Backing directly to the mountain preserve on nearly half an acre within the gated Lookout Mountain community, this is the kind of setting buyers spend years hoping to find. With unobstructed mountain views, exceptional privacy, and direct access to the surrounding desert landscape, the home offers a rare connection to nature. Inside, soaring 14-foot ceilings and a dramatic wrought-iron entry create an unforgettable first impression, while expansive windows continually draw your attention back to the mountains. The floor plan simply works. Open where it should be, private where it matters, with five bedrooms, three bathrooms, and generous living spaces. The kitchen has been tastefully updated with an induction cooktop, newer refrigerator, microwave, dishwasher, wine refrigerator, abundant cabinetry, and extensive preparation space. The privately positioned primary suite captures some of the home's finest views and features a beautifully appointed bath with a steam shower. The backyard feels like an extension of the preserve itself. Surrounded by sweeping mountain views, it offers a sparkling pool and spa, built-in outdoor kitchen and barbecue, gas fireplace, and multiple places to gather, dine, or simply unwind. Additional highlights include a three-car garage, a new air conditioning system installed in 2023, a newer water softener, and a location within the highly regarded Paradise Valley Unified School District.
