The big-ticket work is done: all-new plumbing, electrical & main panel, new water heater, & 2021 A/C with re-engineered ducts sealed by Aeroseal to cut leakage 93%. HALO air purification, water filtration and softener. A custom steel-inlay, triple-lock entry door and high-efficiency windows keep heat out. The kitchen shines with polished emerald-black granite, under-cabinet lighting, LG Signature and GE Cafe appliances stillunder warranty. Custom-tiled primary shower and smart home tech. Near Black Mountain & Maricopa Trail hiking, parks, the Boulders & Civana resorts, Desert Ridge, City North, Mayo Clinic, Cave Creek and Scottsdale shopping. A HOME BUILT AROUND WELL-BEING, SECURITY AND COMFORT Every improvement in this residence was made with one purpose: to create a home that feels as good as it looks. Behind the walls, the work most buyers worry about has already been done. The plumbing has been fully replaced with clean new lines, the electrical system has been completely updated, including a new main panel, and the water heater is new. The air conditioner was replaced in 2021, and the duct system was re-engineered for efficiency, then sealed with Aeroseal, reducing duct leakage by 93%. The result is quieter, more even cooling and conditioned air that goes where it belongs. Clean living is built in. A HALO LED whole-home air purification system works continuously through the HVAC, while water filtration and a water softener complete a thoughtfully designed healthy-home package, including a dedicated filtered-water faucet at the kitchen sink. Peace of mind begins at the front door. The custom-built entry door features steel inlays, solid-core construction, triple-lock security and high efficiency ratings. The sliding patio door offers multiple locks and energy-efficient performance, and the windows have been upgraded to thicker, high-efficiency glass designed to hold back the Arizona heat in the living areas and bedrooms. THE KITCHEN The kitchen is both beautiful and serious about cooking. Polished emerald-black granite counters glow beneath under-cabinet lighting, complemented by a black undermount composite sink and matte black fixtures. The appliance suite is top tier: an LG Signature refrigerator with GE Cafe induction range, microwave and dishwasher, all with approximately four years of remaining warranty coverage. PRIVATE RETREAT AND MODERN CONVENIENCE The primary suite features a fully remodeled walk-in shower with custom tile and a generous, spa-like footprint. Upgraded carpet adds softness underfoot, and smart home technology throughout includes automatic lighting, app-based controls and a wall-mounted control panel, so the home responds to the way you live. THE TATUM RANCH LIFESTYLE Set within the gated enclave of Tatum Greens near the 4th hole, this home places you in one of Cave Creek's most established master-planned communities. Tatum Ranch is home to a private golf club with optional membership, two community parks with picnic areas, playgrounds and sport courts, winding walking and biking paths, and multiple shopping and dining centers close to home. The community is served by Cave Creek Unified School District. For those drawn to the outdoors, the high Sonoran Desert is right outside your door. Hike the summit trail at Black Mountain, explore Cave Creek Regional Park and Spur Cross Ranch Conservation Area, or venture into the Tonto National Forest and the Maricopa Trail network. Evenings offer something for every mood. Head to Old Town Cave Creek for its galleries, boutiques and authentic Western spirit, including the legendary Buffalo Chip Saloon and Harold's Cave Creek Corral. Neighboring Carefree offers the Carefree Desert Gardens and two of the region's most celebrated retreats, the Boulders Resort and Spa and Civana Wellness Resort. Luxury shopping, dining and entertainment are just minutes away at Desert Ridge Marketplace, the JW Marriott Desert Ridge Resort and City North, while Scottsdale's world-class restaurants, golf and shopping are about 15 minutes away.
