The Original Rancho Solano - An Architectural Landmark in North Central Phoenix Positioned within the iconic horseshoe of Rancho Solano, one of the area's original architectural residences, and a true architectural gem of North Central Phoenix. Designed around light, intimacy, and seamless indoor-outdoor living, the home is defined by floor-to-ceiling multi slide glass doors, expansive skylights, and a thoughtful connection to its .62-acre grounds. Mature, professionally designed landscaping by Arizona landscape architect Bill Tonnesen frames the property with sculptural greenery and privacy, creating a setting that feels both curated and serene. The chef's kitchen is designed for serious entertaining, anchored by a substantial marble island and equipped with Thermador appliances. The dual primary bedrooms, complemented by designer ensuite bathrooms, reflect a cohesive, modern aesthetic that complements the home's architectural integrity. A newly added luxury primary wing elevates the estate to an entirely new level, featuring a sophisticated bedroom retreat, spa-caliber immersion tub, outdoor garden shower, elegant laundry suite and private office - each designed with scale, warmth, and refined materials in mind. The detached guest house includes its own kitchen and bathroom, overlooking the resort-style pool and spa, expansive entertaining patios, and a private pickleball court. This is not simply a home--it is a legacy property within the rarefied setting of Rancho Solano.
