About This Home

As of May 2022

This stately home is a Phoenix landmark, with its iconic white columns and lights adorning the hillside adjacent to the renowned Phoenix Mountains Preserve. Known as Casa Bella Vista, this home has the feel of a world class sanctuary, ideal as a luxury vacation rental or home retreat. With a five-star, rave review history on Airbnb/VRBO, this is a golden investment opportunity. As soon as you walk up to the entrance you are greeted by sweeping 270-degree views extending throughout the valley from Downtown Phoenix to Piestewa Peak. Welcome to your own Five Star Resort!

Nothing was overlooked during the recent $1.3M+ renovation project—only high-end materials and finishes were curated to showcase the best in modern desert living. Four levels of exterior areas, inspired by the dramatic secluded settings of Utah's Amingiri, allow for extraordinary entertaining.
-Retreat to your private resort-style pool and jacuzzi nestled against the mountains featuring breathtaking views of the mountains and the valley. On one side are the lights of the valley, on the other side is the glow of the mountains.
-A custom-built putting green allows golfers to perfect their putting game. The custom fire pit lined with high-end tiling creates a stunning backdrop for winter entertaining.
-A lower landing, lined with magnolias , allows a secluded gated area for large events or for pets to play.
-Solar lights on the mountain provide an effortless and environmentally friendly nightly illumination of the mountain in your backyard

Inside the expansive home, enjoy a spacious retreat with refined touches throughout.
-The chef's kitchen is an entertainer's dream complete with built-in Miele appliances and a jaw-dropping leathered double-waterfall Taj Mahal island.
-The real hardwood flooring blends seamlessly with the natural environment.
-The sophisticated glass wine wall in the formal dining room is sure to impress any dinner guests.
-The expansive master suite features a tiled bathroom and a solid terrazzo tub so heavy it had to be craned over the roof into the bathroom. Also featured in the master suite is an unparalleled walk-in closet worthy of the Real Housewives and a 270-degree private outdoor terrace.
-The expanded laundry room includes double washers/dryers, dog bath, and sink.
-Three expansive terraces each offer unique vistas. Each bedroom offers private terrace access.
-Each bathroom was extensively remodeled with unique features from a Turkish soaking tub in the upstairs guest bathroom to a door-less walk-in shower for the pool bathroom, easy to use for large summer events.

Beyond the landscape and architecture, the ultimate feature of Casa Bella Vista is the way in which our Valley sunsets bathe the home in colors that simply take your breath away. This sanctuary of a home is in the heart of town less than 5 minutes from the world-class shopping, dining and entertainment of Biltmore Fashion Park. Casa Bella Vista invites you to enjoy your slice of paradise.
