About This Home

As of June 2014

You have never seen a home quite like this. Perched on an acre+ lot w/360 degree Mtn Views, this Desert Hills Estate beauty is a treasure trove of delightful features. The Owners' Favorite is a centerpiece Great Rm that flows lazily into an airy Kitchen w/Brk Rm. Your spacious Master BdRm-w/private patio exit-includes a dramatically remodeled Bath Ste. Beautiful Oak and Tile floors grace the home. From your Great Rm, ease out to a covered back patio extending the length of the home. Walled Back Yd is your own kingdom featuring: curved Bunco Bench framing a natural gas Fire Pit; built in gas BBQ w/bar seating; and, ample land on which to create your own dreams! RV Gate/RV parking. Huge detached work shop/Man Cave. Two new 18-Seer A/C! See supplement & docs section for floor plan, upgrades. Supplemental Information re 38230 N 1ST St Phoenix AZ 85086.
The owners define the heart of the home as the expansive, airy Great Room, coupled with the whimsical Kitchen and Breakfast Room. The Great Room delivers superb livability and a comfortable style. It's high, vaulted ceilings, wall of windows for natural light, ample ceiling and accent lighting, and the blaze of the custom gas fire place glowing in the corner make a lovely backdrop for semi-formal dining, or, comfortable conversation/family gatherings. A custom wood and granite mantle was added to the fireplace, beautifully framing it and adding to the ambiance of the room. You will also appreciate the discreet, built in storage available in the pony wall that separates the Great Rm from the hallway. All in all, this Great Room is such a lovely spot in which to relax and connect with family and friends, partake of a delicious dinner, enjoy a game of your choice, or a great movie. All the while, the backyard views ease themselves into the warmth of the setting through the wall of windows. Beautiful wood shutters grace these Great Room windows, too. Newly installed heavy duty screen doors in the Great Room (and Master Suite) facilitate a gentle flow of fresh air into your home. Prepare to be smitten with this home's unique Kitchen - Breakfast Nook blend. The dining nook is very spacious with bay windows offering gorgeous mountain views, and glowing red sunset vistas. Beautiful custom oak cabinetry with hardware graces the Kitchen, and the Custom Island features a delightful Breakfast Bar, too. Notable kitchen features include: a glass gas cook top newly installed in 2012, and a view window over the kitchen sink that affords the Chef "eyes-on" the built-in gas BBQ/bar and paver patio entertainment areas. A real winner is the walk in pantry (a You-can-Waltz-in-it Pantry !) - and the new owners will be truly amazed with the extensive, custom shelving therein, and a pocket door at its entry to maximize space. The Master Bedroom Suite is split from the other two bedrooms by the main hall. New, Lovely 16" ceramic tile graces both the bedroom and bath suites; the vaulted ceilings add a great dimension to the room. The owners invested over $10,0000 in a 2013 remodel of the Master Bath, creating a show-stopping Grand Shower and Drying-off Foyer. The Shower is constructed using TruStone by Avonti; one of the shower's side walls is a stunning Butt Glass creation. The original shower was significantly expanded to create a total Spa-like atmosphere for owners that love a pampering experience. Enjoy double rain shower and diverter shower heads, four cut-in accoutrement shelves; new towel rails-also stressed as handrails- were installed in the drying-off foyer. The Master Bathroom has a private water closet, nice master closet with custom shelving, a pedestal vanity sink, custom oak cabinets and shelving, vanity area, and new lighting and bath hardware. NOTE: There is existing plumbing- capped- ready for the new owner to easily add an additional sink. The Master Ste is framed on one wall with Bay Windows, affording the homeowner mountain and sunset views. This retreat also has a separate exit to the gorgeous covered back patio- which extends the full length of the home, and is sure to bring a smile of delight to your face as you imagine the entertaining possibilities. This home includes two additional nice-sized bedrooms: one has a Bay Window, both have wonderful mountain views. One of the suites also has an adorable window bench in conjunction with the Bay Window, which beckons the "reader- in-you" to just want to curl up and while away the day with a good book. Between these two bedrooms is a full Bath Suite with pedestal
sink.
If you thought you loved the Master Bath Suite best, or perhaps that glorious Great Room, just wait until you see the laundry room- we call it the heavenly Mud Room Suite! This multipurpose room is located between the garage and the kitchen. Your dreamy mud room includes: superb storage with huge wall pantry/closets; washer and dryer hook up (both washer and dryer will convey), and enjoy either the gas stub or electric option for your dryer; a built-in Ironing Board that folds down when needed; and every woman's dream of a laundry folding area. This Mud Room Suite also includes a 1/2 bath with pedestal sink!
The walled backyard is expansive with ample area left for whatever your heart desires. The actual property boundaries extend outside of each side wall and past the back wall (see the imagery in both the photos and documents sections)! Landscaping was upgraded in both the front
and back yards, to include updating the automatic sprinkler system (2005); new solar landscape lights (2013) nicely line the entry to the home.
A delightful custom paver patio was added to the back yard entertainment/lounge area in 2006 and features a Bunco Bench half-moon configuration, focal point natural gas fire pit, a poured pad and electrical outlet for a Spa, and a natural Gas BBQ with Entertainment Bar. On the north
flank of the paver patio, the gardener in the family will surely appreciate the potting bench/station which does convey with the home.
Within the backyard you will see ample space for RV parking-and there is also a standing electrical panel installed there for RV support. Or,as you gaze around, you might also be envisioning plenty of space to park the boat or trailer! There is an 12' wide RV Gate on the side of the work shop, providing the vehicular access to the back yard; additional
access to the back yard is provided via a walking gate as well, situated between the main house and the detached work shop.
This is a Huge Backyard, truly! Just imagine a nice garden, horse set up, pool, bocce ball court, grassy play area, or basket ball court-endless options....
Yes, we have a true Man's Mecca for you! There is an awesome detached work garage (22-4 X 29-4),with an Over Height garage door /10 x 10. All shelving/all walls in the work garage will convey! There are additional 220 outlets and an additional breaker box in this work shop, too. You name the project and then make it happen in this Man Cave: think welding, wood-working, or, build a motorcycle, store a golf cart, more!
There is a side door on the work shop, just off the back patio area, which allows you easy access to the 2 car extended length garage (25' by 22') with an OH door (18'W and 8'H). You will love the great storage areas in this garage, and the water heater and water softener are within one of them. One of the home's 3 attic accesses is located in this garage, with a pull down ladder/steps. This 2-car garage has direct access into the main house via the Laundry/Mud Room.
The residence deserves high marks for energy efficiency on several accounts: It is an Integra Block home by Regal Homes; the owners had two new 3-Ton 18 SEER Trane A/Cs installed in Aug 2013 (10yr warranty); all new sun screens were just installed; there are double pane windows in the home; and lighted fans in all rooms. Energy efficient shades are found in all rooms/all convey with the home.

This home has a newer (2010) water softener; a 60 gallon ...
