Convenient to shopping, restaurants, community parks, golf courses, South Mountain trails & freeway access. From the moment you cross the distinctive bridge entry, this home reveals a setting unlike the typical neighborhood homesite. Designed into the natural contours of the Ahwatukee Foothills, the single-level residence is carved into the preserve hillside, where changing elevations and staggered homesites create remarkable separation and a sense of seclusion. The elevated desert setting opens to sweeping southern vistas toward the Estrella Mountains, expansive Arizona skies and spectacular sunsets, creating a backdrop that changes beautifully from day into night. Inside, the home feels substantial yet comfortable. Expansive windows introduce abundant natural light and draw the surrounding scenery into the living spaces. Architectural soffit detailing adds dimension, while plantation shutters, quality finishes and extensive built-in cabinetry create a refined, established character. The great room features real hardwood flooring and a wood-burning fireplace with granite detailing coordinated with the kitchen. Large windows create a natural connection to the backyard and surrounding landscape, while the open layout provides an inviting setting for relaxed everyday living and entertaining. Formal dining provides a dedicated setting for dinner parties, celebrations and holiday gatherings. Throughout the home, defined spaces maintain an open, connected flow. One of the home's most distinctive interior spaces is the open office. Dual built-in desks create two dedicated workstations surrounded by extensive cabinetry and beautiful bookshelves. Equally suited to an executive home office or library, the generous proportions provide flexibility for a study, formal living room, playroom, creative space or additional gathering area. At the heart of the residence, the kitchen is designed for people who genuinely use and enjoy the space. An oversized granite island provides an impressive centerpiece with generous room for preparation, serving and gathering. Extensive maple cabinetry surrounds the kitchen, providing exceptional storage while adding warmth and richness to the room. Bosch built-in oven, microwave & dishwasher, generous counter space and an oversized pantry complete the kitchen. The casual dining area is positioned alongside abundant windows overlooking the backyard, creating a bright setting for morning coffee, informal meals and conversation. The split floor plan provides thoughtful separation between the primary suite and secondary living areas. The exceptionally spacious primary bedroom opens directly to the backyard through sliding glass doors, creating an effortless connection to the outdoor setting. The primary bath features dual vanities, separate tub & shower, private toilet room and a substantial walk-in closet with built-ins. Outdoor living takes full advantage of the hillside setting. The Pebble Tec pool features a raised Baja deck positioned to enjoy the mountain scenery, complemented by a built-in spa, covered patio, extended pavers and inviting areas for relaxing and entertaining. Sweeping southern views, expansive skies, colorful Arizona sunsets and star-filled nights provide an extraordinary backdrop. Indoor/outdoor surround sound extends the entertaining experience from the interior to the pool and patio areas. Meticulous care is evident throughout the residence. The exterior has been freshly painted, the roof was replaced in 2021 and the primary AC unit was replaced in 2019. A dedicated laundry room with built-in cabinetry provides additional storage and organization, while the 3-car garage offers generous space for vehicles and storage. There is no carpet, with a combination of real hardwood, tile and other hard-surface flooring throughout. The Ahwatukee Foothills lifestyle is an integral part of the experience. South Mountain offers miles of hiking & biking trails surrounded by dramatic Sonoran Desert scenery. Community parks, neighborhood dining, shopping and everyday conveniences are nearby, while convenient freeway access provides easy connections to Sky Harbor Airport & Downtown Phoenix. Morning hikes, afternoons by the pool, dinner nearby and evenings watching the mountains change color at sunset can all become part of everyday life. This is a home where architecture, setting and lifestyle come together--single-level living, thoughtfully designed spaces, substantial storage, a beautifully appointed kitchen, flexible work-from-home space and a resort-inspired backyard framed by the desert landscape.
