Nestled on a five-acre slope in Cave Creek, the Hidden Valley Desert House is a “long pavilion for living” masterfully designed by Wendell Burnette, FAIA.

A subtly rich material palette includes “shadow reflective finishes” of cold-rolled mill finish steel, Ebonized sustainable MDF, three dark finishes of sustainable resin-infused paper, colored felt wall panels, and integral color purple-black hand-applied stucco walls with embedded vermiculite. The thoughtfully designed layout features three bedrooms, flexible exercise and office spaces, private lower-level guest accommodations, and a spacious, protected pet run.

Oriented primarily to the south, the home is artfully sited among mature Saguaro, with a unique ecology featuring a teddy bear cholla field to the east. Elevated above the landscape, it captures sweeping views across the Phoenix Valley and toward the Continental Mountains, where the sunset paints the sky.

Built to a high level of craft, this home is irreplaceable at this price.
