Waterfront living in Tempe brings a rare and peaceful lifestyle to the heart of the city. Communities like The Lakes offer charming homes set along quiet man-made waterways, where you can enjoy tranquil views, mature landscaping, and a strong sense of neighborhood pride. While the water is mostly for visual enjoyment and small electric boats, the setting adds a refreshing touch to daily life.

​

Just minutes away, you'll find vibrant shopping and dining at Tempe Marketplace, cultural experiences at ASU Gammage and the Tempe Center for the Arts, and easy outdoor escapes at Kiwanis Park and Papago Park. Whether you’re relaxing by the water or exploring everything Tempe has to offer, living in one of its waterfront neighborhoods combines serenity with convenience.
