Want all the amenities of a resort without having to share your space with any other holidaymakers? You’re in luck – this Scottsdale home is pretty much your own private hotel, with a pool, outdoor dining area, grill section, and even a putting green for family mini-golf tournaments. Soak up the sun in the backyard, popping inside every now and then to refill your drink from the bar cart or raid the kitchen for snacks. If the heat of the day gets too much, you can always head into one of the four luxurious bedrooms for an afternoon siesta, or cool down in front of your favourite show in the stylish living room. As evening falls, enjoy a float in the pool while waiting for the barbecue to heat up or gather around the massive table to plan tomorrow’s adventures. You’re within a ten minute drive of many of Scottsdale’s shopping, dining and entertainment centres, so there’s plenty to do without straying far – after all, it’s going to be difficult to tear yourself away from this home.
