This distinctive Southwest Contemporary home is a one-of-a-kind creation by internationally renowned, award-winning architect Nathan LeBlang. With world-class craftsmanship framed by lush desert landscaping, this home blends easily into its natural desert surroundings. Set on a gently sloping hillside acre in the McDowell Mountain foothills, this architectural gem's smooth sculpted stucco walls, copper and wrought iron accents blend old world design with modern elegance. The resort-style backyard features multiple zones for relaxing and entertaining, with pool, spa, shaded pergola and decks, and newly installed pavers at driveway, walkways and steps. The forever, unobstructed views of Four Peaks and eastern mountain ranges create a backdrop for glorious sunrises, sunsets, and glittering city lights against dark skies. The grand double-door entry opens to sunlit rooms with floor-to-ceiling windows with exterior motorized, remote-controlled sunshades. World class craftsmanship is apparent in elegant architectural details - archways, rounded walls, circular framed ceilings, buttresses, and 5.5" baseboards throughout. The round gathering room is both creative in design yet comfortable with 3 modern synchronized ceiling fans, a woodburning fireplace, underscored by Emperador marble and travertine tile. Timeless, luxury finishes complement traditional to contemporary design aesthetics. The kitchen overlooks the gathering room and is appointed with newer stainless steel Sub-Zero and Wolf appliances including an energy efficient induction cooktop with downdraft vent, timeless clear alder cabinetry with double-sided glass doors and plentiful storage. Enjoy breakfast in the nook with an awe-inspiring Four Peaks sunrise. The spacious master suite's focal point the view, with floor-to-ceiling windows and motorized sunshades, sitting area, and luxurious bathroom with jetted soaker tub, large shower with granite slab surround, dual sinks plus a tucked-away makeup vanity. The closet's built-in dresser drawers will be coveted! The 2 additional bedrooms, study and den are separated, and each bathroom has a water closet for further privacy. The unique floor plan offers an open den plus a study. Both could be converted to bedrooms, while the extra-large powder room with water closet offers space to add a shower, converting it to a full bath. LeBlang designed the home to flow naturally with the terrain, using minimal steps where needed in a design maximizing light, privacy, and livability. The $250,000+ investment in the property includes cosmetic enhancements, upgraded interior and exterior components, plus an extensive landscape and hardscape redesign, full backyard and pool renovations, roof replacement, and 2 newer Trane HVACs with complete duct sealing for energy efficiency.
