Impeccably renovated, this residence, a masterpiece by Vernon Swaback, exudes the unmistakable influence of Frank Lloyd Wright in its design. Nestled on a genuine hilltop retreat, this home stands proudly above the city lights, free from the constraints of any governing association. The seamless blend of architecture and unobstructed 360-degree views offers an unparalleled sense of privacy. As you step into the residence, your gaze is immediately captured by the expansive great room. Beneath soaring ceilings and flanked by dual fireplaces, a fully equipped bar beckons with seating for a dozen guests. The wall behind, adorned entirely in floor-to-ceiling glass, opens to a captivating outdoor space featuring a gourmet kitchen, putting greens, a pool, hot tub, and breathtaking (cont..) breathtaking views of Piestewa Peak. The kitchen has undergone a complete transformation with premium finishes and appliances. Meticulously chosen natural stone slabs complement a water-jetted marble backsplash, while new flooring seamlessly connects the five bedrooms and six baths. The owner's suite boasts picturesque seating and offers some of downtown's finest views. A lavish ensuite showcases an oversized double shower with multiple heads and a soaking tub. The primary closet, so expansive that it currently serves as a nursery, adds to the suite's luxurious appeal. State-of-the-art technologies, from Lutron Lighting to surround sound and a custom security system, have been seamlessly integrated. Accessibility features include a private elevator with direct access from the garage. To truly grasp the essence of this residence, an in-person visit is a must. At the age of 17, Vernon Swaback joined Taliesin and collaborated with FLW for over two decades. Founder of Swaback Partners, he continued his legacy with award-winning designs, including DC Ranch and Biltmore Estates. As the sole actively practicing architect who worked directly with Wright, Swaback's expertise is evident in every detail. Featured in "The Custom Home," this property comes to life through stunning photos and Swaback's own eloquent description: "Marriage of House and Site: A house should be a companion to the beauty of its setting, embracing color, forms, lighting, landscaping, terraces, and architectural extensions that unite the house with the land. Living in the mystery of beauty is performance art at its best."

That means we can display all the properties listed by other member brokerages of the local Association of Realtors—unless the seller has requested that the listing not be published or marketed online.
The MLS is widely considered to be the most authoritative, up-to-date, accurate, and complete source of real estate for-sale in the USA.
Estately updates this data as quickly as possible and shares as much information with our users as allowed by local rules. Estately can also email you updates when new homes come on the market that match your search, change price, or go under contract.
