Property is move-in ready.
The property was reconstructed in 2008, placing it within the 10 to 20-year age range defined for a 'good' rating. It is in move-in ready condition with high-end luxury features including dual kitchen islands, hand-built cabinetry, and 100-year-old barn wood flooring. While the home features premium architectural details by Candelaria Designs and appears meticulously maintained, it does not meet the 'excellent' criteria of being built within the last 10 years or having a full renovation within the last 5 years.
Elementary School: Cochise Elementary School (9/10).
Designed by the renowned Candelaria Designs, this home features rare, curated antique finishes including 100-year-old barn wood and 1800s Parisian doors, offering a level of character and authenticity rarely found in modern reconstructions.
The half-acre lot features gardens twice featured on the cover of Phoenix Home & Garden, complemented by a 1,400 sq ft patio, full outdoor kitchen, and a fruit tree arboretum, creating a premier outdoor entertaining space.
The extensive use of antique wood, hand-built cabinetry, and meticulously landscaped gardens requires a high level of ongoing maintenance and specialized care to preserve the property's storybook condition.
The heavy integration of Mediterranean elements and rustic antique finishes is highly specific and may not appeal to buyers seeking a strictly minimalist or ultra-modern aesthetic common in recent Scottsdale luxury builds.
An exceptional storybook home by Candelaria Designs, reconstructed in 2008, blends new Mediterranean with modern elements & attentively curated antique finishes. 100-year-old Iowa barn wood flooring to 1800s Parisian doors, each room tells a story in a warm & authentic setting.
