Majestic hillside masterpiece, with endless views of the mountains and city lights below of Scottsdale and Carefree! Upon entering this custom home, you are immediately at one with the layout, interior finishes, and amazing views. Perfectly sited on 2.7 acres, blending naturally with the massive boulders, the Sonoran Desert, and offering privacy and views in every direction. The unique crescent shape of this home resulted from an extremely narrow buildable area and the steep incline of Black Mountain. The home was designed & built using sophisticated and expensive commercial building techniques, with natural masonry and steel framing that minimized site disturbance. The foundation is actually integrated with the granite boulders & bedrock that is unique to the East side of Black Mountain. Carefully chosen natural cut stone, color-matched stucco, and patina copper enable the home to truly blend with the boulder-laden landscape. Careful use of eco-friendly sustainable materials such as bamboo wood floors laid over a cork substrate for a durable surface that eliminates any sensory disturbing echo within. Low level VOC paint and LED lighting compliment the many other eco-conscience decisions that went into building this home. As with any well planned and technically difficult project, this one-of-a-kind custom home took numerous years to build, and it would be impossible to build today for this offering price. There will never be another one like it, and it can truly be a legacy home passed through generations!
