WHAT I LOVE ABOUT THIS HOME:
This home has so much privacy with stucco walls that do not adjoin your neighbor's property. This desirable corner lot is large, and the property location provides an abundance of parking for the owners in the oversized 4+ car garage, and for all of your guests on the large, flat driveway, under the porte-cochere in the front circle driveway and on the cul-de-sac street. The stately porte-cochere out front and the oversized wood front door create a very impressive entrance up to the house. It has mountain, city and dramatic sunset views that are even more spectacular from the large roof top deck accessible by a staircase from the back covered patio area. The entire back of the house has large windows that showcase the spacious resort style backyard that has a waterfall, a spa, a large pool with a diving board and tropical landscaping that is illuminated at night by the new landscape lights. The house has a large, open floor plan, with a three bar-stool wet bar in the family room that is everyone's favorite hangout in the house during a party. The dining room is adjacent to the large front foyer area which allows you to add an extra table to this room to host very large dinner parties during the holidays and for special occasions. The layout has a split bedrooms house plan with a secluded, very romantic, master suite with a luxurious jetted tub and large shower with two shower heads on one side of the house, and a kid's wing with three bedrooms and a large study/entertainment room on the other side. There is also an abundance of wall & built-in shelf space throughout the entire house for all of your favorite photos, prints and wall d??cor. The three indoor gas fireplaces and one outdoor gas fireplace are so cozy and provide just the right ambiance on cool Arizona winter nights. There is storage everywhere, including extra-large closets with shelves in the kid's area, office and garage, a pool closet in the backyard, and also storage cabinets in the garage. The west facing front of the house has extra thick insulated walls to keep cooling costs down, plantation style shutters on all of the street-side windows for added privacy, and automatic drop down shades on the back of the house for light/temperature control. The property has a very large flat driveway with an in-ground, adjustable height basketball hoop and the cul-de-sac location is invaluable when you need extra parking or a large play area for children safely away from traffic areas. The gated community is private and safe and the new stop light on 128th Street & Shea is loved by all of the residents that live in this quiet community. It is a short distance to grocery stores, schools, churches, and hospitals including the Mayo Clinic, hotels & resorts, colleges, restaurants, bike paths, hiking trails, freeways, sporting & cultural events, and entertainment areas. In addition to holding annual activities for the residents, this family-oriented, impeccably-maintained neighborhood of long-term, friendly residents has a tennis court with night lights, a park area with grass and a gazebo, and a play area for the little ones. All of your family members and friends will be amazed by this magnificent home. What's not to love about his home?
