Property Description
Located behind the private secondary gates of Pima Gardens in Pima Canyon, this architecturally refined desert estate offers privacy, scale, and exceptional design. The property spans 6,631 Sq Ft, including a 5,667 Sq Ft main residence and a 939 Sq Ft detached guest house. A gated courtyard entry with Cantera stone water feature leads to a dramatic foyer with travertine floors, birch-paneled ceilings, and knotty alder beams. The home is thoughtfully laid out to maximize natural light and capture views of the Catalina Mountains and surrounding desert landscape. The formal living room features expansive glass walls, creating a seamless indoor outdoor connection. A climate controlled wine gallery with approximately 900 bottle capacity and an adjacent dining area open directly to outdoor terraces, ideal for entertaining. At the center of the residence, the chef's kitchen features dual islands, imported custom cabinetry, granite countertops, and professional grade appliances, opening to an inviting informal living space with a Cantera stone fireplace. A breakfast nook connects to its own private patio overlooking rock outcroppings, and saguaro-studded terrain. Additional highlights include a dedicated theater designed for an elevated cinematic experience. The primary suite is privately positioned within the west wing and offers a true retreat, featuring custom alder and birch ceiling details, a two way fireplace, a sitting room, and direct access to a private terrace with sweeping desert views. Additional en-suite bedrooms continue the home's consistent level of craftsmanship and finish. The detached guest house provides full independence with its own kitchen, living area, fireplace, and private terrace, ideal for extended guests or multi-generational living. Outdoor living is exceptional, with expansive Cantera verandas, an outdoor chef's kitchen, multiple courtyards, and 20 foot sliding glass walls that fully retract to create true indoor outdoor flow. The negative edge pool and spa integrate into a one of a kind Cantera water feature with handmade stone spheres and cascading water elements. A lower level turf area adds functional green space for play or gatherings, surrounded by mature desert landscaping and specimen plantings.
