Property Description
A dramatic covered portico with soaring arches welcomes you to this custom estate, framing spectacular mountain vistas before you even enter. Step through the grand arched entry with custom leaded glass into a home where sophistication meets warmth at every turn. Italian tile flows seamlessly throughout the single-level floor plan, while barrel vault ceilings adorned with dramatic exposed wood beams, architectural arched doorways, and elegant tray details create a sense of timeless luxury. The great room's soaring barrel ceiling and walls of Pella French doors dissolve boundaries between interior refinement and the spectacular Sonoran landscape beyond, where native birds and wildlife animate the mature desert gardens.
Professional-grade amenities define this culinary masterpiece: double ovens, wine refrigerator, ice maker, dual sinks including a convenient prep sink, and sophisticated induction-top island crowned with rich granite countertops. Ten feet of cupboards line the wall to the dedicated laundry room providing ample pantry space. The genius lies in the layout - seamlessly connecting the kitchen to a sun-drenched breakfast nook and formal dining room. Holiday gatherings and intimate dinners alike flow effortlessly here.
The thoughtful split floor plan features a separate guest wing, providing true privacy and comfort for visiting family and friends. Two windowed offices with saguaro-painted mountain views create inspiring workspaces - one with captivating pool vistas and a custom wet bar, blending productivity with sophisticated entertaining.
This exceptional 4-bedroom, 4-bathroom home features two luxurious primary suites, each with private baths. The owner's sanctuary is breathtaking with vaulted wood-planked ceilings and exposed beams soaring overhead, while expansive windows frame the commanding Catalinas. The spa-inspired ensuite places a luxurious jetted tub beneath picture windows capturing those iconic mountain vistas, complemented by three vanities, oversized walk-in shower, dual walk-in closets, and a private office with custom wet bar.
The outdoor space is simply extraordinary. An expansive covered back patio spans the home's length, creating multiple living zones perfect for watching desert sunsets transform across the foothills. The built-in BBQ center anchors the al fresco dining experience. The showstopper: a stunning free-form pool (professionally resurfaced with premium pebble tech in 2024) featuring a new Baja shelf for lounging and a cascading waterfall from the elevated spa. Natural boulder accents create seamless integration with the landscape, while mature palms and desert trees provide habitat for an array of native wildlife. The landscaping celebrates Sonoran beauty while remaining remarkably low-maintenance.
Recent investments include a brand new 2025 roof and the 2024 pool resurfacing. The large 3-car garage features professional-grade epoxy flooring and substantial additional storage. Quality Pella windows throughout frame those spectacular vistas from every angle. The efficient 3-zone HVAC system ensures optimal comfort throughout the home. District 16 schools. Alta Vista's prestigious address offers the perfect balance: privacy and serenity with convenient access to premier shopping, dining, recreation, and the legendary hiking trails of Ventana and Sabino Canyons.
Properties of this caliber - combining commanding mountain views, single-level luxury, split floor plan design, and meticulous maintenance - rarely become available. This isn't just a residence; it's a statement, a sanctuary, and the opportunity to own one of Southern Arizona's most spectacular estates.
