Exceptional single-level contemporary estate designed by Tyson-Murphy, perched atop a private 2-acre ridge-top lot in the prestigious, guard-gated Catalina Foothills 10 community. Tucked away on a quiet cul-de-sac, this 5,052 sq. ft. home features 5 bedrooms, 4 bathrooms, split floor plan, & includes a private attached guest house/casita w/independent exterior access. Upon entering, Floor-to-ceiling wood-trimmed windows bring the desert indoors throughout the home, w/Finger Rock framed from the dining room. Sunsets from the breakfast nook & west-facing rooms are spectacular, & evening city lights are visible from the casita, back bedroom & rear grounds. Architectural details abound, including exposed beams, art niches, a cozy double-sided fireplace shared by the living & family rooms, a 3 car garage with even more built-in storage.
