Villa Paradiso Unrivaled luxury and sophistication in a grand Paradise Valley estate situated on over 12 acres. Set amid lush landscapes designed by Christie Ten Eyck, the breathtaking “Villa Paradiso” is a privately gated oasis in the Sonoran Desert. Designed by award-winning architect Vern Swaback, the main home is a sprawling 30,858 square feet with a 3,636-square-foot guest house that could easily be a residence all its own. Both incorporate the finest finishes and highest quality building materials, while exuding the warm, inviting ambiance of home. The main entry gate, one of three private gates on the property, leads into a long winding drive and is adorned with the custom emblem that was designed specifically for the home. It is an oasis set apart by its exquisite privacy and luxurious feel. Approaching the grand entryway along the circular driveway, you are surrounded by verdant landscaping with views of Camelback Mountain serving as a dramatic backdrop. The front entrance to the main home sits at the end of a coffered sky-lit walkway flanked by limestone columns and tranquil water features. A stunning glass paneled entry door showcasing that same custom emblem welcomes you home. The property was designed and built on an axis to maximize views of the head of Praying Monk on Camelback Mountain to the west, and the McDowell Mountains and Four Peaks to the east. Many of the interior rooms and outdoor living spaces were built with deliberate sight lines to these majestic landmarks. As you step into the magnificent foyer and entry rotunda, you are met with such views through generous windows and walls of glass. Italian limestone walls continue from the outside, and afromosia wood floors run the length of the halls in the north and south wings and carry into several rooms.
