Modern desert sanctuary in gated Desert Springs. Newly completed in 2025, this architectural retreat in one of North Scottsdale's most exclusive gated enclaves offers nearly 5,000 square feet of refined desert living — with 5 bedrooms and 5.5 baths, which includes a detached private guest casita. A striking 10-foot pivot glass door opens to interiors defined by soaring 12-foot ceilings, minimalist lines, and a 24-foot bi-fold glass wall that blurs the boundary between indoors and out. The private backyard evokes a boutique resort, with a heated pool and spa, open-air fire feature, full outdoor kitchen, and thoughtfully designed desert landscaping. The detached 692-square-foot casita delivers a private, elevated guest experience, with its own wet bar, full bath, sleek fireplace and an expansive 18-foot bi-fold glass wall that connects seamlessly to the backyard - ideal for entertaining or creating a refined studio, office, or retreat space. The chef's kitchen is a study in form and function, centered around a massive quartzite island, with premium SKS suite of appliances including a dedicated 71-bottle wine refrigerator. Each of the five bedrooms features a private en-suite bath and walk-in closet, with elevated finishes and custom detailing designed for comfort and privacy. Expertly built by Esteem Homes for lasting quality and high performance, the home integrates smart technology for climate, lighting, and security, along with energy-efficient features including open-cell insulation, zoned HVAC, and recirculating tankless water systems. The home offers a versatile three-car garage configuration: a two-car garage on the side and a single garage in front - all finished with epoxy floors, EV charging, Wi-Fi openers, and a utility sink. An elevated roof deck offers 360° views of the McDowell Mountains, Pinnacle Peak, and the surrounding Sonoran desert. All just minutes from world-class golf, scenic trailheads, and the boutiques and restaurants of Scottsdale, Cave Creek, and Carefree. Includes 8-year structural warranty. Full list of upgrades available in documents. Experience unparalleled tranquility and timeless elegance where every sunset paints a masterpiece, and every day feels like a private retreat.
