Enjoy privacy you've dreamt of owning with land that is nestled at the edges of Saguaro National Park and the Tucson Mountain range. Have your very own private ''resort'' hidden at the end of the road in secluded (but accessible) Chaos Canyon (running E-W) — where ''the chaos ends'' and calming begins. The property is the intersection of an old-world estate with new-world modern sophistication and amenities. The long and lighted rustic driveway greets you with rising rhyolite stone walls on either side, setting the tone for this solid and bright contemporary property that sits on about 6 acres and is offered with a builder's warranty or equivalent. Built in 1997/1998 the property was purchased by the current owners in November 2021 and then remediated and remodeled (actively from January 2022) through to about November 2023 and was not lived fully in until mid-November 2023. The newly remodeled property has been lived in less than one year. The goal of the remodel was to investigate and remediate any issues, to update, and to remodel the property with a simple and understated elegance using contrasting materials that form a canvass for any interior designs. There's no HOA (although there are neighborhood covenants with the two other nearby properties to protect you so you can have both peace and protections at your own private getaway). The property aesthetically offsets ruggedness of materials offset with elegant refinement and its setting captures the very essence of Arizona as the American Southwest, having stunning views of the saguaro-forested green desert also replete with mesquites, palo verdes and other desert flora covering the mountains towering above the property to the south and the west, and views of city lights and U of A to the east at night. The property offers 4 bedrooms and 4 baths and has 4225 SF of total interior living space, a 311 SF covered patio off the main kitchen supported with 150-year-old reclaimed oak timbers and a wood-burning fireplace for patio warming, together with a new industrial misting system installed in 2023 for patio cooling. The property has 3 fireplaces, all dual fuel (gas or wood). (In the dining room there's also a 150-year-old reclaimed barnwood dining table mounted on a concrete pillar with steel beams). The finished garage is 676 SF with its own AC with space for a workshop and it has ceiling racks for ample storage with new polyaspartic floors and 10 LED panel fixtures for a very bright garage (color temperature and dimming adjustable). There are brand new garage overhead doors plated with Corten steel with a sealed perimeter to prevent insects and critters. There are no homes in views to the south and only one in view to the west in the distance, and a neighbor over the hill to the north-east. The views eastward include other homes quite a distance off from this beautifully appointed property that contains stunning landscaping in its own right, including extensive custom outdoor pathway lighting, many mesquite, palo verde, and other trees (Texas Laurel, several species of palms, a cinnamon tree, olive tree, etc.) and shrubs (rosemary, jojoba, Texas ranger, Spanish lavender, etc.) combined with elegant cacti bisected by a stone pathway and aesthetically rusted steel railings. All yards except the front yard are enclosed with rock walls and/or custom metal & cable fences and gates. There's also a raised culinary herb garden below the kitchen window as part of the landscaping. Outdoor sitting areas are almost everywhere amidst the lush landscaping and as well on porches and around the very large swimming pool, on the backside of which is also a sitting area with win chairs for peaceful desert overlooking. A Zen-like garden graces the west-northwest side of the property with a heated Japanese soaking tub, a heated outdoor shower, and a private sitting and dining area. The main structures of the property - interior and exterior - and the pool design and placement were uniquely designed by award-winning architect Rob Paulus on an arc radius (see bird's-eye aerial photos) and it has been featured in design magazines and a popular music artist filmed a music video hit song at the property. The structures on the property are built on a radius of about 100 feet, and the main residence is a curved arc of about 100 feet in arc length. The structures on the property are also built like fortresses (steel roof, concrete, split-face block and steel frame structures) atop and into the side of a rhyolite (igneous) rock hill that had to be blasted-out with dynamite to excavate for the structural foundations. There are polished industrial concrete floors on the interior throughout except for the bedrooms in the main house that utilize 40x40 porcelain white concrete tiles to give a softer feel. The four interior showers and baths are all done in natural quartzite stone and marble pebble, and the bathroom, guest house, and laundry counters are natural limestone, whereas the kitchen counters are Caesarstone for durability, with accents of limestone on the kitchen windowsills. The laundry room also features a large limestone counter for folding clothes and an integrated ironing board and storage cabinets. There are plaster walls throughout the interior living spaces where there are not masonry split-face block walls. All windows frames, and