Property Description

Introducing an extraordinary and rare opportunity to own a fully remodeled masterpiece on a prime lot with complete privacy. Thoughtfully positioned, flanked by two open washes, one to the rear, one to the east, this stunning Scottsdale residence offers the ultimate privacy and is paired with sweeping city light views on a North-South lot. Inside, a full, recent renovation with designer-level finishes elevates every inch of this 5-bedroom home. The open, livable floor plan features new designer lighting throughout, rich white oak hardwood floors, and new retracting doors that flow from the living room directly into the resort-like backyard, creating a seamless indoor/outdoor lifestyle. The chef's kitchen is a showpiece in its own right, anchored by expansive custom designer cabinetry, Taj Mahal countertops, an oversized island and top of the line appliances. The spacious primary bedroom opens through retractable doors to the back yard. The spa-like primary bathroom features a large steam shower, soaking tub, double-sink vanity with premium mirror lighting, and a generous walk-in closet. Outside, the resort-style, ultra-private backyard delivers a pool, fire feature, and an oversized grill area; the kind of space designed for both quiet evenings and unforgettable gatherings. The location is simply unmatched, just steps from Lost Dog Wash trail head, Mountainside Middle School, and Desert Mountain High School, two of Scottsdale's most sought-after schools.
