Blending timeless Spanish Hacienda charm with modern livability, the 5,758 sq ft estate exudes character with clay tile rooflines, arched entries, and wood-beamed ceilings that reflect the enduring authenticity of Arizona architecture. With pocket doors opening to your own mountain backdrop, the home embraces a seamless indoor/outdoor lifestyle. Within its 5,758 sq ft footprint, the main residence offers 4,395 sq ft with 4 bedrooms plus an office and 4 baths, while a 1,463 sq ft private casita with 2 ensuite bedrooms, living room, kitchen, and laundry creates an ideal retreat for guests, family, and grandkids. Designed for both intimacy and entertaining, the property unfolds across a signature courtyard and multiple patios that extend to a sparkling pool, elevated spa, dramatic fire features, and lush desert landscaping… a true desert sanctuary. Embracing the new while honoring the past, this reimagined estate stands as one of North Scottsdale’s most captivating and charming home transformations.
