About This Home
Architectural Masterpiece in Sunset Canyon - Designed by Bing Hu Perched high in the coveted Sunset Canyon corridor of Desert Mountain, this award winning, elevated contemporary residence featured in Arizona Foothills Magazine is a rare gem: a modestly sized yet dramatically sited home crafted by internationally renowned architect Bing Hu of H&S International. Built with uncompromising commercial-grade construction by Linthicum Construction and engineered by TOR Engineers, the home stands as a testament to enduring quality and visionary design. Clad entirely in striking zinc panels, and utilizing floor to ceiling glass, the structure features robust concrete floors, steel beams, for fortress-level strength and timeless appeal. Spanning an efficient footprint with separate guest quarters, it maximizes panoramic vistas that capture the essence of the Sonoran Desert: glittering city lights, rugged boulder formations, layered mountain ranges, and those legendary Sunset Canyon sunsets that paint the sky in fiery hues. The main level flows seamlessly into living spaces designed for effortless luxury and views that never end. The expansive Great Room, kitchen, dedicated office, powder room, and serene primary suite all frame breathtaking scenery. The primary suite indulges with a two-way fireplace and sweeping multi-directional views of the city lights, surrounding mountains and the feature boulders on the site, creating a private sanctuary. Outdoor living reaches new heights with a generous patio perfect for al fresco dining and sunning, anchored by a dramatic cantilevered lap pool, adjacent spa, oversized wok-bowl fire feature, and firepit ideal for year-round entertaining against the ever-changing desert backdrop. Downstairs, a private ensuite guest bedroom featuring an open corner fireplace offers its own views and direct walk-out access to a secluded patio. Also on the lower level is the oversized 5-car garage for collectors and storage. A standout 723 sq ft detached guest house provides independent living with multi-directional views, a kitchenette, full bathroom, storage, private patio, separate circular sauna, interior and exterior fireplace and outdoor shower perfect for visitors, extended family, or as a creative owner space or retreat. In a market where dramatic view lots rarely pair with such practical scale and architectural integrity, this home delivers extraordinary desert living. In summation, quoting architect Bing Hu "We used glass, we used doors, we used the roof to build a space, but the real thing that you want is not just wood or the windows. It's the space within that you create" Lifestyle Membership Available
