The Most Expensive Home sold in Arizona last week - 2/23/16

By
Real Estate Broker/Owner with Zion Realty

Our last post highlighting the most expensive home that sold in Arizona found us in the mountains of Flagstaff, however, last week's most expensive home that sold in Arizona has us traveling back down to the desert floor. Located in Phoenix, this multi-million dollar luxury home is reminiscent of a fairytale cottage. Nestled at the base of Phoenix's famous Camelback Mountain the new owners will awaken each morning to the feeling of living in the European countryside. The exterior grounds are vast and lush. Brick patios and walkways lead you to sprawling green open spaces, organic herb, vegetable, and rose gardens, a simple yet crisp and clear diving pool, putting green, and sport court. Tall and mature trees will provide plenty of reprieve from the hot Summer days. 

There was also no expense spared on the interior of this magnificent residence. Vaulted ceilings combined with custom curved exposed wooden beams adds a design element not often seen. Exclusive, hand-crafted iron stair railings add a rustic yet artistic touch. The kitchen and living spaces are simple but still elegant. There is of course the typical added amenities that accompany a home of this magnitude such as a private wine room, richly appointed home office, exercise room, and game room complete with an eat-in bar area. When you combine all of the outstanding features of this high-end property it's clear why it only took three months on the open market before it was snatched up by a savvy buyer who knew this home was a sparkling gem. Click on the picture below for the full MLS listing:

Location: Phoenix

Size: 8,332 sqft

Bedrooms: 6

Bathrooms: 7.5

Lot size: 46,722 sqft

Good morning Nicole Doty - Gilbert Real Estate Expert  I hope that was your sale, but if it wasn't, I'm sure the buyer now realizes he/she would have been wise to have called you for guidance with that purchase....

Hi Nicole - that home really does not look like it is in Phoenix.  It is one beautiful estate.

Hi Nicole - This one is a beauty, and very interesting, in that there's no clue within the grounds that this is a desert home.

So many bathrooms to clean but then again the owner is probably not the one doing it. Thanks for the share.
