Overview
Description
Nestled on nearly 8 pristine acres in North Scottsdale, this exceptional equestrian estate offers a rare blend of luxury living, privacy, and true ride-out desert access. Bordering scenic riding trails, horse enthusiasts can saddle up and ride directly from the property into the surrounding Sonoran Desert landscape without trailering. A long, freshly paved private drive leads to the beautifully updated residence, where timeless architecture meets modern comfort across 4,402 square feet of thoughtfully designed living space. The home features dual primary suites, expansive entertaining areas, fresh interior paint, a new roof, and seamless indoor-outdoor living designed to embrace Arizona's year-round lifestyle. The resort-style grounds are framed by mature desert landscaping, a gated courtyard entry, and multiple outdoor living spaces that create a peaceful estate setting with exceptional privacy and mountain views. Designed with both functionality and elegance in mind, the property also includes an oversized 4-car garage and additional guest/living quarters.
Equestrian amenities are equally impressive, featuring a 6-stall barn, tack facilities, arenas, and ample space for training, riding, and enjoying the equestrian lifestyle at home. Whether you are seeking a private desert retreat, a premier horse property, or a luxury estate with direct trail access, this one-of-a-kind North Scottsdale property delivers the very best of Arizona living just minutes from world-class dining, golf, and shopping.
