Sold for $4.7 million and located at 14699 E Paradise Drive in Fountain Hills’ prestigious Eagle Ride community, this sale emphasizes the power and reach of Compass’ private listing platform, which generated considerable momentum for, and interest in, the property.
Boasting five bedrooms, six bathrooms and 5,665 square feet of luxury living space, the home offers panoramic views of Camelback Mountain, with the home’s initial owners transforming the original hillside plot into a completely level lot and paying close attention to detail to create a seamless, cohesive single-level retreat.
“Compass gives clients a real advantage in today’s luxury real estate market,” said Aazami. “Our private listing platform gives serious buyers and sellers an opportunity to connect in a confidential, high-trust environment before a home ever hits the main market, reducing competition by giving them first dibs on exceptional properties.”
Meticulously designed on the inside by James McIntyre, the estate features distinctive entryway, hallway and dining room wall treatments by Surface Refinements’ Anna Sadler.
It also has plenty of eye-catching and attention-commanding elements throughout, from wrought-iron accents and exposed wood beams to expansive glass walls that offer breathtaking views of the surrounding desert landscape.
A spacious, well-appointed chef’s kitchen with high-end appliances and a six-burner gas range offers plenty of space to prepare meals, while custom cabinetry throughout the home provides ample room for storage. A Savant Smart Home System makes it easy for residents to manage lighting, temperature, sound, security, heaters, misters and more straight from their smartphones, while an expansive eight-car garage with lifts appeals to automotive enthusiasts and collectors.
The estate’s primary suite also features a retractable glass wall that opens up to a patio, offering easy access to the home’s negative-edge pool that reaches depths of up to eight feet.
“This is one of those properties that spotlights everything there is to love about life in Arizona,” Aazami said. “From its breathtaking scenery to its well-thought-out indoor/outdoor design, it’s a prime example of why metro Phoenix – and, particularly, the East Valley – continue to attract high-income buyers and residents from across the nation and around the world.”
A longtime fixture in Arizona’s luxury real estate sector, Aazami has cemented himself the broker of choice for discerning buyers seeking high-end properties and knowledgeable professionals to advocate on their behalf. With Compass’ results-driven team, innovative technology and expansive network and inventory at his fingertips, Aazami continues to elevate the state’s luxury real estate scene, setting new standards for success and results in today’s increasingly tech-driven market.
