About this home

Escape the ordinary and settle into something that feels a little more like a private resort than a house. Positioned on 60th Street at the border of Phoenix and Scottsdale, this meticulously maintained estate sits directly along the prestigious Arizona Country Club, one of the Valley's most established private golf clubs with a history dating back to 1909. The club has hosted generations of Arizona golf history and has welcomed some of the game's biggest names, including Arnold Palmer, Jack Nicklaus and Gary Player. Owned and cared for by the same owner for 34 years, this property has been exceptionally maintained with zero deferred maintenance and an attention to quality that is becoming increasingly difficult to find. The home offers a rare combination of privacy, craftsmanship and location, with a private pool overlooking the golf course and no HOA or POA restrictions. One of the most distinctive features is something you may not notice at first glance. This is one of only a handful of homes along Arizona Country Club with underground utility lines, eliminating the clutter of overhead wires and creating clean, unobstructed views across the property and golf course. Sometimes the best feature is the one that isn't hanging in your face. Enter through a handmade mesquite wood door crafted by Craftsmen in Wood, complete with the maker's logo branded into the hinge. Inside, Turkish travertine and hardwood flooring meet exposed wood beam ceilings, gas fireplaces and exceptional finishes throughout. Sierra Pacific doors and windows provide premium insulation and quiet, while the private office features custom built in cabinetry by Classy Closets. The owner's bathroom includes a Kohler jet tub and dedicated steam shower. The home's outdoor living is equally impressive. A remarkably private front courtyard welcomes you with a tranquil water feature and an infrared grill station complete with sink and refrigerator, creating an effortless setting for entertaining or quietly enjoying an Arizona evening. The extensive grounds are finished with four inch natural stone from Stone World, hand chiseled onsite and masterfully laid throughout the courtyard, archways and outdoor seating areas. The result is timeless, substantial and completely at home in the Arizona desert. A detached casita offers separate access and a full bathroom, making it ideal for guests, extended family, a private office or additional storage space. The oversized climate controlled main garage is fully insulated and can accommodate up to four cars tandem with custom garage doors by Superstition Garage Doors. And then there is the location. Arizona Country Club is a private, well established club with deep roots in Arizona golf history. Just beyond the fairways, Scottsdale begins. Fashion Square, exceptional dining and some of the best nightlife and entertainment in Scottsdale are only minutes away. Hiking Camelback Mountain can be a daily habit with trailhead parking a short drive away. You get the quiet of a private golf course setting without giving up the restaurants, shopping and energy that make Scottsdale one of the Southwest's most desirable destinations. Views of Camelback Mountain from the back yard and the Papago Buttes are the cherries on top! A rare property in a rare location, with the kind of privacy, craftsmanship and history that doesn't come along very often. No wires overhead. No HOA. No deferred maintenance. Just a beautifully cared for estate sitting quietly between Phoenix and Scottsdale, with a golf course for a backyard, an entertainers dream like front courtyard, and a whole lot of rich Arizona history outside the gate.
