Victory at Verrado Home for Sale: Single-Level Living with White Tank Mountain Views
High in the foothills of the White Tank Mountains, where the streets are lined with trees and the evenings glow copper over the valley, there is a neighborhood that people move to on purpose. 20947 W Mariposa Street sits right in the middle of it.
This is a Maracay Traveler, one of the most requested single-level floor plans in Victory at Verrado, Buckeye's 55+ active adult community and one of the standouts among Arizona's 55+ communities. It pairs 3 bedrooms, a private den and 3 full baths with a kitchen that was made for hosting and a backyard that was made for staying out late. Resales of this plan are uncommon, and when one comes to market in the heart of the Victory District, it tends to draw attention quickly.
What follows is the full picture: the home itself, room by room, and the lifestyle that comes with the address, from the 35,000-square-foot Victory Club to the golf, trails and Main Street that make Victory one of the most desirable places to live in Verrado and the entire West Valley.
The Home
The Maracay Traveler floor plan
Maracay built the Traveler for people who want space without stairs. Everything lives on one level, ceilings rise to nine feet and higher, and there are no interior steps anywhere in the home. The layout is anchored by an open great room and kitchen at its center, with the primary suite set apart for privacy and the secondary bedrooms grouped on their own wing.
At 20947 W Mariposa, that translates into 2,534 square feet per the county assessor (earlier marketing for this plan cites closer to 2,600), three bedrooms, a dedicated den and three full baths. In other words, every guest gets a bathroom, and you still get an office.
01 — THE KITCHEN
A kitchen made for hosting
This is the room the house was designed around. Staggered white maple cabinetry, granite counters and a classic subway tile backsplash surround an island big enough to serve as buffet, prep station and gathering spot all at once, with pendant lighting overhead and bar seating for guests who want to be part of the action.
The appliance package speaks to people who actually cook: a gas cooktop, double wall ovens and a built-in microwave. And the storage is the detail that wins buyers over: a butler's pantry for serving and overflow, plus a separate walk-in pantry.
- Oversized granite island with breakfast bar & pendants
- White maple cabinetry & subway tile backsplash
- Gas cooktop, double ovens, built-in microwave
- Butler's pantry plus walk-in pantry
- Eat-in dining open to the great room
02 — LIVING SPACES
Room to gather, room to retreat
The great room flows directly from the kitchen under a tray ceiling with recessed lighting, and sliding doors open straight onto the enclosed patio, so a dinner party moves outdoors without anyone noticing it happened. Wood, tile and carpet flooring define each zone, and dual-pane windows with solar screens keep the Arizona sun working for you, not against you.
The primary suite
Tucked away from the main living areas, the primary suite includes a bath with a double vanity and the quiet separation that makes a home feel restful.
Guest wing & den
Two additional bedrooms, each with access to its own full bath, make visits from children, grandchildren and friends easy for everyone. The den adapts to whatever this chapter of life looks like: a home office, a hobby studio, a library or a golf-simulator room.
- Tray ceiling, recessed lighting, 9'+ ceilings
- No interior steps: true single-level living
- Inside laundry & owned water softener
- 2-car garage with cabinets & direct entry
03 — OUTDOOR LIVING
Arizona evenings, done right
The backyard is where this home really earns its place. A covered, enclosed patio extends the living space nine or ten months of the year, and the block-fenced yard beyond is finished in travertine hardscape, synthetic turf and desert landscaping on automatic drip, so it looks polished year-round with almost no upkeep.
Add a built-in barbecue and the backdrop of the White Tank Mountains, and you have the setting for every sunset dinner you'll host here.
- Enclosed & covered patio off the great room
- Built-in BBQ for outdoor entertaining
- Travertine, turf & low-water desert landscaping
- Mountain views from a private yard
The house gives you room to gather. The neighborhood gives you a reason to.
The Community
What is Victory at Verrado?
Victory is the age-restricted, 55+ active adult district of Verrado, the master-planned town that DMB developed at the base of the White Tank Mountains in Buckeye, about 25 miles west of downtown Phoenix. It occupies Verrado's northern foothills, at the base of Tiger Mountain, and it does something most 55+ communities don't: it leaves the gates and walls out.
Victory residents are fully part of Verrado's all-ages hometown, with its parks, events and Main Street, while also enjoying a private, residents-only club of their own. Visit the official Victory at Verrado site ↗
Victory Club Amenities
A private resort, five minutes from your door
The Victory Club is the social and recreational heart of the community: roughly 35,000 square feet of indoor space, wrapped in pools, courts and terraces that look out over the valley. Most of it is reserved for Victory residents; the spa and The Vic Bar + Kitchen are also open to the public, which keeps the energy lively.
Resort, Lap & Therapy Pools
A resort-style lounge pool, an outdoor lap pool for serious swimmers, and activity and therapeutic pools for aqua classes and recovery.
12 Racquet Courts
The Racquet Sports Pavilion has 8 pickleball and 4 tennis courts, from round-robin mornings to league nights.
Life Performance Training Center
A full fitness center with a cardio studio, a movement studio and an outdoor yoga lawn for classes under the open sky.
The Vic Bar + Kitchen
The club's award-winning restaurant, known for live music, a private dining room and patio seating with sweeping valley views.
The Spa at the Victory Club
A full-service spa for massages and treatments, steps from the pools and courts.
The Sports Den
Flat-screen TVs, billiards, a whiskey bar and lounge seating: the place to be on game day.

Golf, Trails & the Outdoors
Mountain living, every single day
Few Arizona golf course communities can match what's here, which is why buyers like the clients in my Verrado golf course home under $1 million case study compete hard for these addresses. Verrado Golf Club gives Victory residents 36 holes of championship desert golf minutes from home. The Founders Course, designed by John Fought and PGA Tour champion Tom Lehman, plays through the lower foothills of Verrado, while the Victory Course, Lehman's design that opened in 2016, climbs into the White Tanks with some of the most dramatic mountain-and-valley views in Arizona golf.
Both courses are open to the public, and the club offers passholder programs for regular players, with a driving range, putting greens, lessons, and post-round dining at the Verrado Grille.
Off the course, Verrado's network of roughly 21 miles of paths and hiking trails and 78 community parks means an easy sunrise walk, a challenging summit hike or a bike ride is always right outside. For anyone relocating from a colder climate, this is what the Arizona lifestyle is supposed to feel like.
Everyday Convenience
Shopping, healthcare & easy access
One of Victory's quiet advantages is how much of daily life is close by. Verrado's Main Street, designed with the feel of a classic American downtown, has a Bashas' grocery, CVS Pharmacy, restaurants, salons and service businesses, plus a calendar of community celebrations throughout the year.
Healthcare is local, too. A Banner Health Center, physical therapy clinics and other medical offices operate within Verrado. Toward the freeway, the Marketside District and the large Verrado Marketplace development at Verrado Way and I-10 add more shopping and dining.
Getting out of town is just as easy: Verrado Way connects directly to Interstate 10, putting downtown Phoenix about 25 miles east.
A day on Mariposa Street
Catch first light on the White Tanks before the day warms up.
A few games at the pavilion, then laps in the outdoor pool.
A long lunch with neighbors and a view that never gets old.
Fire up the built-in BBQ and gather everyone around that island.
