Description

This is the quintessential Arcadia home that every family dreams of owning. The sprawling ranch is loaded with character
and perfectly combines elegance and livability. The beautiful island kitchen has gorgeous custom cabinetry, great spaces to prep and serve and an adjacent sun-soaked breakfast room. The great room makes a bold statement, the den is a dream space for kids and adults alike, the formal dining room has a temperature-controlled wine room, and all of the bedrooms and custom baths are outstanding, including an exquisite
primary suite with its own office/exercise room and sitting area with a great looking exposed brick fireplace. French doors
surround the home and each open to another lovely covered or uncovered patio, and the grounds are absolutely magnificent with a phenomenal walk-up bar, firepit with room for 10, an
additional fireplace, sport court, bocce ball, fabulous pool and
spa, and absolutely breathtaking mountain views. This is a
dream home that calls for birthday parties, cocktail parties,
weddings, and all sorts of outdoor soirees, and it sits in the
back of a quiet cul-de-sac on a stunning lot. It's as warm as it is
sophisticated and as charming as it is grand, and it's a place
where every child would love to grow up and generations of
adults would love to enjoy!

    "There are a few hiking spots close by, there is a nice running trail that runs alongside the canal and Camelback Rd. Southwest Human Development makes its home here supporting early childhood for much of Maricopa County. There’s no shortage of businesses around here. This area borders the more well to do Arcadia and Biltmore neighborhoods as well as the more decidedly homeless and drugee scene that runs South of Thomas Rd. It’s a typical Phoenix neighborhood otherwise."
