Bright, open desert living beckons you at this family home in the centre of Scottsdale’s Old Town. Cook up some waffles to eat perched on the breakfast bar before heading outside to take in the canyon views or stroll into the heart of your neighbourhood. The desert climate is irresistible, so you’d be forgiven for wanting to spend most of your time in the yard, lounging around the pool, kicking back by the fire pit, and practicing your stroke on the putting green. Situated on a quiet street not far from what’s considered “the South Beach of the desert,” all the shopping and night’s entertainment is just a walk from your front door. If you have some golfers in the mix, TPC Scottsdale is just a fifteen minute drive from the home. Back home in the evenings, gather and chat around the crackling fire.
