Land with Home for Sale in Scottsdale, Arizona

Behind the private gates of Granite Mountain Ranch, on 2.68 acres of meticulously landscaped desert in North Scottsdale, this Spanish Colonial resort estate is the kind of property that stops a search. A 4 bedroom, 4 bath estate with office and 4-car garage, spanning nearly 4,500 combined square feet across the main house and casita, a stunning pool and spa, a fully equipped four-stall equestrian barn, and Four Peaks rising above the private desert horizon. Every inch of this home has been considered, refined, and brought to life with the kind of care that makes a property feel not just beautiful but irreplaceable. Step through the private gate into the enclosed courtyard and the outside world disappears. A three-tier stone fountain, a wood-burning Kiva fireplace, a full-size hanging daybed beneath a vine-draped loggia, and stacked stone columns framing arched portals create an arrival experience unlike anything in this market. Divided-lite wood French doors connect the casita, the office, and the main house to this central outdoor room that serves as the living heart of the property. The 602-square-foot casita sits along the courtyard with a full kitchen, living room, full bath, and bedroom, equally suited as a luxury guest retreat, caretaker's residence, or private studio. Inside the main house, tumbled travertine floors, tongue-and-groove wood ceilings with exposed beams, decorative vigas, and arched doorways frame every transition. The home was professionally decorated, and every surface, fixture, and finish reflects that investment. The living room anchors the interior with a dramatic double-ring amber stone chandelier, a gas Kiva fireplace beneath illuminated plaster display niches, and a wall-pocket multi-panel sliding door that opens fully to the covered patio and pool beyond. The kitchen delivers at every level: SubZero refrigerator, double Wolf wall ovens, a six-burner gas cooktop with pot filler beneath a floor-to-ceiling stacked stone arch surround, warming drawer, butcher block center island, beverage cooler, skylight, and an eat-in nook with backyard and mountain views. The primary suite offers a high ceiling, Kiva fireplace, direct pool access, and Four Peaks views from the bed. The primary bath includes a BainUltra therapeutic air bath soaking tub beneath a garden window, a multi-head steam shower with rainfall head and multi-level bench seating, separate his-and-hers granite vanities with a sit-down makeup vanity, private water closet, and custom built-in closets for both. The three main house bedrooms each have dedicated en suite baths, and a private office overlooks the courtyard. The backyard is a world unto itself. A covered patio loggia with arched openings and stacked stone columns frames the Pebbletech pool with baja shelf, raised boulder spa with spillover waterfall, a natural rock waterfall, and propane and electric heaters for year-round use. A built-in outdoor kitchen with covered grill, granite bar top, and under-counter refrigerator completes the setting. The equestrian barn matches the main house architecturally, with cedar tongue-and-groove interior, four stalls with ceiling fans, pipe panel turnouts, feed room and an air conditioned tack room. Granite Mountain Ranch is a 315-acre gated community at 2,500 feet elevation with paved private streets, underground utilities, and a 100-year dedicated water supply. Ten minutes from Scottsdale National, less than 15 minutes to Troon North and The Four Seasons, and just moments from Tonto National Forest and the McDowell Sonoran Preserve. The community's 15-acre private equestrian facility includes two riding arenas, four riding pens, a training and obstacle course, wash bays, and miles of riding trails right outside the gates. The North Scottsdale corridor along 144th Street is home to world-class reining facilities, top-tier trainers, and premier horse breeders, making this one of the most sought-after addresses in Arizona for the serious horse enthusi
