About this home
Rarely available and architecturally thoughtful, this Rancho Solano residence, originally built in 1949 and fully transformed in 2022, sits on an expansive lot in one of North Central Phoenix's most storied enclaves. The renovation honors the home's desert roots while making it one of the finest entertaining properties in the corridor, defined by an extraordinary relationship between interior and outdoor living.
Disappearing window walls create a dramatic front-to-back connection, drawing the front and rear courtyards into one continuous living experience. A fully opening kitchen pass-through window extends that spirit further, adding a natural flow to the patio for al fresco dining and entertaining. The kitchen is anchored by full Thermador appliances, including a built-in refrigerator, oven, dishwasher, and convection microwave, with marble countertops that balance function with design integrity.
The split floorplan features two large primary suites, each with a vaulted ceiling, ensuite bath, and private outdoor space. The newly introduced primary wing is a true retreat: grand two-person soaking tub, dual walk-in closets, outdoor shower, private garden, and integrated electrical outlets built into pull-out cabinetry throughout. A beautifully designed laundry room with pull-out bins and abundant storage brings the same level of finish to everyday living.
The grounds, designed by renowned landscape architect Bill Tonnesen, feature mature mesquite trees, a resort-caliber designer pool, pickleball court, and multiple distinct outdoor living vignettes, each with its own character and privacy.
The detached guest house (540 sq ft) includes a full kitchen and bathroom, offering genuine flexibility for extended family, guests, or a private work retreat.
At approximately 4065 sq ft in the main residence, this is a legacy property for the buyer who values design, privacy, and the rare ability to truly live outdoors, year-round....
