Above, because of the large lot, the home is set back for more privacy
and views. Bordering the legendary Desert Forest Golf Course, the "Home
of the Pros" with memberships available. On the right, the pebble Tec
pool has recently been resurfaced. It features a shade cabana, swim-up
bar and adjacent BBQ.
Above, the cavernous Great Room with soaring cathedral ceiling is
a classic. The great room is the room of choice for entertaining in
Arizona. All your guests can easily congregate with conversation
areas, dining section, and media corner. The home's construction
has all kinds of extra touches, for example the tongue-in-groove ceiling
is constructed of 2 X 6 beams with a multi-layered roof on top.
Below, a close-up of several of the rooms areas.
Above, a key advantage of this property, is the lot size, 1 3/4 acre,
with room for a jet-size hangar and 2,000 sq. ft. casita in this area,
East of the home. Plans are available for the expansion. The
40 X 50 ft. hangar attached to the home has an air conditioned work shop
in the rear, and has a wing clearance of about 36 ft.
Below, the master suite with a true sitting area, and dual patio doors

adjacent hidden shower, large vanity and counter space, plenty of
storage for all your clothes. With a dual entrance on either side.
Below, kitchen has a pass through on the window so beverages and food
can be passed through to the pool. On the bottom right, wall
ovens, a vented indoor BBQ and a see-through fireplace that is visible

Above, the owner's Beechcraft Bonanza which he flew out of Skyranch for
years. The hangar has a 36 foot clearance, is 40 X 50 feet and has
an air conditioned shop at the rear. Many power tools, equipment,
and standard tools will be included in the sale. Interesting to
note, that the roof of the hangar was constructed to hold a helicopter,
and there's a ladder and hatch up to the roof for that purpose.
Years later, all communities in the area have banned helicopters,
including Skyranch and Carefree, however the beefed-up roof could be
used for a super observation platform and deck!!
Your arriving guests will pull up to this porte cochere. As you
see, the entire home is constructed of block.
