, which analyzes the real estate market, demand is about 17% above normal for this time of year, while supply is down 75%.
