From the moment you enter, your attention is drawn through the living spaces towards the backyard and mountain views. The open great room floor plan creates a natural connection between the kitchen, dining areas, and living spaces for an easy, comfortable layout. Abundant natural light and current finishes enhance the move-in-ready interior, while the backyard features a heated saltwater pool, spa, covered patio, and more... all with a mountain backdrop.

A large center island anchors the space, alongside a gas cooktop, dual ovens, and an adjoining breakfast nook. Open to the surrounding living and dining areas, the kitchen works especially well for entertaining, allowing the cook to remain part of the conversation whether hosting friends or enjoying a relaxed evening at home. The grand primary suite is on the main level, separated from the secondary bedrooms, and offers large windows with views of the beautiful McDowell Mountains. The primary bathroom features dual vanities, a jetted tub, separate shower, and dedicated vanity area. A true standout is the substantially expanded walk-in closet, thoughtfully customized by the homeowners to create an impressive amount of organized storage and display space. More than simply functional, it is a beautifully finished extension of the suite and a feature that needs to be seen in person to fully appreciate. Also on the main level, the intimate study provides a comfortable space for working, reading, or retreating from the main living areas. Nearby, the temperature-controlled wine room accommodates more than 250 bottles and provides dedicated storage and display space for a collection.

The backyard was designed to make the most of Scottsdale's climate and the property's exceptional setting. A Pentair-controlled heated saltwater pool and spa are complemented by a striking fire feature positioned between the pool and mountain views. The covered patio includes drop-down shades and misters for added comfort, while turf and a built-in BBQ complete an outdoor living space equally suited to entertaining, relaxing poolside, dining outdoors, space for Fido to run, or enjoying the color-changing mountains during one of our trademark dynamic sunsets!
