Description
Discover elevated desert living in this extraordinary estate perched atop Mummy Mountain, artfully designed and constructed by Salcito Custom Homes. Perfectly positioned on 1.5 acres in the prestigious guard-gated community of La Place du Sommet, this hillside residence offers commanding, unobstructed views of the McDowell Mountains, Four Peaks, Superstition Mountains, and the shimmering city lights below. The home is a seamless expression of craftsmanship and architectural elegance, where rich wood, copper, stone, and glass combine to create a warm, modern aesthetic that feels both refined and timeless. Every room in the home provides sweeping panoramic vistas or an intimate view of the rugged and raw beauty of the mountainside. Elegant living and entertaining spaces are found throughout the residence. The formal living room features a fireplace and wet bar, while the adjacent dining room offers floor to ceiling windows that frame the ever-changing canvas of the desert mountain landscape. A second living area offers access to a spacious balcony that’s ideal for al fresco gatherings and opens to the gourmet kitchen which is outfitted with Viking and SubZero appliances and anchored with rich custom wood cabinetry accented with copper. The stunning mahogany library doubles as a sophisticated office, complete with a fireplace and a floor-to-ceiling stained glass pocket door and floor-to-ceiling windows to bring the outdoors in. A soundproof theater room is the ideal setting for immersive entertainment. The custom subterranean wine cellar with natural rock walls, barrel vaulted ceiling and a marble wet bar adds to the home’s rich offering of amenities. This estate offers five bedrooms and five-and-a-half baths, with four bedrooms featuring ensuite baths – three of which open to private balconies. The primary suite is a serene retreat with its own sitting area, fireplace, private patio, and a luxurious bath featuring dual vanities, a walk-in shower, and a stand alone tub – all designed to soak in the surrounding views. Built thoughtfully into Mummy Mountain, the exterior spaces are no less remarkable. Multi-level terraces, a built-in BBQ, and an infinity-edge spool are set against dramatic desert rock formations, creating an awe-inspiring backdrop for everyday living or grand entertaining. The estate also features a temperature-controlled three-car garage with EV charging, ELEVATOR access to the main living spaces and five fireplaces. Located just minutes from the Ritz-Carlton Resort, upscale shopping, premier golf, and world-class dining, and within easy access of both public and private airports, this estate is more than a home – it’s an exceptional lifestyle. Rarely does a residence of this caliber, built by one of Arizona’s most distinguished custom homebuilders and positioned on one of the highest home sites in Paradise Valley, become available.
