There simply isn't another custom home like this in the community. And at this price, it won't be available long. Bright, open, immaculate, and incredibly comfortable, the approximately 1,600 sq. ft. home features 9-foot ceilings, 4 sliding glass doors, 8 transom windows, custom paint, 5-inch baseboards, designer lighting, custom pendant lights, ceiling fans throughout, and solar/light tubes that bring even more natural light into the home. The gorgeous front door features an upper glass window and security screen door. The gourmet kitchen is both sophisticated and highly functional, centered around an enormous extended Quartz island with a beautiful custom green finish and no sink, providing exceptional workspace. Solid soft-close cabinetry, easy-access drawers, 36-42" upper cabinets, custom floating shelves, white subway tile, an apron-front porcelain farmhouse sink (that looks out toward Sedona's Red Rocks), reverse osmosis, stainless-steel appliances, a like-new induction cooktop, double oven, and striking chimney-style vent hood create a kitchen that is as beautiful as it is practical.

The third bedroom is especially versatile, featuring a built-in Queen-size Murphy bed, custom linen cabinet and shelving, two large east-facing windows with views toward Mingus Mountain and Jerome, plus a south-facing window bringing in beautiful natural light. Outside, the setting truly shines. Approximately 50 feet of Trex decking spans the entire back of the home, creating an incredible outdoor living space overlooking unobstructed Red Rock and Sycamore Canyon views. A gas fire pit makes the deck perfect for relaxing and entertaining, and the straight-on view provides a front-row seat to the community's Fourth of July fireworks.
