About This Home

Rare opportunity in Cave Creek on over an acre surrounded by $2.5M+ custom homes. This versatile property includes a well-maintained residence set far back from the road, offering exceptional privacy and options for future development. Live in the existing home while you design and build your dream estateor convert it into a casita once your main home is complete. A full-hookup RV pad at the front of the lot provides current rental income or additional guest accommodations. Expansive desert views, no HOA, and ample space for garages, horse facilities, or a resort-style backyard make this a true blank canvas in one of Cave Creek's most desirable locations.

The existing single-level home features an open floor plan with bright living spaces, a functional kitchen, and spacious bedrooms. Large windows bring in natural light and capture the surrounding desert landscape, while the extended covered patio provides a comfortable space for outdoor living. The home is move-in ready, offering the flexibility to occupy or rent immediately, yet also ideal for cosmetic updates to match your personal style. Whether you're seeking a private retreat, an income-producing property, or a transitional home during construction, this residence is ready to meet your needs.
