Nestled within the exclusive guard gated community of Pima Canyon, this thoughtfully designed residence embodies a timeless aesthetic, blending classic architectural details juxtaposed against the rugged beauty of the Sonoran Desert. The approach to the home unfolds as a carefully composed sequence, where the curated landscapes provide a textured backdrop to the residence's stucco clad facade and gracefully arched entryways. The interplay between structure and setting establishes a welcoming presence, creating a seamless transition between built form and natural environments. Stepping through the striking custom glass and iron entry, the interiors extend an invitation, spaces conceived not as mere enclosures but as experiences shaped by light, material, and craftsmanship. The living room, an expansive yet intimate volume, embraces the outdoors, framing the ever-changing drama of the Catalina Mountains through carefully positioned openings. Natural light is allowed to filter gently, shifting throughout the day and lending the space a dynamic quality.
The materiality of the interior is rich yet restrained, warm yet enduring. Italian Travertine flooring, handcrafted woodwork, textured walls, each element is imbued with a tactile honesty that speaks to craftsmanship and permanence. Wrought-iron and copper detailing punctuate the composition, offering moments of contrast and articulation, reinforcing the human touch within the greater whole.
The kitchen is designed with both beauty and function in mind, offering a refined yet approachable aesthetic that caters to both casual dining and formal entertaining. Custom Cherry wood cabinetry is complemented by hand-selected granite countertops, which provide a rich visual contrast. Design and utility converge in a space that is as visually stunning as it is effortlessly functional. A paneled Sub-Zero refrigerator, sheathed in warm wood to mirror the surrounding bespoke cabinetry, creates a seamless fa??ade that speaks to the home's refined aesthetic. Just steps away, a spacious walk-in pantry offers discreet yet generous storage, while a central island, topped in honed granite, serves as an anchor for meal preparation.
Wrapping around the perimeter, an expansive secondary island with raised bar seating invites informal gatherings, offering a vantage point into the adjoining family room and reinforcing the kitchen's role as the heart of the home. At its culinary core, a professional-grade Viking cooktop is framed by a custom-designed hood, acting as a centerpiece enhanced by artisan-crafted tile work along the backsplash, an intricate, textural detail that elevates the room's cohesive, curated elegance. Adjacent to the kitchen, an intimate breakfast nook is bathed in morning light, offering a quiet retreat with views of the garden, while the formal dining room, with its statement lighting and classic wainscoting, provides a more structured setting for entertaining.
The residence's thoughtfully designed floor plan balances openness with privacy, creating distinct yet connected spaces. The owner's suite, privately positioned in the northeast wing, is a true retreat, offering a graciously proportioned bedroom with coffered ceilings, a fireplace for added warmth, and French doors that open onto a dedicated terrace. The adjoining bathroom features a freestanding soaking tub, a custom vanity with marble countertops, and a glass walk-in shower framed by hand-laid tile. Across the home, the secondary suites mirror the same attention to detail, with their own well-appointed bathroom and garden views that enhance the sense of retreat.
Beyond the interiors, a collection of outdoor living spaces extends the experience of the home, carefully positioned to maximize views while offering a variety of settings for relaxation and gathering. The rear veranda, shaded by deep overhangs, opens onto a series of tiered patios framing the pool, spa and outdoor barbecue. The arrangement is purposeful, positioning each element in relation to view, light, and movement. Native plantings and mature trees provide dappled shade, while meandering flagstone pathways connect the terraces, enhancing the sense of intimacy within the larger landscape.
Situated just minutes from La Encantada's premier shopping and dining, as well as La Paloma Country Club's renowned Jack Nicklaus-designed golf course, this residence offers a refined and comfortable lifestyle. Its seamless blend of traditional architectural elements, thoughtfully curated interiors, and connection to the surrounding desert landscape make it a home of enduring beauty and grace.
