About This Home
Welcome to Tierra Ranchos - a private gated community.
**Tucked away at the end of a quiet cul-de-sac shared by just four homes, this exceptional property sits on a spacious 1.15-acre lot, offering the rare combination of privacy, room to breathe, and resort-style living that's increasingly difficult to find in the Valley.
The main home features 4 bedrooms, 3.5 bathrooms, a dedicated office, and a large craft/sewing room. Inside, you'll love the open-concept design where the gourmet kitchen -- complete with granite countertops, stainless steel appliances, and a generous center island - flows effortlessly into the expansive family room with a cozy fireplace and oversized windows that flood the space with natural light. Vaulted ceilings, formal living and dining areas, and thoughtful finishes complete the inviting interior.
The primary suite is a true retreat, boasting dual vanities, a luxurious jetted soaking tub, and a separate walk-in shower.
Adding incredible versatility is the fully self-contained 858 sq ft guest house, which includes a full kitchen, living room, one bedroom, a full bathroom with laundry hookups, and a flex room. Whether you need space for extended family, visiting guests, this separate living quarters is perfectly appointed.
Step outside to your private backyard oasis - built for both relaxation and unforgettable entertaining. Enjoy a stunning saltwater pool with a waterfall and wrap-around slide, an above-ground hot tub, a spacious covered patio, and a built-in BBQ. Mature landscaping frames the entire space, creating a lush, resort-like retreat right in your own backyard.
Storage & Convenience: A detached tandem 6-car garage including a dedicated RV garage deliver outstanding storage and flexibility. Electrical upgrades include an EV charger in the main garage, a 50A EV/RV outlet in the RV garage, and a 30A 240V outlet - perfect for tools or a welder.
Smart Home Integration (Next-Level Convenience): This home has been thoughtfully upgraded with one of the most comprehensive smart home systems you'll find anywhere. Every major system is app-connected and remotely monitored:
" HVAC: Honeywell T9 smart thermostats with room sensors for precise, zone-controlled comfort
" Irrigation: Hunter Hydrawise -- weather-aware, water-efficient system with flow monitoring and instant alerts
" Weather Station: On-site professional station tracking wind, rain, and humidity -- feeding directly into the irrigation system and shared with Weather Underground and AccuWeather
" Garage Doors: LiftMaster MyQ smart openers with battery backup and real-time notifications
" Ceiling Fans: App-controlled with scheduling and vacation modes
" Pool & Spa: Pentair IntelliCenter system -- full app control of schedules, chemistry, lighting, and water features
" Network & Security: Enterprise-grade Ubiquiti UniFi system with high-performance WiFi, a dedicated IoT network, wired smart cameras (including two-way video doorbell), and network intrusion detection
" Whole-Home Audio: 6-zone sound system, fully app-controlled
" Lighting & Locks: Insteon-controlled yard lighting and Schlage Encode smart door locks
This is far more than a "smart home" -- it's a meticulously planned, high-performance system designed for effortless living, efficiency, and peace of mind.
If you're looking for space, privacy, quality construction, and true resort-style living in a Gilbert community, this is an opportunity not to be missed.
