Set within the prestigious guard-gated community of Desert Mountain in North Scottsdale, this thoughtfully reimagined residence offers a rare blend of privacy, natural beauty, and elevated desert living. Newly revitalized desert landscaping creates a welcoming approach, while sweeping mountain vistas and twinkling city lights provide a spectacular backdrop from the home and outdoor living spaces. The result is a peaceful and sophisticated retreat that embraces the beauty of its Sonoran Desert surroundings. Inside, recent enhancements create a refined, turnkey experience with a warm and timeless aesthetic. Fresh interior paint throughout, including the kitchen and bar cabinetry, gives the home a light and cohesive feel. The chef’s kitchen is designed for both everyday living and entertaining, featuring granite countertops, a generous island with seating, a farmhouse sink, and beautifully updated custom cabinetry. The spacious primary suite offers a peaceful retreat, while three guest en-suites provide comfort and privacy for family and guests. One is currently used as an office, adding flexibility for a dedicated workspace. The outdoor living spaces are equally impressive, taking full advantage of the home’s elevated setting and panoramic views. Generous covered patios, a built-in barbecue, and a cozy fireplace create inviting spaces for entertaining or relaxing year-round. A striking negative-edge pool and spa overlook the endless desert landscape, creating a tranquil, resort-style setting, while an upper view deck offers another spectacular vantage point for enjoying the scenery and Arizona sunsets. Thoughtful technology and design upgrades further elevate the home, including a premium Sonos sound system, integrated speakers, a comprehensive security camera setup, all-new designer lighting, and custom window treatments. A fully owned solar system provides additional energy efficiency. Combined with the exceptional setting and sought-after Desert Mountain lifestyle, this residence offers a sophisticated and comfortable retreat in one of North Scottsdale’s most desirable communities. A Seven Golf Membership is also available, providing an additional opportunity to enjoy the exceptional Desert Mountain lifestyle.
