Sedona, AZ 86336

A wall of glass captures the best Sedona views from the street named for its essence, Sky Line Drive. The Chapel of the Holy Cross, a mile distant, is seen across openness. At night the subdued city lights twinkle in this “Dark Sky” designated town. The expanse of windows with electronically controlled security roll shutters, by choice, seal the light from the rooms & provide security. Views extend 4 to 5 miles into Oak Creek Canyon. Enjoy the most comfortable heating & cooling provided by a recently installed energy efficient geothermal HVAC system (installed cost of $71K) for the nominal expense of running four small pumps. Amazing glass & copper entry doors open directly onto views. 2 primary bedrooms are on the main level & a complete “suiteEL” with kitchenette below. See supplement.
Hark! Seekers of a red rock view scape! Sky Mountain is enjoying a renaissance as new owners pour hundreds of thousands of dollars into these luxury estates. Established when owners seeking the most advantageous view locations chose the rarity of Sky Mountain. The adjacent home is recently renovated & 3 more homes on Sky Line Drive are currently under restoration.
Landforms included in views: Thunder Mountain, Lost Wilson Mtn., Wilson Mtn., Sail Rock, Steamboat, The Mogollan Rim, one of The Mittens, Crimson Cliffs, Munds Mountain, Twin Buttes, The Nuns, Gibraltor & Lee Mountain. The completely renovated (2011) home is truly a "work of art".
The home is luxuriously comfortable with an open floor plan & "spot on" tasteful finishes. Not subject to the vagaries of the fossil fuel market. Two electronic air purifiers. Owner states: "Best heating and cooling of the six homes I've lived in or built...one can hardly tell that the system is running it's so even and quiet...I find myself checking at the registers for air flow, it's that even. Plus the registers are in the floor not the ceiling, so the temperature is even and particularly evident in the winter when homes with ceiling registers have uneven heating since heat rises".
An amazing glass and copper double entry door opens directly onto the wall of views while the sounds emitted by the fountain in the vestibule asks of you to relax. The home contains Ten Marble countertops of Verde Rainforest, Cafe Rainforest and onyx (powder room). The marble from India is known as the "Royal Stone" due to its long life. Long used as the first choice when building palaces, monuments, statues and the like. Nearly an acre offers elbow room & privacy. 2 primary bedrooms are on the main level & a complete "suiteEL" with kitchenette below.
Flooring is carpet free, predominately travertine, tile & wood floors including the Brazilian cherry floors in the great room, master bedroom and hall.
Kitchen has two microwaves (one is convection as well), a warming drawer, a dual fuel six burner gas cooktop Viking stove. The oven is electric and may be operated in the normal heating or convection mode, Dacor side by side refrigerator/freezer and quiet Dacor dishwasher. Cabinets are Thomasville cherry with dovetailed construction with easy close drawers. A water softener with a bypass to the kitchen sink and refrigerator ice maker provide sodium free water.
An onyx slab art piece over the living room wood burning fireplace stays as a gift from the owner. He states, "The piece was made for this location. I would want the new owner to enjoy its beauty." The dining area is graced by gorgeous red rock views and one of the home's four chandeliers.
Mission style oak doors with 1" oak casing lead to the two primary level bedrooms which each have coffered octagonal ceilings, mood lighting and recessed ceiling fans. All bedroom lighting is controlled from bedside. Four alabaster sconces in the master and master bath. The master bath also offers a Jacuzzi tub with teak surround, a stained glass window commissioned by artist Monica Cates, a multi-person stone shower with glass doors and dual opposite facing vanities with one-of-a-kind numbered vessel sinks & bronze fittings.
Throughout the home dimmer switches and recessed lighting provide a romantic atmosphere and to further enhance the romance a 300 bottle wine cellar with redwood racking and solid wood doors with ornate heart shapes carved into the surface. Cat 5 wiring throughout the home allows for a high speed home network (LAN) with the addition of a router and internet service provider.
There are built in cabinets and file drawers in the home office with a quiet setting and fabulous views.
Windows and sliding glass doors are bronze clad Pella. New windows are commercial quality low "E".

Stately pines and junipers are in abundance on this mountainside lot & adjacent properties where a fire station (less than one mile away) has paramedics on duty 24/7. Oak Creek to the North explodes with color in the fall when the cottonwood trees take on hues of the season and it appears as a ribbon of yellow. Snowstorms or lightening storms are simply awe inspiring. At sunset the landforms are brilliantly alight as the sun disappears behind the mountain, casting its final rays as though kissing the rocks with deep red lipstick. A glass of wine while enjoying the warm waters of the spa is a great way to end the day, relax and celebrate the grandeur of nature. It is doubtful there exists a more beautiful place to live and your sanctuary includes an oversized patio and garden beckoning you outside to enjoy each change of the day's colors & to soak up sun in the 320 + or - days per year of Arizona sunshine.
