Property Description

Luxury Close to the City, But a World Away! A stunning semi-custom T.W. Lewis executive home with breathtaking views of the Estrella Foothills on the 7th tee of the Nicklaus designed golf course. The home is built on a large, quiet, and private cul-de-sac lot with green space on one side - arguably the most desirable lot in the entire Fairways gated community and one of just a few homes with a fully finished, well-appointed basement. Enter the gated private courtyard with gas fireplace and cozy seating, then step into art gallery style entry, then view the wall-to-wall glass doors that showcase sweeping mountain and golf course views. Rich wood, travertine, Berber carpet, chef's kitchen with gas range and built in espresso maker, pool, hot tub, and fire pit, executive office, and many custom upgrades. The front courtyard features a gas fireplace, cozy seating, and beautiful palm trees in massive stone pots. The frontdoor entrance showcases a stunning gallery-style entry, where the artwork, richness of the wood floors, and high ceilings draw you into the home. Step further in, and your eyes are drawn to the formal dining / living area where wall-to-wall sliding glass doors frame the gorgeous pool, mountain, and golf course views. Then, delight in the chef's kitchen complete with staggered cabinets with numerous built-ins, granite countertops, two convection ovens, a Wolf gas range, built-in Miele coffee and espresso maker, a wine bar, and a large walk-in pantry. Connected to the kitchen is a charming eat-in breakfast nook, and then the open design flows into the family room with a gas fireplace surrounded by organic stone and an impressive mantle, built-in displays with recessed lighting, Berber carpet, patio access, and of course, incredible views of the backyard, golf course, and mountains.

Connected to the kitchen is a charming eat-in breakfast nook, and then the open design flows into the family room with a gas fireplace surrounded by organic stone and an impressive mantle, built-in displays with recessed lighting, new Berber carpet, patio access, and of course, incredible views of the backyard, golf course, and mountains. Roll-down metal shades provide security, storm protection, and heat reflection. In the other wing of the home, the spacious primary suite opens to the patio, where the windows frame the beautiful views. New Berber carpet, wood shutters, a spa like bathroom with a soaking tub and multi - jetted shower, and an over sized walk in closet with built ins make the master bedroom area a place of refuge to nestle in to at the day's end. Roll down metal shades provide security, storm protection, heat reflection, and keep the bedroom dark for fully rejuvenating sleep. The first floor includes a well appointed executive's office with beautiful built-ins designed with rich wood - an expansive desk, cabinets, bookshelves, and a window seat that overlooks the outdoor garden. Further down the hall is a full bathroom and the second bedroom ( currently used as an exercise room) with gorgeous views of the sunset, high ceilings, and custom wood shutters. Move downstairs while enjoying the organic stone wall that decorates the stairwell into the cool recesses of the fully appointed basement, including a kitchenette, spacious family room with built ins, a full bathroom, mini master bedroom with a large closet, a second downstairs bedroom, and even separate areas for crafting, sewing, storage, etc. This area provides a wonderful private retreat for guests or a place for family to spread out. The backyard oasis includes a covered patio area with pull across Sundrella shades. The pool and spa, with three waterfalls to reflect the light and water, offer a sparkling invitation to peaceful relaxation. The pool has new heater with the unique feature of electric or gas. The pool equipment has been recently updated. The outdoor gas firepit and conversation area is a great place to unwind as the night sky, unhindered by city light, emerges in all it's glory. The elegance of the outdoor oasis is accentuated by luxurious travertine pavers and seating areas. Golf enthusiasts can hone their skills from the comfort of their own backyard with the custom two - hole putting green.The three car split garage includes an electric vehicle charging station, an air conditioned storage room, built-in storage cabinets and a built-in work bench - a true man cave! Security cameras are installed on the perimeter of the home and connected to a 24-hour monitoring service. The home is wired for surround sound and includes a feature-rich On-Q smart home system. There is also a whole home vacuum system and a whole home water filtration system. Two brand new Trane A / C units were just installed, and the home exterior just painted. The Estrella community is located 25 miles from downtown Phoenix. Homeowners enjoy quick 15 minute access to the I-10 Fwy and all of the amenities of a great city, but treasure the moment when they cross the Gila River and climb into the Estrella Foothills, where the city fades from sight, and the natural beauty of the desert abounds. Estrella is a lakeside mountain oasis nestled in the Sierra Estrella Mountains in the Sonoran Desert Valley. The community has a small town feel, great schools within walking distance, and offers more than 500 acres of parks and open spaces, incl. 72 acres of lakes for boating and fishing, reduced rates for golf, trails for hiking, and two well appointed residents clubs with restaurants, fitness centers, pools, a heated lap pool, a water park, sport courts, ramadas, grills, fire pits, fitness classes, and more. Owner ship in Estrella also includesaccess to complimentary sailboats and paddleboats. This luxury executive home is truly an executive retreat - located in an oasis community in a gated neighborhood, on a quiet, private lot surrounded by the majesty of the mountains, the beauty of the unspoiled desert, and the rejuvenating green of the golf course. The external oasis is only matched by the luxurious amenities inside this gorgeous home. It's truly one of a kind! Furnishings are available outside of escrow on a separate bill of sale.
