Situated on well over an acre in the heart of Paradise Valley, this stunning Santa Barbara Revival estate offers more than 8,500 square feet of luxurious living space thoughtfully designed for both everyday comfort and exceptional entertaining. Recently constructed, the home features five spacious ensuite bedrooms along with a teen room, private office, den, flex room, and an expansive basement complete with built-ins and abundant storage. A spacious five car garage and gated autocourt provide both convenience and privacy, while dramatic mountain views can be enjoyed from both the front and back of the home. From the moment you step inside, the home’s architectural character is immediately apparent. Beautiful Douglas Fir beams extend throughout the grand entry and main living spaces, adding warmth and timeless elegance. The residence was designed with entertaining in mind, highlighted by a custom wine room with striking cottonwood split stone accents and a sleek glass sliding door. Just steps away, the butler’s pantry includes a sink, generous storage, and a built-in Miele coffee system, making hosting seamless. Additional design upgrades can be found throughout the home, including wide plank white oak flooring, custom cabinetry, Control4 whole home automation, and a sleek custom window and door package that enhances the home’s clean architectural lines. At the center of the home, the gourmet kitchen blends beauty with functionality. A six burner Wolf range anchors the space, complemented by waterfall edge countertops and premium finishes throughout. The kitchen flows naturally into the surrounding living areas, creating an inviting space for gatherings both large and small. The owner’s suite serves as a private retreat, complete with a cozy fireplace and tranquil views of a serene fountain located just outside the spa inspired primary bath. The space is designed to feel calm, comfortable, and restorative. Outside, the property transforms into a true resort style setting. A large covered patio overlooks the pool and spa, while the outdoor kitchen and dedicated dining space create the perfect environment for entertaining. The multi use sport court accommodates basketball, pickleball, and volleyball, and the outdoor BBQ entertainment center allows guests to gather and enjoy evening games under custom landscape lighting. More than $200,000 in upgraded landscaping enhances the outdoor experience. Mature trees, expansive turf areas, striking desert plantings, a beautiful saguaro, and productive lemon trees combine to create a private and inviting oasis that reflects the beauty of the surrounding desert landscape. Located in a charming Paradise Valley neighborhood where many homes have been recently built or thoughtfully renovated, this exceptional estate also offers convenient access to some of the area’s best amenities. World class shopping, dining, and outdoor recreation are all nearby, including hiking at Camelback Mountain and Piestewa Peak. The result is a home that offers both luxury and lifestyle in one of the most desirable locations in the Valley.
