Property Description

Situated on a generous 15,000 square foot lot within the gated community of Ventana Foothills (Sonoran Arroyos), this custom single-level residence offers a blend of comfort, privacy, and timeless design. Backing to a wash, the home enjoys a private setting complemented by mature landscaping and exceptional outdoor living. A welcoming presence begins with strong curb appeal and a stately double front entry door, framed by custom leaded glass. Inside, expansive windows fill the home with natural light, highlighting travertine flooring, plantation shutters, and thoughtfully selected designer lighting throughout. The formal living and dining rooms offer elegant entertaining spaces. The well-appointed kitchen is designed for both function and gathering featuring granite countertops, a large island with bar seating, a walk-in pantry, stainless steel GE Monogram appliances including a 5-burner gas cooktop, and a casual breakfast area that overlooks the backyard. The kitchen flows seamlessly into the family room, complete with a fireplace and a built-in wet bar with a wine refrigerator. The home has 5 bedrooms and 4 full bathrooms including a spacious primary suite offering a cozy gas fireplace, a French door to the back patio, and a luxurious ensuite with a jetted soaking tub, custom shower, dual vanities, and an expansive walk-in closet. A guest suite on the opposite wing of the house provides privacy for guests, while its ensuite bathroom offers direct outdoor access, ideal for use as a pool bath. Outdoor living is equally impressive, with a wraparound covered patio with drop down sunscreens and a custom bar with a countertop fire table. The resort-style backyard showcases a sparkling pool with boulder waterfall, spa, outdoor fireplace with seating area, built-in barbecue, lush lawn, and citrus trees--creating a private retreat perfect for year-round enjoyment. Additional features include a 3-car garage with a spacious storage room, central vacuum system, and a generously sized laundry room with abundant cabinetry and countertop workspace, and direct access to the backyard. Situated next door to Ancala Country Club, this neighborhood offers convenient access to top-rated Scottsdale schools, Basis, Mayo Clinic's Scottsdale campus, hiking trails including Lost Dog Trail and Sunrise Trail, as well as premier shopping, dining, and the Loop 101 freeway.
