Description

Located in the heart of Pima Canyon Estates, this traditional Southwestern home is designed to harmonize with the desert landscape, blending architectural form defined by stucco volumes, accented by natural stone cladding that anchors the home to its high desert surroundings. Deep roof overhangs provide both visual interest and practical shading, with North/South orientation reducing thermal gain while maintaining expansive, unobstructed views of the Catalina Mountains. Native plantings surround the structure, offering a visually compelling and low-maintenance environment, while enhancing the home's connection to its surroundings.

Approaching the residence, the motor court is both functional and discreet, bordered by native mesquite trees and desert shrubs, which offer privacy without sacrificing the home's subtle elegance. The entry courtyard is served by a porte-cochère, creating a transitional threshold between the exterior and interior living spaces. Carefully positioned walkways of exposed concrete quietly reference the natural textures of the landscape, setting the tone for the interior experience, while guiding visitors toward the custom steel and glass entry door.

Upon entry, the home's layout is organized around a central axis, emphasizing flow and sightlines that connect key living spaces to the exterior. Soaring ceilings accentuate scale, while large expanses of low-emissivity glass provide natural light without compromising energy efficiency. The interior finishes are refined yet restrained, with Travertine floors that float seamlessly throughout the space, juxtaposed against soft wall accents and materialsselected for their tactile qualities and timeless appeal.

The kitchen exemplifies form and function, with custom cabinetry providing a warm backdrop to the space. Granite countertops and a seamless integrated backsplash offer visually uninterrupted surfaces, while high-end appliances are celebrated through thoughtful integration. A central island, topped with natural stone, serves as both a functional workspace and an informal gathering point, reflecting the kitchen's dual role as a culinary and social hub. Soft, indirect lighting enhances the material finishes without overwhelming the space.

The primary suite is designed as a private retreat, positioned to capture sweeping views of the Catalina Mountains, while ensuring the utmost privacy. The bedroom's proportions are generous, with floor-to-ceiling windows that blur the line between interior and exterior. In the en-suite bath, spa-like amenities are incorporated with a traditional aesthetic, featuring dual custom vanities, walk-in shower enclosure, and a freestanding soaking tub. The bathroom's design promotes tranquility through the use of natural materials, and a thoughtful layout that prioritizes the home's occupants.

One of the property's many on-site amenities includes a fully integrated and privately owned electric solar system, representing a forward-thinking approach to energy efficiency and sustainability, while also reducing the home's operational costs.

The exterior spaces are as meticulously crafted as the interior, with the pool area offering a seamless continuation of the home's architectural narrative. An integrated pool and elevated spa reflects its surroundings, creating a visual connection to the distant mountains, while the adjacent terrace provides shaded outdoor living spaces through the use of deep cantilevers. Low-profile landscaping complements the architecture without competing with the panoramic vistas of the Catalina Mountains, which serve as a breathtaking natural backdrop. Discreet lighting enhances the space at night, allowing the views and architecture to remain the focal points for one to enjoy the Arizona Lifestyle.
