Tonto Hills is one of the most beautiful places in Maricopa County with its close and distant mountain views, and at 3600' elevation it brings temps typically 10 degrees cooler than downtown Phoenix. This spacious home with no interior steps offers stunning views from almost every room. High-volume ceilings and white oak hardwoods offer interior beauty while large windows and doors bring the outside in. Entertaining is a dream in the chef's kitchen with wraparound bar, island, butler pantry, and easy access to the backyard patio for dining al fresco. The owner's suite with slider to the backyard has a large bathroom and 2 closets. There are 3 guest bedrooms plus an office, and 2 of the bedrooms share a jack-and-jill bathroom with private vanity area on either side of the shared tub/shower, and the 3rd guest bedroom with bathroom has access to the backyard. The oversized 3-car garage is 18' deep and has ample garage cabinetry plus a whole house water softener. Maximized energy efficiency through extra insulation added to attic and UV and heat-resistant film on most windows. With 1.268 acres, the property is landscaped for easy maintenance with mostly native plants and trees, but also with fig, pomegranate and wild mulberry trees. In addition, look for chilean mesquites, saguaros, palo verdes, barrel cactus, magnificent agaves, and other plants. Tonto Hills is adjacent to the Desert Mountain private club & community and is nestled against the Tonto National Forest. Outdoor enthusiasts will appreciate nearby trails for hiking, mountain biking, and horses. Another asset to the community is that Tonto Hills has its own water district (Tonto Hills Domestic Water Improvement District). Although Tonto Hills is a quiet community with a feeling of seclusion, it is only 13 minutes to Carefree/Cave Creek vibrant dining and entertainment. The home is walkable to the Raven's View wine bar. In addition, it is 14 minutes to Bashas' grocery, 17 minutes to AJs, 18 minutes to Target, 19 minutes to Walmart and 20 minutes to Bartlett Lake Marina.
