Property Description

Behind the gates of Quail Creek, this distinctive Southwest home offers more than an active community. It hands you a picture-perfect lifestyle in the most beautiful setting. Your guests will enter through the custom gate and be welcomed into the enclosed courtyard with a turquoise bench, wooden door wall hanging, metal sconces and pottery. In the mornings, you'll have coffee facing the sunrise or in the back, with desert and mountain view. They'll be dinners with friends beneath the extended covered patio and evenings gathered around the fire pit under the Arizona sky. Inside, warm woods, rich textures and remarkable furnishings as if you walked into a showroom, create spaces with character rarely found in today's market. This home was designed for your dream Southern Arizona lifestyle! Step inside and the home's personality immediately sets it apart. The open great room with high ceiling, dining area and kitchen are filled with natural light and connect visually to the desert beyond. Carefully selected premium light fixtures also light up the rooms throughout the home and give each room that designer look. Warm, knotty alder cabinetry, porcelain wood plank tile flooring, quartz countertops, newer stainless appliances and carefully selected Southwest furnishings give the home a sense of place, (Tubac or Santa Fe?) rather than the generic feel of many retirement homes. The kitchen opens easily to both the living and dining areas, making the home equally comfortable for a quiet evening or for entertaining family and friends. But the real magic happens when the indoors and outdoors become one. Large windows and glass doors continually draw your eye toward the backyard, where an expansive covered patio substantially extends the home's living space. Pavers create multiple areas for dining (with gas stub for grilling), relaxing and gathering around the fire pit, while mature, professionally planned desert landscaping and towering saguaros provide the unmistakable backdrop of Southern Arizona. This is not simply a patio. It is an outdoor living room designed to be enjoyed. There are 2 suites with 2 full baths and a powder room for guests. The primary suite continues the home's Southwest character and offers a comfortable private retreat with bay window and sitting area, huge bathroom with a large vanity with 2 sinks, double-sized tiled walk-in shower with bench and a huge, extended walk-in closet. The split floor plan places the guest suite on the other side of the house with a bay window as well, ensuite bathroom with Mexican tiled mirror and tub/shower combination with extra wall insulation as it backs up to the kitchen wall. The office is large enough for 2 desks (as shown), and is currently furnished with a leather sofa, a specially crafted cabinet with turquoise inlays, and unique end table. Notice the custom window valance and built-in shelves. The laundry room is conveniently located inside the home off the garage with both upper and lower cabinets, a clothes bar, and built-in sink. The 2.5-car garage with 4-foot extension and epoxy floor includes dedicated golf-cart space and shelving, an especially desirable feature for enjoying the Quail Creek lifestyle. There's also a whole house surge protector to protect your equipment from power surges, gutters for our infrequent yet sometimes heavy monsoon rains, and a soft water loop for the installation of a water softener, if desired. And the SW lifestyle extends far beyond your property. Quail Creek is a guard-gated golf community offering fitness centers, pools, pickle ball courts, dining, bar, bistro, a ballroom, pro shop, technology center, pottery studio, classes, clubs, activities and countless opportunities to become as involved, active or relaxed as you choose. You can see that this winter only home was carefully built by its owners. It was created and cared for a little over 10 years. The exterior was repainted in 2024. There is an "Easy Water" whole house no salt filtration/conditioner system installed in 2023. Now it could be yours to enjoy! Oh, by the way, the furniture and furnishings are available by separate bill of sale!
