Impressive views of the Catalina mountains abound in this Ron Robinette-designed home in the gated Colonia del Sol neighborhood. Sited perfectly on a cul de sac lot with a 3-car garage, and situated atop a gentle rise, this lot offers the advantage of being elevated, providing unobstructed views of the surrounding mountains, the city lights, and mesmerizing desert sunsets, as well as supreme privacy. The property's courtyard entry is a picturesque introduction to this custom desert oasis. It offers a private and inviting atmosphere that sets the tone for the entire home. The main home boasts six spacious bedrooms, plus an office, providing ample space for a large family or plenty of guests. Each bedroom is generously sized and features private access to a bath (5 ensuites and ... 1 jack and jill"). The split bedroom plan is thoughtfully designed for comfort and privacy. The separate casita is perfect for extended family, guest quarters, a large private office, or its current use as a yoga retreat. It features a full bathroom, a versatile Murphy bed, and a kitchenette for added convenience. The chef's kitchen in the main home is a masterpiece with high-end appliances, granite countertops, and a large, eat-in center island. The inviting dining nook and ample family room with fireplace are adjacent to the kitchen, creating an inviting great room space for everyday living. Additionally, there is a large formal dining area and living area with a wall of windows looking toward the Catalinas. Step outside to your resort-like backyard with multiple patio areas, an outdoor kitchen, and a swimming pool and spa that have recently been redone with new PebbleTec and tile.
