Own a piece of Arizona history in this fantastically charming masterpiece with a touch of celebrity . Akin to a boutique hotel, this exquisite Spanish- inspired estate has been lovingly restored with some modern touches. As you enter through your private gate, the tree-lined driveway will greet you with fountains, a romantic courtyard entry and bell-tower. Inside you will find 5 private en-suite bedrooms, hand carved mahogany doors, beamed ceilings, 120 ft grand hallway w/lighted brick arched ceiling, soap stone/leather granite counters, herringbone floors , a sumptuous parlor and more. Situated on 3 acres with city light & mountain views, the lush grounds offer a myriad of recreational choices, from a private wine cave w/ dining area, an 1800 sq ft pool with over a million hand laid tiles, a covered resort- style bar and outdoor kitchen, bocce ball court , 6-hole putting green and private garden to read & reflect . The 9 car garage offers a cantina & private patio where car enthusiasts can gather for hours, perhaps discussing how the home was originally owned in the 1970's by Andy Granatelli , the prominent businessman and CEO of STP, who was also a major figure in automobile racing events. Granatelli was known to hold lavish parties here and it's been said that many Hollywood faces graced the halls of this home, including the legendary John Wayne.