exterior doors and frames, are completely custom, one-of-a-kind welded iron. The windows are all double pane. The remediation and remodel also includes, but is not limited to, (A) new custom wood and other cabinets throughout from Anything Wood supplying ample storage; (B) all new plumbing fixtures (Grohe, Franke, Toto, etc.); (C) all Lutron electrical devices, Lutron Smart Devices for critical controls from your phone; (D) all new LED lighting, including a 90 foot monorail art gallery lighting fixture that goes down the elegantly curved gallery hallway; (E) Italian Beluga leaded crystal spot lights for art in the entry and master and all new interior; (F) solid core and frosted glass interior doors with new hardware; (G) new closets (California Closets). The master bathroom includes Robern lighted medicine cabinets and a Robern lighted mirror in the master bath, an Anzzi freestanding stone composite soaking tub, dual Scarabeo Italian sinks, and a stone shower that has one full side as a window looking out to the beautiful landscape views to the south. In addition to the above, the remodel included, an all-new appliance and plumbing fixture package exceeding $85K that includes a chef's dream kitchen - that is huge (~400 SF), and that has a massive (~ 9 ft x 5 ft) Caesarstone waterfall island - including: (a) a Bluestar professional 48 open burner range with up to 22KBTU burners that go down to a simmer and that can be quickly changed to also have a stovetop charbroiled or griddle as the need arises and has two gas ovens with French doors for ease of access (Iron Chef Michael Simon and Giada De Laurentiis, for example, have featured Bluestar ranges in their kitchens); (b) a 48 Bluestar stainless hood and with a 1400 CFM external blower to evacuate cooking smells rapidly and quietly; (c) a 48 True Manufacturing professional refrigerator; (d) a Gaggenau (German) speed oven; (e) a Miele (German) Futura dishwasher; (f) a 24 lighted Zephyr wine cooler; (g) an 18 KitchenAid trash compactor; (h) a 42 Franke stainless steel sink (main kitchen) with a Franke disposal having a Grohe commercial faucet and a reverse osmosis faucet for perfectly pure water for coffee or drinking; (i) a 19 round Franke prep sink (main) with a ½ HP Badger disposal and Grohe faucet; (j) a built-in (and gas-plumbed) 44 TEC 60KBTU infrared grill in the outdoor patio just off the kitchen; (k) new oversized Electrolux washer and dryer; (l) a Wolf gas cooktop in the Guest House (GH) kitchenette; (m) a Sub Zero 24 refrigerator in the GH; (n) a Frigidaire over the range microwave in the GH; 24 (o) a Kraus stainless steel sink with Grohe faucet and disposal in the GH; (p) a new LG washer and dryer in the GH; and new tankless, instant hot water heaters (Main and GH). New one-piece Toto elongated porcelain toilets with a vitreous enameled finish were used throughout the remodel. There are 6 AC units on this property: 2 split units (Lenox), 1 package unit (Trane), and 3 mini splits (Mitsubishi in living areas and a Fedders in the garage) used for rapid cooling in specific areas, including the master bedroom to give it a good chill for sleeping at night without cooling the entire house that low at night. All of the living-area AC units (5) were replaced with brand new top-of-the-line Lenox, Trane, and Mitsubishi systems in November of 2023 and have extensive transferable warranties. The property has commodious storage spaces, including extensive cabinetry and customized storage racks in the garage, per above. Other buildings include a large block structure that encloses the 2500-gallon water tank (that buffers you from the water utility and provides additional storage space) followed by a state-of-the-art, whole-house and multistage water treatment system with softener, carbon and UV purification and is sediment-filtered down to 1 micron. There is a WiFi irrigation controller and constant water pressure via a pump set to 90 PSI that delivers 70PSI of filtered, descaled, and softened water to the houses, and 80 PSI of descaled water to the irrigation system. There's also a block-enclosed pool equipment hut to dampen noise and protect the equipment. The permitted remediation / remodel also included but was not limited to (1) roofs inspection & repairs; (2) over 70 window pane replacements; (3) electrical inspections, repairs, & new wiring with whole-house surge protection; (4) plumbing inspections, repairs, & new plumbing; (5) living spaces sealed on the exterior perimeter and all windows and doors sealed with industrial seals; (6) exterior doors have automatic door bottoms to insure good threshold seal; (7) new window screens; (8) new plaster and painting; (9) 3 new Ecobee smart thermostats with remote sensors; (10) two 2GIG security system panels with Honeywell devices; (11) the pool plaster and tile was completely chipped out and replaced with PebbleTech finish in 2022 with upgraded tiles and LED lighting in 2024, and all pool equipment was replaced with the exception of the heater that is still in good working condition. The Guest House is fully self-sufficient for temporary or long-term guests, and fully remodeled to the same level as the main house and has a large ¾ bathroom with an elongated WhiteHaus sloped sink, laundry, fireplace, and a kitchenette. There is a new 400A electrical panel that is solar ready.
