About this property
Family-Friendly Beautiful Private Wellness Retreat / Desert Oasis
Nestled on 5 acres in North Scottsdale, this custom-built hideaway, is surrounded by mountain views (including Pinnacle Peak), breathtaking sunsets, and a beautiful desert landscape. Quiet and private, yet convenient to Scottsdale attractions (15 minute drive or less to Barres-Jackson Auto Show, the Waste Management Open, and the Arabian Horse Shows), you will quickly fall in love with this uniquely-built gem. This property is approximately 2,100 sq. ft., with a renovated kitchen and appliances, a custom-built home bar, and is decorated to truly give voice into the character of the house. This 3-bedroom 2-bath home can comfortably sleep 10 (1 king bed, 1 queen bed, 2 sets of trundle bunk beds), which makes it ideal for kid/family vacations or just a weekend away with your friends! There are chickens on the property as well as a beautiful new koi pond! So whether you’re playing cornhole, board games, watching a movie on the 70” TV, or just simply relaxing on the cozy outdoor furniture, you are sure to enjoy this peaceful Arizona property! It is a great place to relax, read a book, have a drink and enjoy the AZ sun.
