About this property

Hidden, Lush Treasure Close to Everything...Your Own Private Resort!

Come on in, set down your bags and stay awhile! Jump in the HEATED pool, soak in some Arizona sunshine (or not - we have a HUGE covered patio), catch a Spring training game at either Cubs Park or Hohokam Stadium (Oakland A's), or go play 18 at the prolific golf-courses Valley wide.

Whatever you do, we know you will love this home. Located on a quiet cul de sac. You can be anywhere from Downtown Phoenix to Tempe to Old Town Scottsdale to the Sky Harbor Airport in just a few minutes!

No expense was spared when this house was extensively renovated both inside and out in 2012 - no detail was overlooked. Welcome to our resort-home away from home!

The Gourmet Kitchen is large with nearly every amenity. The island has a 5-burner gas range and sink and is set up for seating on the one edge of the island. The surrounding counters provide additional working areas along with the convection oven, special Advantium/microwave oven, and huge refrigerator with purified water and ice in the door. There is an additional refrigerator in the utility area that has additional ice as well.

Immediately off the Kitchen is custom, banquette seating for a large group.

Also in this same Great Room as the Kitchen is the HUGE leather sectional big enough for the whole gang and a entertainment center with a 65” flat screen TV with surround sound, Blu-ray, and DirectTV.

Next to the Great Room is a room that has a beautiful billiard table and a formal dining table. It all flows seamlessly together. Even though it is a big space with wonderful high ceilings it is still warm and not cavernous.

Master bedroom #1 has a King bed with a large lounging chair for two and an en suite with a walk in shower with controls for two separate showers simultaneously. There is a jetted tub, a bidet, and a double sink.

Master Bedroom #2 has a Queen bed along with a set of trundle beds and an ensuite.

Bedroom #3 has a Two Twin beds.
Bedroom #4 has a Queen bed.
Bedroom #5 has a Queen bed.

There is a luxury bathroom near bedrooms 3, 4 and 5 that has a double vanity, tub, and a walk-in shower

Nearly every room has dimmable lighting to set the mood for any occasion. With multiple skylights throughout house there is abundant natural lighting.

The outdoor space is certainly not overlooked in any way. There is a large covered patio with table seating in one area and another area has vignette with a couch and cushioned chairs. Ample deck allows for gathering or dining in and out of the sun/stars. A portable fire pit and chairs can be enjoyed on cool evenings. The fenced, heated pool is large enough to play or exercise. The outdoor kitchen has a large gas infrared grill, sink with hot/cold water, and an integrated beverage well to ice down some favorite refreshments. The sound system will add atmosphere to any occasion. And a high-end mist system can take the edge off on a warm, dry day. There also is a nice sized lawn area for play and contrast to the deck. Finally, since the inside has spectacular lighting, we have carried that to the outside as well to facilitate enjoyment both day and night!!

Parking is not an issue with garage space for two vehicles and driveway space for six more.

Plenty of shopping and restaurants are one to three miles nearby in Mesa Riverview or Tempe Marketplace.

This home was featured on a local TV segment called Cool Home is conjunction with a historic home tour in our neighborhood - check out the video by clicking on the video icon at the top left corner of the photo above.


For quick response to any unlikely issues, we live within a few minutes drive.

Exceeded Expectations!
From check-in to check-out this host and beautiful home exceeded our expectations. An in-person check-in and tour of the home got us off to a great start. The kitchen and pantry were fully stocked with necessities and included many extras for our use. The bedrooms were immaculate and the beds very comfortable. We had plenty to do with the pool (heated to 84 degrees), the BBQ grill and patio area, the billiard table, the theater style flat screen TV, a variety of games and fun things to do near by. We couldn't have been more pleased. checkavailabweekend.

Beautiful, Immaculate and Well Appointed Home
We were a multigenerational family of ten and all enjoyed the lovely house, plentiful common spaces, comfortable and well appointed bedrooms and dining areas. The pool was warm and inviting and the gardens were colorful and beautiful. Our hosts were wonderful and most attentive! Thanks for a joyful time!. .

