Description

Commanding views define this iconic estate, set on one of the most coveted hilltops in Northwest Phoenix. Nestled on 2.5 private acres and known throughout the area as ''The House on the Hill,'' it towers above prestigious Saddle View Estates, offering exceptional privacy, prestige, and presence. The views stretch from the mountains of Peoria and Glendale to the downtown Phoenix skyline. Recently renovated and move-in ready, this home features soaring vaulted ceilings, a dramatic new fireplace, and an open-concept design that showcases spectacular mountain, desert, and city-light views from nearly every room. The luxurious primary retreat overlooks Thunderbird Conservation Park, Ludden Mountain, and the Sonoran Mountain Ranch, while the primary bath captures stunning mountain vistas.

Supplements: The kitchen frames views of a private luscious yard, mature palms and saguaros, and natural rock outcroppings. A resort-style pool, spa, and expansive patio create the ultimate setting for entertaining or quiet relaxation amid the beauty of the Sonoran Desert.
