Property available for either short or long term leases. Flexible rates apply depending on season & length of lease. Privacy and wildlife abound in this unique 1.2 acre North Scottsdale property. The main residence was designed to provide unexpected periodic peeks at Pinnacle Peak. Enjoy views from every room into the courtyard or untamed desert, observe wildlife in the wash, and witness stellar sunsets over north Scottsdale from the upstairs balcony. ''The Sand Castle'' desert experience includes a resort style pool and spa, built-in BBQ, wood-burning fireplace, and multiple indoor and outdoor seating areas allowing both family and solitary time. The comfortable main home has 3 bedrooms each with their own bath and lovely views. The upstairs den provides a private workspace. The spacious, well-equipped chef's kitchen will allow you to prepare meals at home. Proximity to extraordinary dining (the Owners have created a list of their favorites for you!) means you stop at AJ's Fine Foods for provisions only when you feel like it. Separated from the main house, both visually and acoustically, is another full house-much more than a casita. It sleeps 4 comfortably with a separate bedroom, walk-in closet, comfortable living area, full kitchen, covered patio, and 1 car garage. Located near golf, hiking & shopping and just a couple of hours from the beautiful AZ "high country", this home offers you the perfect Arizona vacation! You won't want to leave!