Annual family getaway
This home was perfect for our annual family baseball trip. Catherine and her husband made sure everything was easy and were attentive to our needs. The bedrooms were laid out perfectly, so everyone had their own space. The living room was set up so we all could watch a movie (or a ballgame) together as a family. The grandkids loved the pool and the backyard was very nice. The home was centrally located to all the events we were attending. We would definitely love to come back!

Spacious home for a family/group
This home was perfect for our annual cousin’s trip. It was spacious and open enough where we weren’t on top of each other. The gathering spaces were perfect for our group. The backyard was a plus. We ended up not using the pool because it was dirty. The pool guy came to clean it as we were leaving. While I understand the weather can’t be controlled, it would have been nice to be able to use it. Outside of the couple of instances of unexpected people, I would definitely book again.

Wedding Stay
We stayed at the property so we could all be together for my son’s wedding in Mesa. This home is beautiful and well cared for. The hosts were amazing and checked in on us and helped when we needed them to. I highly recommend this property if you are wanting a beautiful and peaceful home to stay in that is close to many places and plenty of room to spend time together. I would book this property again if the need arises.

Great house for a large family
This was THE BEST house for our family’s Labor Day weekend together! Our older son and his wife, their 2 year old, and 3 month old stayed in the room with a queen bed and twin bed. Owners had a pack n play (& also a high chair and booster seat) for the baby to sleep in. This room is nicely situated on one end of the house separated from the commotion of the main living area. It also has its own bath for the most part as it is only shared with everyone else when coming in from the patio/pool area. Our other teen and young adult children and my husband and I had spacious comfortable rooms on the other side of the main living area. It was such a comfort to have the gate around the pool and high door handles on any door that led to the back patio/pool area for the safety of our adventurous 2year old grandson. While most of our activities were at ASU in Tempe or in Scottsdale, the house was an easy 10-20 minute drive to everything we wanted to do. We had a few logistical questions before our stay and the owners were east to communicate with and very accommodating when they could be and had good explanations when they couldn't be.

Great place for reunion with friends
Catherine’s house was a the perfect place to gather with our friends and their kids. She and her husband were very gracious hosts and made everything easy. There was so much space that despite having 4 kids and 4 adults it never felt crowded and everyone had their own place to hang out. The backyard was amazing, as was the pool. We didn’t explore the area as much as we wanted to because of the blazing heat, but it’s in a great location close to everything. I would highly recommend this house for anyone staying in the Phoenix area.

One of the best homes we have stayed in!
Amazing property located within 20 minutes of downtown Phoenix! This house was absolutely stunning and spacious! Had everything we could have needed or asked for. Owners were local and ver helpful! Came over at 2 am when we arrived to walk us through the hosue and make sure we had everything we needed. Couldn't have asked for better owners! We will definitely be back to Phoenix and stay at this property hopefully!

Thoroughly enjoyed our entire time there and took full advantage of the beautiful pool as well. Kitchen was fully stocked with all dishes and glassware.

Fantastic!
This property is easily the best property we have stayed at in AZ! The inside is spacious, clean, and very comfortable. The beds were incredible. There were 8 of us so we used almost every bed in the home and we all agreed that the mattresses were top notch! We also cooked all but one dinner in the amazing kitchen. The backyard is beautiful, and the patio with the misters was just perfect. Cannot say enough about the house, it was awesome.

Such a wonderful place for a larger group (7 adults 4 children) We had friends for dinner one night (we cooked all but one night) We had everything we needed for all meals, smoothies, drinks, etc. Two refrigerators, speaker system inside and outside. An amazing large couch for comfortable seating. Heated pool, plenty of outdoor seating, lots of safety for keeping the children safe around the pool. Just a great all around place with very kind, hospitable hosts.

We've raised our family in Mesa and love it here!

Why they chose this property

With a large extended family and friends, we love to entertain so this made sense. But most of our kids have moved out so we don't use this property to it fullest and want to share it with others.

What makes this property unique

Close to it all and so many amenities - what's not to love?
