Overview
Description
Elevated luxury in a private desert sanctuary. This home features 5,000 sq. ft. on the main living level, and a walk-out basement of 2,315 sq. ft. Total square footage under roof is 7,315 sq. ft. Nestled on an expansive 1.1-acre lot that borders a protected natural wash and pristine desert preserve. This 7,315-square-foot estate offers a rare master class in elegance and privacy.
This home features 5 bedrooms, each with its own ensuite bathroom, and 2 separate half bathrooms. The heart of the home is a gourmet chef's kitchen, where functionality meets timeless craftsmanship. Fantastic home for entertaining with plenty of space for guests.
The lower level could easily accommodate out-of-town visitors or even serve as a multi-generational living area. Rich alder cabinetry and expansive granite countertops are complemented by professional-grade stainless steel appliances, creating an environment that is as practical as it is beautiful. Adjacent to the culinary space, a private wine cellar awaits the connoisseur's collection.
With five generous bedrooms and six-and-a-half bathrooms, the floor plan is meticulously scaled to provide every resident with a sense of sanctuary and sophistication. Transitioning to the lower level reveals a walk-out basement designed as a comprehensive entertainment destination. This light-filled space features a state-of-the-art media room, a dedicated exercise suite, and a stylish lounge area perfect for hosting guests.
The glass doors disappear to reveal a resort-caliber backyard oasis, where a shimmering pool and heated spa overlook the desert floor. Whether you are enjoying a quiet morning watching the local wildlife in the preserve or hosting a sunset soirée against the city skyline, this property represents the pinnacle of luxury living.
