Description
Supplements: The separate guest wing, boasts a full kitchen, 2 generous sized bedrooms, 2 baths, living room, laundry, private entrance and garage, complete with sunset patio. This home is simply a masterpiece, in every respect, set in the incomparable, 8,250 acre, gated community of Desert Mountain. Desert Mountain's entrance is an easy forty-minute drive to Phoenix Sky Harbor Airport. Most of the community is between 2,600 and 3,800' above sea level, which means daytime highs about ten degrees lower than what Phoenix reports, and nighttime lows as much as twenty degrees cooler. All property owners have access to a private, fifteen-mile hiking trail system. Living in Desert Mountain provides very convenient access to the facilities of The Desert Mountain Club, an established, twenty-eight year-old, private club owned and governed by its Members, with a long list of amenities including six Jack Nicklaus Signature Golf Courses (along with four very well-designed golf practice ranges), six clubhouses with eight restaurants, one of the best golf performance centers in the country for swing analysis, lessons, golf club fitting, and golf club repairs; and horseback riding on a fifteen-mile long trail system located in and on top of the Continental Mountains at the rear of the 8,200 acre community (the trail system is an amenity for all Desert Mountain residents, not just Club Members). These trails rise to over 4,000' and provide astonishing views many miles in all directions. One of the Clubhouses, the Sonoran Clubhouse, is the Club's swim, tennis, fitness and spa facility. A $12,000,000 expansion and renovation of that facility was completed in October, 2016 to much acclaim. Since then, six pickleball courts have been added, along with a golf croquet court and a bocce ball court. It is now a remarkable amenity, adding tremendous value and enjoyment to the community's Club Member residents. Membership to the Club is not included in the purchase price of this lot, but they are available upon application to The Club.
