With the rugged mountains of the Arizona desert as a backdrop, this huge ranch-style home is an oasis from the heat of the American True West. The huge floor-to-ceiling glass windows let natural light flood into the main living area, where you can relax and recline on one of the many sofas, challenge your friends to a tournament on the pool table or spin to victory on the table football game. There are multiple living areas in this impressive home, a large chef’s kitchen, a 19th-Century style bar, and four bedrooms configured to be ideal for adults, children, and any additional guests who are staying over. Outside, in the Arizona heat, is where this home really sets itself apart. Around the private swimming pool, you'll find sun loungers for topping up that tan, outdoor furniture for sitting together in the sun, and a barbecue to cook up a delicious feast of South-Western cuisine. While the trees that surround the home offer you a great degree of privacy, the bustling downtown of Scottsdale, with its museums, galleries, bars, and restaurants is only a 10-minute drive away. There’s also a plethora of world-class golf courses nearby and the incredible hiking trails in the mountains and national parks to the east of the city.
