Sitting on 2.23 acres with extraordinary views of Camelback Mountain, 5950 Valley Vista Lane is a very private 12,295 sq.ft. Spanish Colonial Revival estate surrounded by mature trees forming a high landscaped hedged wall around the electronically gated property. It is undeniably one of the finest estates in Paradise Valley.

Pass through the private gated entry with hand-painted directional tile and drive along the long beautifully landscaped driveway to the front entrance of this warm and elegantly crafted estate.

When you enter this home through the Foyer, you look straight at Camelback Mountain through one of the many French doors that are in every room of the house.

The home is very bright and light, with a white marble kitchen, white marble bathrooms, and entertaining rooms that all open to the outside and into each other. High ceilings and light colored walls add to the ambiance.

The importance of creating a family friendly home influenced the design and finishings.

Enjoy the fenced and large heated pool and spa with private cabana, sports court with chessboard, large grass areas, putting greens and sand trap, and expansive play area with large playhouse, swings, slide, and mounted riding ducks.

The backyard also has a large outdoor kitchen and BBQ area, multiple cozy sitting areas, 7 fountains and a lavished draped outdoor living room, that brings the outside in and provides for carefree entertaining.

The private jogging path creates a sense of serenity and resort style living.

A separate exercise building with large view windows includes a small kitchen and full bath could also be used as a 2nd Guesthouse. Outside the exercise center is a rose garden on one side and beautiful private outside shower on the opposite side.

As you enter the separate and charming guesthouse with 2 bedrooms and 2 baths, living room, and full kitchen you'll appreciate the attention to detail. It feels like home and invites you to enjoy the sports court and grassy children's play area just outside the backdoor.

Magnificent craftsmanship, exquisite finishes and an eye for detail are displayed throughout the estate. Specially commissioned cabinetry hand-crafted by an Amish artisan, 9 fireplaces, hand-forged ironwork and a 16th-century wooded entry gate will impress you the moment you enter. The distressed hickory flooring, extremely large arched windows and French doors perfectly frame the Camelback Mountain views. Be sure to look up as you walk through to appreciate the unique ceilings throughout including lofty groin-vaulted, intricate coffered, planked, and iron-strapped trestle-beam ceilings.

Multiple hand-painted blue and white directional tiles throughout the property guide your way through the grounds.

Features include a fabulous, large designer chef's kitchen with white cabinetry, Carrara marble-topped island and a very large Pantry with a walk-in freezer. This kitchen has a great view of Camelback Mountain and opens to the 18-foot breakfast room with fireplace and Cielo Azul (blue sky) ceiling making you feel welcomed and cozy.

Opposite of the breakfast room the kitchen opens to the warm and inviting family room with multiple French doors, beautiful wooden beamed ceilings, plus a large children's game room - both leading to the outside patios, pool, and gardens.

The home also possesses a striking 2 story high walnut library with an annex room. The library additionally includes a staircase leading to an open loft for books with a patio housing a "secret" children's playroom. The library sits just across the hall from the large master bedroom and marble bathroom and large his and her closets.
