About This Home

As of November 2016

TW Lewis semi-custom home nestled adjacent to South Mountain Preserve w/views of Telegraph Pass from the front & backyard! Enjoy breathtaking views of the Estrella Mountains from the front courtyard. Located in the gated community of Whistling Rock the developer embraced the counters of the mountain in creating lots that adapt to the original mountain contours that are very unique. This property is graced w/ the largest ''usable'' backyard space in this neighborhood to include a diving pool w/ slide, a sports court, great space for the kids to play, as well as plenty of room for entertaining! The spacious entry leads to a formal living & dining room overlooking the backyard.
The twelve foot ceilings w/crown molding & a suspended light fixture for the dining table add and air of elegance. The kitchen and great room are approximately one thousand square feet and encourage hosting of gathering of family and friends. Picture windows overlook the lagoon style pool, hot tub, and mountain views. The kitchen is accented by granite counters, maple cabinets, stain steel appliances, & a GAS cooking range. Guests will love the side by side beverage refrigerators for soft drinks, beer, & wine. The master suite is privately nestled behind double doors leading to a large bedroom that is framed by full height windows looking out to the backyard and the hillside beyond. The master bath has seen a complete remodel down to the studs and now features custom cabinetry, marble counters, travertine backsplash, tub/tile enclosures, as well as travertine flooring. The children's wing includes two bedrooms each with large windows framing views of South Mountain. The wing also includes a "teen room" perfect for games, movie watching, or hanging out! There are double doors and a private full bathroom which has also been completely remodeled with custom cabinetry, granite counters, updated fixtures, and subway tile. On the other side of the home you will find the den/office with Stone Creek built in cabinets with two integrated work stations. Bedroom four is just down the hall with an adjacent bathroom perfect for company or guests. This bathroom has also been remodeled with granite counters, update fixtures, and subway tile backsplash and tub enclosure. After a long day, enjoy the backyard with spectacular views of the preserve hillsides & South Mountain. Cool down in the oversize diving pool with slide, oversize first step, large rock waterfall, & raised spa. One side of the yard has an area for a vegetable garden and the other side has plenty of grass & a sports court! This home has one of the largest residential solar arrays in the area rated at 12 kilowatts, reducing the electrical bills significantly.
