This warm Spanish Ranch style home is nestled next to a protected forest preserve in Tonto Verde, designed to blend in with the spectacular mountain and nature views that surround it. With a focus on outdoor living, the roof top patio overlooks a putting green, fire pit, water feature, and sitting areas adjacent to the natural desert. The interior blends rustic touches, such as massive exposed beams and a hand carved mantle on a stone fireplace, with the elegance of granite and travertine. While invoking the feeling of a mountain retreat, behind the scenes structured wiring, a multi zone electronically controlled climate system, and energy efficiency make this home truly state of the art. A soaring ceiling in the great room and a wall of glass looking out on the preserve entice visitors to embrace all that the Arizona wilderness has to offer
