The story
You know that feeling when you're on vacation and catch yourself thinking, ''I could live here''? This is that place. Tucked into the quiet beauty of Arizona's White Mountains, this impeccably maintained custom-built 4-bedroom, 3-bath residence sits on over 3 private acres and offers a rare combination of luxury, space, privacy and four-season mountain living. Imagine stepping outside in the morning to cool mountain air, wildlife wandering nearby and little more than the sound of the breeze moving through the trees. Spend summer days hiking, fishing or exploring nearby off-road trails, then come home to peaceful evenings beneath brilliant sunsets and exceptionally clear night skies where the Milky Way is visible overhead. Winters bring the possibility of a white Christmas, while mild summers offer a welcome escape from the Phoenix heat. Inside, thoughtful details elevate everyday living, including in-floor heat, owned solar, a tankless water heater, floor-to-ceiling bathroom tile, new carpet in select rooms and multiple versatile flex spaces ideal for a private office, gym, den or sitting room. Covered front and rear decks invite you to enjoy the surrounding landscape throughout the seasons, while the fenced backyard features an above-ground spa and partial landscaping. The exterior of the home was recently restained, and the property is served by a private well and septic system. For vehicles, recreational toys and adventure gear, the property offers exceptional storage. In addition to the attached 3-car garage, a detached 1,033 sq ft, 2-bay RV garage features 16-foot ceilings and two 12-foot-wide doors. Here, privacy doesn't mean sacrificing convenience. The property is approximately 2.5 hours north of Phoenix and just 30-45 minutes from Show Low and Pinetop, with groceries, gas, restaurants and local shopping within reach. The surrounding communities offer the charm of small-town mountain living, seasonal events and unforgettable celebrations. This is more than a home in the mountains. It's a place to trade traffic for trails, noise for quiet and hot summer nights for cool breezes beneath a sky full of stars. Whether enjoyed as a full-time residence or private luxury retreat, this property offers the rare opportunity to experience one of Arizona's most peaceful and magical settings.
