An incomparable, custom 5,287 square foot Spanish sanctuary awaits you in Paradise Valley's Camelback Country Club Estates. Embodying style, authenticity and comfort, this outstanding legacy residence is sited on a 1.014 acre cul-de-sac lot. The location is just minutes away from world-class dining, shopping and recreation. From the moment you arrive at the gated courtyard entry, you immediately feel the character and craftsmanship of this exceptional residence. There is a special, rarefied quality here. Step into a dynamic home, where the preservation of the iconic Spanish architecture and the enhancement of key home systems make this home an extraordinary find. The entrance is undeniably grand with wrought iron gates that bring you into the 2,800 square foot wrap-around courtyard—the perfect place for conversation and connection. The privacy is enhanced by a 5' courtyard wall that envelopes the space. The 150' driveway was installed in 2019 and leads to a 1,092 square foot 3-car garage with a level 2 electric vehicle charger. Understated landscaping design out front mindfully utilizes native plants and majestic desert-adapted tree canopies to create harmony with the Sonoran desert surroundings. The home unfolds first into the family room, which is an inviting central gathering space. Nurturing an elevated indoor/outdoor connection, the mid-century modern window wall frames the pool and the rear yard with 2 new oversized dual pane sliding glass doors ('16) and splendid clerestory windows. Spanish modern details continue with vaulted beamed ceilings, Saltillo tile floors and a magnificent renovated fireplace. A separate living room highlights an arched fireplace adorned with brick accents and full wall bench seating. The luxe kitchen features classic finishes including rich wood cabinetry, granite counters, herringbone tiled backsplash and high-end stainless steel appliances. Settle in and savor meals made with the Thermador 6-burner gas cooktop with a grill and double Thermador wall ovens. The kitchen stands ready to facilitate every day cooking or lavish parties with ample counter space and central prep island. The home offers both formal and casual dining spaces, as well as romantic outdoor dining destinations. A formal dining room is located off the kitchen with French doors that open to the walled courtyard for the ultimate indoor/outdoor dining experience. Main Residence: 4 Bed + 4 Bath. The primary suite is a private and peaceful retreat with an ensuite bath, beehive fireplace, updated engineered hardwood floors, walk-in closet and French doors that open to its own private courtyard. The main residence's 4 bedrooms all have ensuite baths and walk-in closets. The library/office could function as a 5th bedroom in the main house (has a closet). Casita: 1 Bed, 1 Bath. The attached 536 square foot casita ensures comfort and privacy for family or guests. The space is large enough to accommodate an open living space off the bedroom. The positioning of the casita allows panoramic views of the epic rear yard through the sliding glass door, which has plantation shutters for privacy. Ideal for long-term guests, extended family, studio or home office with a ¾ bath, mini split AC and ample room to add a kitchen. Whether you are looking for rest + relaxation or amenities for celebration + hosting, the rear yard promises endless hours of enjoyment. The panoramic mountain views are always on display, but your focus will be on the curated landscape design centered around a large resurfaced diving pool with paver-lined sunbathing deck. Delight in the shade of the 600 square foot modern poolside cabana, as well as the expansive rear covered patio and tree-shaded courtyards. Canopies from carob, olive, grapefruit, orange, blood orange, Meyer lemon and many other desert-adapted trees create both shade and privacy. Palm trees dot the property to let you know you are, in fact, in paradise. Plenty of yard remains to create additional living or recreational spaces. The inspirational grounds are just as magnificent as the house. This exceptional home has many notable features include OWNED (21.2 kw) solar array '16, EV charger, new roof '15, updated electrical panel '16, new garage door openers '15, whole house water softener '17, new tankless water heaters '17 + '21, new exterior paint '17, 2 new 5-ton HVAC units + Ecobee smart thermostats '21, new mini split in casita '17 and new reverse osmosis '22.
