A must see! This custom Santa Fe-style 3,371 square foot optionally furnished home is a rare gem in the desert with rare spectacular 360 degree views where you can see Four Peaks, downtown Phoenix, South Mountain, Camelback Mountain, the Superstition Mountains & on a clear day even the Catalina Mountains, all from an approximate 1,475 square foot roof top deck while you sip your favorite glass of wine. Not surprisingly, this is also the spot to watch 4th of July fireworks shows from all around in the Valley of the Sun.

The covered patio area includes five ceiling fans to help keep cool, and north-side shade. Fencing divides you from the botanical and wildlife paradise where you can walk out and enjoy.
