Property Description

YOUR CAREFREE DESERT DREAM STARTS HERE! A newly reduced price makes this exceptional 1.3 acre property an opportunity worth a closer look. Imagine waking up to breathtaking mountain views, enjoying the quiet beauty of the Sonoran Desert, and having the space and privacy to create a home that reflects your own vision and lifestyle. Located in Carefree's desirable Velvet Shadows community, this distinctive Southwestern residence captures the character and natural beauty that make Arizona living so special. Majestic saguaros, native desert vegetation, dramatic mountain silhouettes, and expansive skies create a stunning backdrop for everyday living. Enjoy views of Pinnacle Peak, the McDowell Mountains, Black Mountain, Elephant Butte, and other iconic mountain ranges, with a sense of space and tranquility that is increasingly difficult to find. Inside, approximately 2,534 square feet offers three bedrooms and inviting Southwestern architectural details. Rustic beams, a planked ceiling, alder cabinetry, and a warm, welcoming atmosphere reflect the timeless appeal of the desert Southwest. The island kitchen with stainless steel appliances provides a natural gathering place for preparing meals, entertaining guests, and enjoying relaxed Arizona living. A dedicated area for a baby grand piano adds character and creates an inviting setting for music, conversation, and special occasions. The flexible third bedroom can accommodate a variety of needs, whether you envision a home office, guest room, library, creative studio, or hobby space. Thoughtful updates over the years contribute to the home's appeal, including an elastomeric roof coating in 2026, exterior paint in 2024, and a water heater in 2023. THE LAND, THE VIEWS, THE POSSIBILITIES! One of this property's most compelling features is its generous 1.3 acre homesite. There is room to imagine, plan, and personalize your own desert sanctuary, subject to applicable zoning, permitting, and site requirements. Envision a sparkling pool, an expansive outdoor entertaining area, a guest house or casita, an RV garage, a workshop, or a special space for collecting cars or pursuing your favorite hobbies. A peaceful garden, a sport court, or a beautiful outdoor retreat beneath the Arizona stars may also be part of your vision. A charming water feature adds to the home's potential for creating a relaxing outdoor environment. Whether your dream is a quiet escape from a busy lifestyle, a gathering place for family and friends, or a property with room to explore future improvements, the possibilities make this homesite particularly appealing. EMBRACE THE CAREFREE LIFESTYLE! Carefree offers a distinctive blend of desert beauty, small town charm, and convenient access to shopping, dining, golf, recreation, and everyday amenities throughout the surrounding North Scottsdale area. Spend your mornings enjoying the desert light, your afternoons exploring nearby trails and golf courses, and your evenings taking in colorful Arizona sunsets. This is a lifestyle that celebrates the outdoors, privacy, and the natural beauty of the Sonoran Desert. With an HOA of just $60 per year, the community offers an especially appealing ownership opportunity for those who appreciate space and a more relaxed desert setting.
