Perched on an elevated homesite, this exceptional 1+ acre lot captures everything buyers seek in a premier hillside setting: perspective, privacy, and a truly unforgettable backdrop.
Located at the base of South Mountain Preserve - the largest municipal park in the world - this property places over 25 square miles of pristine Sonoran Desert right outside your door. Backing directly to the Mormon Trail and bordering preserve land on three sides, the lot offers a rare sense of permanence and protection, ensuring your views and natural surroundings remain intact. **click more** Step outside to hike, mountain bike, or ride directly into the preserve, creating a seamless connection between home and nature. Yet, convenience is never compromised. Just minutes from Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport, Arizona State University, and Downtown Phoenix, you'll enjoy quick access to the entire Valley while living in a quiet, desert retreat.
Rare opportunity to bypass the most time-consuming phase of development--the seller has advanced the hillside approval process to near completion, providing a valuable head start toward building. This property is also cross listed with a separate offering featuring architecturally significant renderings by the current architect/builder.
Build your custom home on a homesite that offers a rare combination of elevated views, protected surroundings, and central location - where the beauty of the desert meets the energy of the city. This is Arizona living at its finest.
