Rarely does a Cave Creek property offer this much flexibility, privacy and outdoor living in one remarkable setting. Situated on 1.23 acres with no HOA and Black Mountain views, this custom territorial home combines a spacious main residence, a fully equipped guest house and an oversized 3-car/RV garage--all just minutes from the heart of Cave Creek. The main home features 3 bedrooms plus a den and 2 baths, with a dramatic great room, high ceilings and an updated kitchen with granite counters, breakfast bar and LG appliances. The generous primary suite opens through French doors to both the resort-style backyard and a secluded garden patio--an inviting spot for morning coffee or a quiet desert evening. The separate guest house offers exceptional versatility with its own bedroom, bath, living area and full kitchen with quartz counters. Car collectors, RV owners and hobbyists will appreciate the oversized garage with tall ceilings, plus an attached air-conditioned office/bonus room. Outdoor living takes center stage with an expansive paver patio, built-in BBQ, firepit and multiple covered and uncovered seating areas. Enjoy the private heated pool and spa, practice your short game on the putting green, or relax while taking in the mountain views and colorful Arizona sunsets. Close to Cave Creek's restaurants, shops, galleries, hiking and live music, this one-of-a-kind desert retreat offers room to live, work, entertain and enjoy the Arizona lifestyle.
