What's special
Private Hillside Estate with Panoramic Mummy Mountain & City Light Views! Perched atop prestigious Cheney Drive, this custom-designed estate commands a premier hillside setting with sweeping views of Mummy Mountain to the west and sparkling city lights to the east. The 6,772-square-foot main residence offers four bedrooms, five baths, a dedicated office and meditation room (which can be converted back into a bedroom), with a thoughtfully designed floor plan that captures the surrounding views through expansive windows and long sightlines. Crafted by Ram Development, the home showcases distinctive architectural details including plaster domed ceilings, a wine room, library with hickory floors and private entrance, and a versatile exercise or art studio. The spacious primary suite features both separate his-and-her marble bath areas, and closets creating a private retreat within the home. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a pool, ramada and fireplace surrounded by mature specimen trees and natural desert landscaping. A rare opportunity to refresh and reimagine an architecturally significant residence or create something entirely new on an exceptional Paradise Valley hillside lot with extraordinary views.
