Palma Viva isn't a name most people recognize, but its story runs deep.
More than a century ago, this land was part of the old Gilliland Groves, once selling dates and citrus under the trade name Arawan. In 1978, instead of wiping the slate clean, the original farm structures shaped what became Palma Viva, a thoughtfully designed 71-unit community built with respect for its past.
That history still shows up inside this move-in-ready one-bedroom, one-bath home. Vaulted ceilings, a fireplace, and a warm, efficient layout create an easy, old-Arizona feel that is comfortable, grounded, and full of character. Every inch is used with intention, with no wasted space.
Outside, winding garden paths and mature date palms create an unexpected quiet in the heart of Arcadia. Located in the coveted 85018 zip code, with canal access, Camelback in the distance, and a community pool just steps away, this is city living that doesn't feel hectic.
Palma Viva isn't your average complex, and this isn't just another condo.
It's a piece of Phoenix history, repurposed for the next generation.
