Lovingly cared for by the same family for 50 years, this custom desert residence is a true legacy house, being offered for the first time in half a century. Located at the base of the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, the home is beautifully sited on a flat 1.03-acre lot, offering remarkable space, privacy and sweeping 360-degree mountain views. Designed to embrace its surroundings, this 3,060 sq ft, single-level floorplan offers 4 bedrooms, 3 baths and flexible living spaces, with windows framing the mountain views in nearly every direction. Sprawling Spanish-inspired architecture, adobe-hued slump block construction and arched windows give the home a distinctly Arizona presence, while decades of thoughtful improvements reflect extraordinary pride of ownership. Guests are welcomed into a circular paver drive that leads to the gated front courtyard. This property's electrical service was taken underground, which served to preserve and enhance the unobstructed setting, allowing the sweeping mountain views to take center stage. The interior is grounded in classic, enduring finishes, with oak wood laminate flooring, neutral tones and warm wood accents creating a cohesive flow between formal and casual spaces. Every detail from essential systems to refined finishes speaks to a commitment to both design and longevity. The family room opens to the kitchen and features a fireplace with electric insert, complemented by integrated bench seating, an oak mantel and sconce lighting. The living room is open to the formal formal dining room and offers additional space for entertaining. Walls of windows/doors, skylights and solar tubes draw natural light into the interiors, while plantation shutters and oak trim reinforce the home's distinctly Arizona character. A fully permitted bonus room overlooks the vast rear yard and adds flexible space, equally suited as an additional living area, home office, gym or playroom. Expanded and remodeled, the huge kitchen offers abundant oak cabinetry with trash/recycle pull-outs, coffee/appliance garage, built-in desk and a walk-in pantry.
