7702 N MOCKINGBIRD Lane, Paradise Valley, AZ 85253

Just over an acre in Paradise Valley, single level, with Mummy Mountain in view from the pool.

You do not walk into this house. You walk into a courtyard first, past a raised agave planter to antique doors set in carved stone. Inside, the materials are the architecture: stone columns, hand-hewn beams, white walls, stained concrete, exceptionally high ceilings. Steel doors open the living spaces to a covered colonnade and a lap pool edged in cut stone.

Three bedrooms, three baths, 3,350 sq ft, all one level. A chef's kitchen is complete with concrete countertops and polished concrete floors.

Outside: a fireplace courtyard, a walled kitchen garden with raised beds, mature desert landscaping, and a two-car garage with room to expand.
