About this home
Positioned in one of North Phoenix's most coveted foothill enclaves, this view-filled mountainside residence offers the very best of the ''Sheaborhood'' just beyond your front door. Thoughtfully updated with an enduring desert aesthetic, Spanish architectural character and a private backyard retreat designed for true Arizona living. This one has it all! You'll enjoy mountain vistas, neighborhood charm and everyday conveniences.
Desert hues emerge subtly against the mountain backdrop, with a calming, earth-toned palette that reflects the surrounding landscape. This sprawling Spanish-inspired residence is set beyond desert-adapted landscaping, creating a seamless transition between environment and architecture. Stacked stone and stucco articulate the façade, while a latticed garden e and pony wall shape a quiet courtyard arrival. Layered materials and curated plantings ground the home in its setting.
Immerse yourself in calming desert vibes that radiate throughout the home. The artful interplay between authentic Spanish features and new textures and finishes complements the home's architecture perfectly. The living spaces unfold with a natural flow, offering distinct, yet connected, areas suited for both gathering and daily living. The sunken living room creates a warm, composed first impression. Just beyond, the family room is anchored by a quintessential beehive fireplace, with gorgeous exposed beamed ceilings, both reinforcing the home's timeless architectural character. A generous picture window frames views of the rear yard, while wood-trimmed sliding glass invite you outside. Double arched windows frame the saltillo-tiled garden atrium, creating a connection to the surrounding landscape. With multiple points of access to the rear yard, the home maintains a consistent indoor/outdoor connection, grounded in the rhythm of Arizona living.
The fully remodeled kitchen is a culinary hub with loads of personality, featuring driftwood stained maple shaker cabinetry with glass uppers, terrazzo-inspired solid surface countertops, recessed lighting and a cozy breakfast room that opens to the rear yard. The stainless steel GE appliance package includes range/oven, dishwasher and built-in microwave. An arched entryway opens the kitchen to the formal dining room which offers a classic farmhouse chandelier and wood laminate flooring. The formal dining room is easily adaptable for a home office or creative space.
The home features 3 comfortable bedrooms and 2 bathrooms, each designed with a timeless sensibility. The primary suite opens with a double door entry and offers privacy and retreat, overlooks the rear yard and features a generous walk-in closet. Wood-trimmed sliding glass doors provide easy access to the rear yard. The full primary bath includes a tiled Roman garden tub and doubles as a pool bath. Secondary bedrooms feature ceiling fans, dual-pane windows and neutral carpet. The hall bath offers a vessel sink, tile flooring, playful wallpaper and updated lighting.
Stepping out back, you'll indulge in an enchanting, remarkably private outdoor lifestyle that can be enjoyed rear-round. This desert sanctuary features a freshly overhauled Pebble Tec diving pool ('25), complemented by a new variable speed pool pump (2025). The saltillo-tiled garden atrium with wood beams opens out to a fully-covered patio, natural lawn area with stacked stone retaining walls and the pool. Landscape design includes 5 raised garden beds with timed irrigation, citrus trees, bougainvillea, agave, and palms.
There has been a significant investment into this exceptional residence, which showcases quality craftsmanship, impeccable design and an unbeatable location. Major 2025-2026 upgrades include a new 4-ton Lennox AC with heat pump (transferable warranty), new electrical panel, new water heater, solar hot water system, new garage door motor and springs, updated kitchen lighting, dual pane windows and a new Feather River fiberglass front door. A Rayne water filtration and softener system adds further functionality. There is a 2 car garage with ample parking slab for guests.
Steps from the Phoenix Mountain Preserve, residents enjoy immediate access to miles of hiking, biking, and equestrian trails that weave through protected desert terrain; an irreplaceable amenity for those who value an active, outdoor lifestyle. Morning rituals begin at Press Coffee or Proof Bread. Evenings unfold at Shea 32, Love Craft Ale House, Aioli Gourmet Burgers, Ave Brew, OHSO or over curated selections from Shea Cheese. Trader Joes, Sprouts, Whole Foods and Aldi are all nearby. Mercury Mine Basin Park offers nearby open space, while the transformative Paradise Valley Mall redevelopment (now PV Phoenix) brings a highly anticipated collection of elevated dining, retail and entertainment experiences just minutes away. This home is served by desirable Paradise Valley schools, including Mercury Mine Elementary, Shea Middle School and Shadow Mountain High School. This location also enjoys easy access to the 51, connecting you seamlessly to Downtown Phoenix, Scottsdale and Sky Harbor. This is a rare opportunity to live where mountain preserve serenity meets new urban accessibility; North Phoenix at its most connected and considered. Welcome home to a property that feels both elevated and authentic, capturing the true spirit of desert living.
