About This Home

As of August 2025

Equestrian paradise in Desert Hills! Just south of Anthem, this 1.17-acre horse property offers the perfect blend of rural charm and modern convenience. The professional horse setup includes a tack room, turnouts, stalls, and an arena, making it ideal for serious equestrians. A spacious chicken coop and a massive climate-controlled greenhouse with an auto-watering system add to the property's self-sufficient appeal. The move-in-ready 4-bed, 2-bath home has been meticulously updated with a new foam roof, new Anderson windows, and a resurfaced pool with a new pump. Lush natural grass, mature shade trees, and a large covered patio provide the perfect outdoor retreat. Located in a peaceful, horse-friendly community, it's close to town yet feels like a world away! This value also features stalls, chicken coop, and has enough space for horses to roam. Act swiftly!
