About This Home

As of August 2024

Stunning custom home heavily upgraded in the past year. Enter through the private courtyard rustic steel door. This wall was carefully created so the mountain views from the house were not obstructed. Meticulously cared for inside and out, no stone left unturned with this remodel. 4 bedrooms, 2.5 bathrooms, 3 car garage with a private oasis in the backyard featuring an extended patio, pool, spa, fire pit, outdoor kitchen, pitching and putting green, 2 RV gates, RV parking, walk thru gate, and professional landscaping and lighting. There are 360 degree mountain views and the most gorgeous sunrises and sunsets are enjoyed from the back patio. The kitchen is a chef's delight with beautiful knotty alder cabinets w/pullout shelves, chiseled edged granite counters, walk-in pantry with designer door, raised breakfast bar, and stainless steel appliances. Gorgeous built-in dining room hutch and dual under desk beverage/wine coolers. Easy care travertine flooring w/wood tile in master and upgraded carpet in other bedrooms. Professional designer painting in entry, office/den, and dining room. Family room features a massive stacked stone fireplace. The master retreat offers a cozy stacked stone fireplace, spa-like en-suite bath with granite counters, jetted tub, walk-in shower, dual sink vanities, and walk-in closet. All bedroom closets include professional organizers with hampers and drawers. Be sure to notice the attention to detail throughout the house and property--vega beam bottoms wrapped, custom finished garage doors, electric heaters on back patio ceiling, professionally mounted TVs in all bedrooms and back patio, courtyard wall built with intention to replace windows in front bedrooms with french doors for separate entry into the courtyard, bathroom plumbing and fixtures replaced, instant hot water at all faucets, the list goes on and on. Exterior is synthetic stucco which should never need painting. Central Vac. Propane powers the pool and spa heaters, BBQ grill, 2 indoor fireplaces, and outdoor firepit. Laundry room is plumbed for gas dryer. LG washer and dryer included. Great central location, within 10 minutes of Cave Creek Park w/hiking trails, horse trails, and within 12 minutes to Carefree/Cave Creek, 15 minutes to N Scottsdale, 10 minutes to I17. Homeowner is a former cop so the elaborate motion activated security system includes cameras and is monitored by ADT ($65 month). Property is zoned for horses--it would be easy enough to add horse facilities here.
