Meticulously maintained and lightly lived in, this exceptional single-level Santa Fe Contemporary by Lovato Custom Homes blends timeless architecture with effortless indoor-outdoor living. Enter through a private front courtyard featuring a dramatic beehive fireplace, built-in seating, and breathtaking sunset views -- the perfect setting for quiet evenings or gathering with friends. Inside, the home opens to a stunning grand room with a 10-foot wall of disappearing glass that frames a bullseye view of Pinnacle Peak and the McDowell Mountains. The desirable southeast orientation fills the home with natural light throughout the day. A striking oversized natural stone hearth anchors the living space, creating a warm and inviting focal point. The chef's kitchen is thoughtfully designed for both everyday living and entertaining, complemented by a bar and butler's pantry. The adjacent family room opens to a sunset patio, seamlessly extending the living space outdoors.
A standout feature is the spacious private casita, offering a large bathroom, its own closet, and a convenient kitchenette. With a separate entrance, it captures the same scenic views and enjoys direct access to the courtyard -- ideal for guests, multigenerational living, or a more private work-from-home setup.
The formal dining room, with dual French doors to the courtyard, offers elegance and intimacy. The private primary suite is anchored by a striking dual-sided kiva fireplace that reflects authentic Santa Fe craftsmanship. Whether enjoyed from the bedroom or the adjacent sitting area, the fireplace adds an intimate, resort-like ambiance, especially on cool desert evenings. Coupled with the spa-inspired bath and an attached exercise room / office, it feels like a versatile retreat within the home.
Additional highlights include travertine and hardwood flooring, refined finishes throughout, and an overall sense of quality craftsmanship. A Control4 comprehensive smart home automation system unifies lighting, audio, and video into an easy-to-use interface managed via a single app and touchscreens.
Recent enhancements elevate the outdoor living experience even further, including a newly added lush grass area, updated landscaping, and a custom Twin Eagles BBQ island -- ideal for Arizona evenings and effortless entertaining.
This is desert living at its finest: private, polished, and perfectly positioned to capture iconic mountain views.
