Welcome to an elevated desert retreat, where sweeping mountain views, privacy, and effortless entertaining come together across 3.59 acres. Perched on a hilltop, this 2,889 square foot home features a thoughtfully designed split bedroom floor plan with 4 spacious bedrooms, a den/flex space and 3 full baths. A charming gated courtyard creates a beautiful first impression, while fresh interior paint provides a crisp, refreshed backdrop throughout the home. The generous primary suite offers direct access to the patio, inviting you to step outside and take in the surrounding beauty at any moment. At the heart of the home, the open concept kitchen impresses with a large center island with breakfast bar, perfect for casual gatherings, and flows easily into the living spaces for more formal occasions. Every window seems to frame the surrounding desert beauty. The outdoor living experience is truly exceptional. A sparkling pool and spa are perfectly positioned to capture the extraordinary mountain vistas, creating a private setting for relaxing, entertaining, and enjoying Arizona sunsets. An expansive covered patio, lush turf, built-in fire pit with seating, and an official horseshoe pit make the grounds as functional as they are inviting.
Adding even more versatility is the detached Art Haus--an inspiring flex space with endless possibilities. Whether envisioned as a creative studio, private workspace, exercise room, hobby retreat, or additional storage, it offers the freedom to make the space uniquely your own. Rainwater harvesting barrels further complement the property's thoughtful desert lifestyle.
And the location is hard to beat. With no HOA, ample acreage, and convenient access to everyday amenities, this private haven also places you near the natural beauty of Mount Lemmon and Saguaro National Park East. A rare opportunity to enjoy expansive space, breathtaking views, resort-style amenities, and the freedom of acreage--all in one remarkable property.
