    What's special

    Welcome to Desert Highlands #679 where you will enjoy IMMEDIATE access to FULL CLUB PRIVILEGES upon Close of Escrow. As you enter this spectacular home from the lush private courtyard you are captivated by the soaring ceilings, intriguing curves, and exquisite woodwork. The original builder constructed the home for his personal use and showcases high-quality finishes that have been meticulously maintained over the years. As subsequent owners have left their mark, the distinctive ''Frank Lloyd Wright style'' endures. Reflected in the front courtyard gate and door design, the seamless integration of the home with the natural contours of the land (resulting in a modest street presence but a breathtaking interior), the kitchen corner window, intriguing architectural elements and the inspiring entrance that opens up to the expansive, open, light & bright space. With Pinnacle Peak views as a stunning backdrop, this 4 bedroom home in the world renowned Desert Highlands guard-gated Club community seamlessly blends elegant spaces with an inviting, casual Arizona lifestyle. The main level boasts an open floor plan, as almost every room accesses a private patio featuring breathtaking landscape and mountain views. The home exudes an impeccable warmth and style featuring newer, brighter interior paint in contrast with the rich natural finish of the cherry wood accents throughout. Luxurious travertine flooring flows throughout the home, creating a perfect balance of sophistication and comfort. The home features three private guest suites, a versatile loft space with a gas fireplace, and a main level primary suite with private access to a covered patio steps from the heated spa. The family chef will enjoy the professional grade appliances: Sub Zero, Wolf 6-burner gas cook top with griddle, double ovens, Asko dishwasher and a built-in drawer microwave. Every detail was considered to include the addition of "butted corner windows" above the kitchen sink to enjoy the full mountain views just beyond. The oversized granite slab topped island with ample seating space will quickly become the favored gathering place. The adjoining breakfast nook with a built-in fireplace provides a cozy spot for mornings and easy access to a kitchen patio. Down a few steps, the family room awaits with a sleek granite-topped wet bar, well-lit open display niches, and convenient access to the outdoor grilling station. The family room boasts rich floor to ceiling built-in wood shelving. The luxurious main level primary retreat features yet another relaxing interior fireplace, a spa-like primary bath with dual, comfort height vanities, large jetted tub, dual water closets. The spacious walk-in closet completes the space. Easy access to the spa and covered patio allow for a full retreat ambiance. Three additional ensuite bedrooms, one on the main level and two upstairs, provide ample space for family or guests. The backyard oasis is an entertainer's delight, featuring a private spa, a covered patio, built-in cooking station, outdoor fireplace, dining space, and a lush grassy area. The well sized three-car garage offers built-in cabinetry, workbench, and newer epoxy flooring. This special home is located within the private, guard gated community of Desert Highlands Club! N. Scottsdale's private club where FULL CLUB MEMBERSHIP PRIVILEGE IS IMMEDIATE! Club amenities include: an 18-hole Jack Nicklaus Signature course, Gary Panks' designed 18 hole putting course, 7,700 sf state-of-the-art fitness center, 13 tennis courts (clay, grass & hard surface), Pickleball courts, bocce ball courts, fishing pond, dog park and walking/biking path that meanders throughout the community. Finish the day at Jack's Pub or for more elevated dining, The Ventana room. What a place to start your next adventure! Desert Highlands is recognized by Platinum Clubs of America as being among the top 3% in the country.
