Splendid Mediterranean estate home in Desert Mountain's prestigeous Saguaro Forest Village. On a ridge overlooking Chirircahua golf course, mountains and Valley. First time ever available, embrace a unique opportunity to own this treasure AND a golf membership now! Offered stunningly furnished, with accessories and art curated from world travels. The first level includes the great room with Gatsby bar, oval dining room, chef's kitchen, cozy media room, handsome two-story library, two executive offices, a private two-room guest suite/casita and a most elegant primary retreat with its own entry vestibule, curved view balcony and finely
appointed spa bath with double closets. The lower level is accessed by a custom elevator and two stunning staircases offering the following amenities... A meditation area, wine cellar, tasting area, and full
spa with steam shower, plunge pool and exercise room. All leading to a hidden Zen garden and access to the pool deck.
An award-winning team, all "Masters of the Southwest," worked collaboratively to create this masterpiece: UDA Design (Lee Hutchison), Jim Manship Builders, Ashley P Design (Paula DenBoer) and Enchanted Gardens (Donna Winters.) No expense was spared in selecting the finest amenities of stone, cabinetry, Venetian plaster, moldings and finish carpentry, fixtures and hardware, lighting, electronics and landscaping.
Enter the private gated courtyard revealing an enchanted Japanese garden, and traverse the arched Japanese bridge that spans a meandering Koi pond and leads to the stunning beveled
glass entry. Gas lanterns along the way create a magical setting.
The great room offers immediate panoramic views, framed by an artfully coffered ceiling and an expansive wall of windows that span the entire view. A limestone hearth and elegant Gatsby-
style bar anchor this dramatic space. There is direct access to the expansive curved veranda styled patio with multiple seating and dining areas, hearth, sunning deck and outdoor
kitchen, all beautifully landscaped and overlooking the resort pool, spa, ancient saguaros, a golf fairway and huge Valley vistas.
The elegant oval dining room boasts high, coved ceilings, enhanced by Venetian blown glass chandeliers & sconces and floor to ceiling Italian silk window treatments. Dine in a serene setting
overlooking the Japanese gardens and Koi ponds.
The kitchen is a culinary delight with luxurious stone and cabinet selections, Wolf appliance package, a large sit-up island, breakfast dining room with hearth area, large walk-in pantry and morning patio dining overlooking the Koi pond. An additional powder room is convenient to this area.
The South Wing houses the primary bedroom, media room, two offices, powder room and the world-class library. It is announced by a rotunda with intricate flooring, vaulted ceilings and Eastern
inspired light fixtures. The dramatic gallery-style vestibule leading to the primary retreat is lighted with a series of elegant lantern-style pendants creating a mystical mood. The plush and cozy media room offers comfortable living room-style seating. The two executive offices, each with views, are outfitted with handsome built-in cabinetry and bookshelves. A dramatic two-story winding staircase joins the upper level of the library with the heart of the library on the lower level boasting a soaring hearth and the most inviting and relaxing reading environment. Both levels are enveloped by floor-to-ceiling custom bookshelves. A two-room guest suite completes this first level wing and offers a generous living room, kitchen bar and king bedroom.
The lower level is accessed by a curved staircase from the great room, the circular library staircase and a custom elevator just off the great room. In addition to the library, a handsome wine cellar and tasting area are just beyond. At the north end of the lower level are a steam room & shower, cold plunge pool, third powder room and a large exercise room with kitchen bar. All leading to a private Zen garden with its own water feature, and convenient access to the pool patio and spectacular veranda.
