Willing to look at ALL offers! Designed and built by Paul Christian Yaeger, Frank Lloyd Wright/Taliesin alumni, this incredible home is situated up on Shaw Butte, North Mountain, with 260 degree views of the entire Phoenix city and valley, as well as major mountain ranges. One of the last homes Mr. Yaeger built surrounded by the Phoenix Mountains Preserve, with direct backyard access to one of Phoenix's best mountain trails. The house boosts masterful craftsmanship and organic features with an open floor plan and interiors of natural stone, tall vaulted main ceiling, wood beams and unique wall angles -- giving the house a clean modern feel with the warmth of classic mid century luxury. Every room has views to the mountains or city below.The house is a wonderful blend of indoor and outdoor living, with nearly 1000 sq ft of viewing decks.
Highlights of the home include natural polished marble floors in the large living room, dining room and open kitchen. Other rooms have real wood flooring plus natural fiber wall treatments. The living room has an impressive floor-to-ceiling architectural block fireplace and a hand-crafted spiral wood staircase.
The chef's kitchen has multiple pantries and top-of-the-line appliances (Sub Zero fridge, Viking gas stove, dual Thermador ovens and warming drawer as well as a Bosch dishwasher). Custom polished concrete counter tops and original wood cabinetry, built in the Wright tradition of understated progressive design, make a gorgeous and highly functional kitchen.
Two bedrooms overlook the city and have their own full baths and walk-in closets. An additional room can accommodate an office, lounge or additional sleeping quarters. The main upstairs master suite presents even more impressive views with its large viewing deck and many windows. The master bath has dual sinks with the architect's original crafted cabinets and a large step-in/step-down bathtub with separate shower, all looking privately up the side of the mountain. Even the huge walk-in closet/dressing room has city views.
