An Unparalleled Car Collector’s Estate Taking Shape in Silverleaf Upper Canyon

 

 

 

Now two-thirds through construction, this extraordinary estate presents a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to own a true car collector’s dream home in Silverleaf Upper Canyon. Set on a private 4-acre canyon lot, the property offers sweeping panoramic views of the McDowell Mountains and the Silverleaf Golf Course, surrounded by conservation area open space that delivers rare seclusion and tranquility within the secure, guard-gated Silverleaf community. Exquisitely designed by RN Interior Design and Cosan Studio and artfully constructed by Sommer Custom Homes, the residence blends architectural significance with uncompromising functionality and scale.

The estate encompasses 19,257 square feet of livable space and an impressive 41,446 square feet under roof. A standout feature is the remarkable 14,000+ square foot garage complex, capable of accommodating 27 cars on the ground or up to 54 vehicles with lifts. In addition to a 4-car garage at the main level, the lower-level garage provides space for 23 vehicles and is designed as a climate-controlled, livable environment. This show garage includes a car display turntable, a lift that showcases a special vehicle inside a glass cube visible from the main-level exercise and lounge areas, a media and lounge space with bar, bathroom, storage areas, elevator and staircase access, and windows overlooking the Silverleaf community. With its walk-out basement design and level-on-grade drive-in access, this space is flooded with natural light and offers exceptional versatility, easily accommodating private events, charity functions, or recreational uses such as pickleball, field hockey, or other court-style sports. Portions of the space could also be converted into a shooting range, bowling alley, or other specialty amenities.

Throughout the home, thoughtful design and high-end finishes define every space. The residence offers six full bedroom suites and twelve bathrooms, along with a dramatic great room, bar, main kitchen, and a concealed second “chef’s” kitchen outfitted with commercial appliances. This secondary kitchen is ideal for private chefs or catering and includes a food tray lift servicing the upper-level entertainment area. Additional interior spaces include a theater room, an office with fireplace, a large exercise room opening to a covered patio, an expansive upper-level recreation room with fireplace, bar, and covered patios, a secondary family room, and a dedicated car lounge or man cave complete with its own bar. Five separate laundry areas, an upper-level sitting room or library, steel and glass floating staircases, an elevator, and a climate-controlled package delivery room further elevate the home’s livability and convenience.

The estate’s architectural details are equally impressive, featuring fireplaces wrapped in full slabs of stone, wood ceilings both indoors and outdoors, backlit stone slabs, wood flooring, and up to 25 automated doors. Lutron lighting and automated shade systems are integrated throughout, while Eggersmann cabinetry is scheduled for the kitchen, bar, and primary bedroom closets. Outdoor living is equally well-considered, with two covered ramadas featuring fire elements that extend entertaining and relaxation into the surrounding desert landscape.

Designed with efficiency and sustainability in mind, the home will operate on three-phase power, incorporate natural gas tankless water heaters, foam spray insulation throughout, a solar energy system, and a full backup generator, ensuring both performance and peace of mind.
