Welcome to high-quality custom construction and sunset views in guard-gated Mirabel Club. As you approach, you'll notice the pristine curb appeal, in low-maintenance desert landscaping. The courtyard with wrought iron gate and water feature sets the mood upon arrival, and provides a central meeting space for your guests, with covered patios for both the guest house and one of the guest suites. Before stepping inside, take a moment to appreciate the 9.5' custom alder door, an impressive piece on its own. Upon entry into the living room, you'll immediately notice the thoughtful design, quality finishes, and the breathtaking views. With sunset bronze flagstone flooring, massive two-way stone fireplace, and beamed ceilings. This entertaining area also includes a full wet bar with copper sink and under-counter drink fridge. Imagine hosting your friends in this dining room while enjoying sunset views out your window. The ironwork on the wine cellar is another nod to the thorough attention paid to every detail.
Continue toward the kitchen, first stopping at butler's pantry with ice maker and dual-drawer dishwasher. The kitchen is comfortable yet luxurious, from the hand-finished alder cabinets to the herringbone terra cotta backsplash. High end appliances include 48" Wolf gas cooktop, Wolf carbon finish dual-ovens, microwave, and warming drawer. There is abundant cool storage, with a full-size fridge plus two cooling drawers along with a full-size freezer plus two freezer drawers, all Subzero. Continuous hickory flooring connects the kitchen and family room, with vega beams radiating out over the curved room, seamlessly connecting them into a flowing great room.
Across the home you'll find the owner's wing. The office features square wood beamed ceilings, with that square pattern duplicated on the hickory flooring below. The ample primary suite is complemented by a sitting room with kiva fireplace, a perfect place to take in the stunning views. The primary bathroom includes the same quality finishes you've seen throughout, from the travertine slab countertops, alder doors, down to the rustic iron towel holders. Completing the primary suite is the oversized closet, with built-ins from wall to wall.
Multiple guest suites provide privacy for all of your family and friends. First, upstairs you'll find an ensuite bedroom with their own loft living room, and access to the rooftop deck with amazing views. Also within the main house is a second ensuite bedroom. For additional guests, through the front courtyard is a full guest house, with living room and half-kitchen, private patio, large ensuite bedroom, and direct access to the third garage bay.
Fundaments have also been updated. The entire roof was recoated (2021), and all four AC units and two furnaces replaced (2021), as well as two large water heaters with recirculating pumps replaced (2020). Outside, the landscaping was redone with the entire irrigation system replaced (2021). The pool was resurfaced with mini-pebble finish, tile edge, and travertine coping, along with a wi-fi Aqualink control system added (2021) and the pool heater replaced (2020).
Finishing off this home is precisely where you'll want to unwind every evening, in the spacious and gracious backyard. The covered patio extends the length of the home, and includes an outdoor fireplace for those cool nights. Two additional uncovered seating areas offer options for taking in the sun. Entertain at the built-in BBQ, and don't miss the outdoor half bathroom. The backyard is a serene high-desert landscape, strategically placed to take in the picturesque Arizona sunsets while overlooking the golf course. Located toward the end of a cul-de-sac, so extremely light traffic, and all adjacent homesites have already been built.
Mirabel's weather is famously dry and sunny. Our risk of natural disasters is extremely low. Being higher and somewhat removed from the city means the stars are bright at night, the air typically much cleaner, and the daytime high temperatures can be about eight to ten degrees cooler than the Valley floor, every day of the year. You would be amazed how comfortable 95 degrees is at night or in the shade. So, being in Mirabel on a year-round basis is an attractive proposition.
In addition to the endless shopping and fine dining options all just minutes away, the owner of this home will be close to major league and collegiate sports, fabulous medical care (including the Mayo Clinic and hospital), terrific air service, and a wide variety of cultural attractions. This home is truly one of a kind, with quality materials that cannot be built for even close to this price today, and the rare combination of views while maintaining privacy, I encourage you to come see it today, you'll be glad you did.
