MARCH
I think March is one of the best months in Arizona! Spring Training, March Madness, perfect weather and of course, St. Patrick’s Day celebrations. I recently discovered that my Leprechaun name is ‘Greenie McTavern’. This edition of Art de Vivre, Ventana Fine Properties’ luxury properties and lifestyles publication, features a magnificent home in Desert Mountain, as well as properties for sale in DC Ranch and nearby neighborhoods. If you weren‘t able to make our first Food Truck Saturday, please join us for future events each month. We had great fun and the food was scrumptious! We also invite you to stop by our office for a visit anytime - you’ll find us friendly and helpful. See you soon! Thank you for reading -

We at Ventana Fine Properties believe that working to achieve higher property values is the single most important objective for 2016. We stand with our clients, friends & neighbors to protect and preserve their real estate assets.
Meet Marie It all began in 1985 when Marie started her real estate career in France. On the road along the Atlantic coast between Bordeaux and Biarritz, she was selling three new home developments, then heading to Val d 'Isere, the first winter sport resort in Europe, to market new condos in "The Village". Marie then continued to hone her expertise in Cannes, selling a 40-unit waterfront building, before settling in Saint Tropez. There she sold and managed some of the most luxurious properties on the Mediterranean coast, working with an elite celebrity clientele that demanded confidentiality and trust. She brought her talent for real estate to America 15 years ago and quickly established herself as a respected professional in the luxury home real estate market in Scottsdale, Arizona. Marie’s understated approach with high attention to detail fuses not only with her expertise and knowledge of international markets, but also her intuitiveness in regards to the needs of her clients. Her vast knowledge of market trends and statistics of the most exclusive communities in Scottsdale, Paradise Valley and Phoenix provides a valued source of information and makes her an expert in the luxury market.
Marie Heilman
Marie is very culturally aware and engaged in her business, with 30 years of local and international experience. She has an exceptional worldwide network of over 180,000 professionals. She speaks English fluently as well as French and Spanish and offers a unique perspective to sellers on what today’s local and international buyers desire in a property.

“FUNRaising”at Desert Mountain
Desert Mountain is more than beautiful homes, fabulous hiking trails, a brand new fitness center, pristine tennis courts, phenomenal golf courses and top-notch service and facilities. Desert Mountain is an engaging, stimulating Community rich in talent and compassion. Desert Mountain Members’ CARE exemplifies the depth and drive of the members. 19 years ago, three brave Desert Mountain breast cancer survivors fought back by creating CARE to fund local cancer research. They knew the spirit of the DM community would yield success. And they were right.
$Five million in funding later, the many breakthroughs we’ve all helped create at Mayo and HonorHealth have prompted us to set a goal to approach $6 million for this year’s 19th Hole Celebration March 7 and 8th. The Richest Day in Golf is the headline excitement for the Event, with $1M in hole in one prizes as well as cars donated by local dealers. Last year “Ace” MacAllen won $50,000 and we’re hoping for $150,000 this year. Dinner, Auctions and a Spotlight Celebration follow golf. The next day, CARE introduces its newest form of “FunRaising”, a Pub Crawl Spectacular! The clubhouse will be transformed into four pubs, with beer pong, ring toss and other pub games to enjoy with friends while raising money. Desert Mountain is not just a place to live, it is a place to call home. CARE is one of the ways that new members and residents are welcomed into the community, by becoming involved. Through CARE, or hiking groups, or golf, tennis and fitness, or the Sonoran Speakers Series, Desert Mountain Members are vibrant, talented and involved! Art de Vivre
