Jump in a hot air balloon and come home to Sonoran Desert Oasis!

You too can slip away to this 4 bedroom, 3 bath custom home resting on one acre with views of the Sonoran Desert mountains. It’s that perfect time of year here in Phoenix, Arizona when the temps are just right for outdoor entertaining. Invite the neighbors over for a glass of wine by the salt water pool and admire the painted sky that turns into a kaleidoscope of pink, purple and blue as the sun sets.

Built in 2004 by Phil Smith Custom Homes with 2x6 lumber construction, Sonoran Desert Oasis was designed for an open layout with a split floorplan suitable for a retired couple with visiting kids and grandkids or a full time family. For the moms out there, it is notable to point out that in December of 2014, Deer Valley Unified School District celebrated an “A” profile letter grade for accountability and achievement from the Arizona Department of Education for the Fourth consecutive year, ranking them 1 of top 10 in Arizona.
This location was carefully chosen not only for the views, but for the peace and quiet of the high desert while still being accessible to stores, shopping and restaurants and convenient location to major freeways and Phoenix Sky Harbor International Airport.

A new Fry’s Marketplace is planned to open next to HonorHealth Fall 2016. You’re within a 20-30 minute drive to Scottsdale, Cave Creek, Glendale or Peoria. For those who enjoy weekend trips, you would be within a couple hour drive to Northern Arizona for cooler weather in the summer, camping, wine tasting, snow skiing, hiking in Sedona, or more lakes! Head west on Carefree Highway to Las Vegas about a 4-5 hour drive. Living here feels like you’re miles from town surrounded by wildlife, changing landscape, hiking trails and an ever changing view. Experience community with the surrounding neighbors who go walking together and have frequent social gatherings at each other’s homes.
If you’re a lover of water, you’re within a 30 minute drive to Lake Pleasant. Enjoy a casual dinner at the Waterfront Bar & Grille with breathtaking views and live music! Lake Pleasant is a power boater's dream. As the largest lake in the Phoenix and Scottsdale area, load-up all your water recreation toys. Its pristine waters cover over 10,000 acres of water surface with 116 miles of shoreline. The average depth is 70- feet and the deepest point of 260 feet is at the dam. This home even has a 4-car insulated garage with plenty of room to expand and an Iron RV gate on the east side of the property if someone wanted to repurpose that area to accommodate recreational toys. Currently, inside the RV Gate you’ll find fruit trees and an artistic colorful xeriscape designed to match the colors of the sunrise and sunset.
