8018 E VISTA BONITA Drive, Scottsdale, AZ 85255

Nestled in the heart of North Scottsdale, in a premier gated neighborhood on an acre swath of natural desert, lives a warm home brimming with character and charm. The elegant custom wrought iron glass front door sets the tone for what is to be discovered. A beautiful medallion greets you in the foyer along with a hand painted fresque and a large window into the decidedly European kitchen. A short hallway leads you to the cozy living room with a view on the Arizona sun room. There is a second quaint living area to the right, perfect for watching TV. The formal dining room boasts a hand painted fireplace, French doors leading to a patio near the pool. Another set of French doors open onto the sun room graced with abundant natural light and cooled by a mini split for perfect comfort. When it is time to cook, the kitchen will greet you with dramatic granite counters, over 30 European styled silver Ion cabinets for all your storage needs, a magnificent dual ovens Café stove accompanied by an equally impressive microwave, both with WIFI connectivity. The refrigerator complete the perfect environment for cooking bliss.

The master bedroom has a large sitting room as you enter, another mini-split keeps the sleeping area cool to create an ideal retreat. The master bathroom features the best of Grohe faucets, warm and inviting tile and its own private patio, once again graced by French doors and a large built-in BBQ.

The backyard offers ample space for all your outdoors needs. Largely paved, tiered to provide various areas to entertain. Two private patios, one off the master bedroom, the other off the formal dining room. There is a large gazebo adorned with colorful climbing vines and protected by a mighty wall of oleanders. If you feel peckish, you can access the rear of the back yard where a variety of loaded fruit trees will tempt your taste buds.

And if you want to walk in the desert for a bit of peace and quiet, you don’t need to leave your property. All you have to do is walk out of your house and head West. Saguaros, various cacti and all the native untouched vegetation will welcome you back with open arms, or should I say with open trails and natural washes.

This property features so many possibilities. One secluded, naturally preserved acre, strategically located in the heart of North Scottsdale, close to everything (school, several grocery stores, restaurants and freeways) and yet, very private. Come experience it for yourself.
