The History of Doney Park
A farming community originally, Doney Park and the Timberline area east of Flagstaff had the largest field of pinto beans in the county. The fields were dependent on summer monsoons and snowmelt. The 1950s brought an end to Flagstaff’s farming history, but Doney Park has kept its ranching roots, becoming an area known for large acred lots and horses farms.
If Doney Park Was A Netflix Series, It Would Be….
It would be Pluto: The Last Frontier. If you are not aware, on February 18, 1930, Pluto was discovered in the city of Flagstaff. Flagstaff is the world’s first International Dark Sky Place, which basically means that the skys of Flagstaff are fantastic for stargazing and Doney Park is just the place to do so. Doney Park’s multi-acre parcels allow for less light pollution and most of the area is not as heavily treed as other areas of Flagstaff.
If Doney Park was a Band, it Would Be….
The Highway Men. All of those amazing old-time country singers would love to sing about the amazing mountain views and clean air!
If Doney Park Was An Actor It Would Be…
Tommy Lee Jones, down to earth and hard-working. Often is noted for playing a supporting role but has the talent to star in an epic western with expansive mountain views & room for animals or close enough to downtown to get to your Space Cowboy job at Lowell Observatory in 20 minutes.

Warm and bright sunshine in the summer, chilly mornings with colorful aspens in the fall, snow with freezing temperatures in the winter, and a mix of everything in the spring.

Market Trends
Flagstaff has historically had a market based on high demand and low inventory. This creates a seller’s market, with buyers scooping up Flagstaff homes quickly as they come on the market. In the past 20 years, home prices have increased in Arizona by an average rate of 4.15%. In 2021 – they doubled!
